This also applies to de-federated instances, actually. You can still post to communities on an instance that your instance de-federated from, but the post won't be sent properly. This is more difficult to do - possibly we could store a set of de-federated domains in the active UserSession
to check this.
I just read this comment on Lemmy:
One way to do this would be to check if the host instance is in the
MlemStats.main.hosts
set. If it isn't, we would attempt to contact the domain to double-check. If the domain is unreachable, display a warning that the server may be temporarily or permanently down. We should also replicate this warning in the "New Post" sheet, as the user can access the post composer without visitingCommuntiyView
.
