Except that means you defederate from everyone but whitelisted instances in that scenario. If I recall, it doesn't work as a blacklist, but as a whitelist.

    You're thinking of LIMITED_FEDERATION_MODE, which is different from AUTHORIZED_FETCH.

    Looking into it, aren't both of these only Mastodon and not part of ActivityPub itself? I can't find details on them outside of Mastodon.

    And what prevents the post from getting published to other instances from different sources?
