It’s their instance, their rules. You can join another instance that doesn’t defederate from them or make your own. That’s the beauty of the fediverse design. It doesn’t matter if we’re okay with it, we have options to get around it unlike with centralized platforms.
I mean, they do have control over it in a sense. They can defederate from it so it’s no longer on their instance, which they did. You can still access the community from other instances though, like you’re doing now, so it’s not really a big deal. This is how federation is meant to function. People running their instances by their own rules.
I agree though, their rationale for defederation from this community does not add up for me either. But at the end of the day they can be as irrational as they want with their instance.
