Because with a federated model, servers can have different rulesets for their members, and and whitelists are an easy way of enforcing that.
Sucks for the users, good for the admins. If you have an alternative method for this, feel free to make a PR to lemmy and let server admins know of your update.
If you can’t code and don’t want to learn to code, but it’s still important to you, you can hire a developer on fiver to help you.
Servers could certainly curtail or contain some of the information of their members, but then again, if those servers restrict the ability to access other communities by a large amount, the userbase of that server would be pretty pisspoor and ignorant.
Still, I think it’s important to reflect on the unpleasantries initiated here, so bear that in mind.

Thanks I guess.
You’re good.
