    Sure, but why would someone running a near-isolated instance want to list it there? They would just end up dealing with a lot of annoyed & disappointed users.

    It comes across to me as a “your instance must be at least this tall to ride” policy, not a “you must federate with everyone we tell you to” policy.

      Maybe they only want to deal with a specific niche. For example a university that only wants to federate with other academic organizations
