I made a blog post discussing my biggest issues with Lemmy and why I am kind of done with it as a software.

You can already block federation with certain instances. And the only ones who can upload images are users that are locally registered to your instance.

I dont want to block full federation i want to block image federation from other servers so when the big ones are attacked with csam my server doesnt download it. If someone uploads an image to a community on my server does it not federate and get downloaded by my server?

Thumbnails from remote posts are stored on your server by default. However there is a setting to disable this.
