      Hrm, I have a suspicion that it was a false positive by the automod (maybe it didn’t like “kill this idea”?):

      Update (2025-07-22T02:37Z): The moderation action was a false positive, and has been reverted [2].

      Does an instance ban block future posts by that user from being federated in?

        Correct, future posts/comments. It’s like getting banned from every community on that instance. They also can’t send direct messages to users on that instance.

          They also can’t send direct messages to users on that instance.

          Can a user on the banning instance message the banned user? If so, can the banned user reply?

            Can a user on the banning instance message the banned user?

            I’ve never tried it so I’m not sure.

            If so, can the banned user reply?

            I’ve never tried this either, but I highly doubt it.
