Lets say I have an account on Lemmy.cats, which bans posts about dogs. Through this Lemmy.cats account, I post a dog pic on !dogs@lemmy.dogs. Is this allowed?

    It would be up the lemmy.cats admins. First they would have to see it, but they definitely could ban you for that. I don’t think any communities have policies that detailed yet, but it’s certainly a strong possibility.

    My understanding is that the lemmy.dogs admins could unban you if they disagree with the rule, but you would only be allowed to participate on that instance.

    I’m general, it would be totally fine. The goal is precisely letting people do that.

    But the admin of one instance could block you for whatever reason if they so desire, so I can’t guarantee you that will absolutely never happen. Not likely to happen though, as long as you always double check the rules where you’re posting.
