Defederation blocks communication both ways, I believe.
How does this Dev Team interact with the official Lemmy repository? Based on the Reddit post where you were directing people to message the Mod team rather than visit the Lemmy GitHub page, somehow I get the impression you guys are working on a forked version of Lemmy rather than contributing to the core repository. Is that accurate?

Can we reboot server to fix GitHub issue?
I reported an issue on GitHub, and the devs are asking if our instance owner can reboot and provide some logs to help troubleshoot. Reaching out here in hopes the instance owners see this? Not sure the best way to contact them for stuff like this.

Is cultured meat considered "real meat" or "kosher" for your purposes? (I hope I'm using the term correctly)
