I'll admit I don't know much about the specifics of Lemmy, so I assumed it has the same issues as Mastodon. There's still the issue of defederation? And notifications (new post/reply) are sent to the home instance of every subscribed user and include content, right? I think it would be better to send only small "something's new" push notifications, having the client reach out for any data or even metadata. Also, having user identities be cryptographic keys could solve the defederation problem, but I understand that the user experience would be very atypical. Restricting moderation drama to one particular instance is to me a very important feature of decentralised systems, and the possibility of being excluded from the larger community over such drama is a serious fault, even if that's probably less likely with Lemmy.
