Just thought I’d note this. Main beneficiary so far seems to be piefed.ca.

        Yeah, I was editing the code yesterday and realised we were both wrong. What it actually does is prevent the automatic bulk federator, which is a tool only admins have, from fetching those communities. It doesn’t affect the manual community fetcher, which is what users use. So it doesn’t limit user capabilities, only admin capabilities for automation. Also, the commit you linked is super out of date, the code is very different now.
