  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

On feddit.de, lemmy.world is only temporarily defederated because of CSAM until a patch is merged into Lemmy that prevents images from being downloaded to your own instance.

So I'll just be patient and wait. It's understandable the admins don't want to get problems with law enforcement.

Won't that lead to some horrible hug-of-death type scenarios if a post from a small instance gets popular on a huge one?

Maybe a system where the files federate after 3 upvotes from outside the original instance?

That'd still be exploitable. You could just run 3 of your own instances. Coming up with a system to stop malicious users that can't be gamed would be tricky.

Caching only if some number of your own users upvote might work.
