Not because I've had any kind of bad experience with users on this instance, but I don't care for the posts on lemmy.blahaj.zone. I honestly just got tired of seeing the "Rule" posts; it's like 90% of their posts!
Rate-limiting could also be applied at the federation level, but I'm less sure of what the implementation would look like. Requiring filters on a per-account basis might be resource intensive.
