It's a potential FOSS replacement for discord, nice to move your friends who are hooked on discord but to lazy to try matrix/xmpp/whatever (once stoat has covered the voice channels). Appart from that no, I don't think so.
Yes it needs extra steps if you are selfhosting and is not supported in the third party app clerotri for example. It seemed an hassle enough that I did not try it on my selfhosted instance.
Ah! If you have never heard of it I can tell you: it's the foss, self-hostable equivalent of Discord. Except we are still waiting for the voice channels.
Well I am disappointed that it's not updated (or at all under Stoat name) on the F-droid repo. But no, since the voice chat is not there yet, you don't need to care at the moment. :]
Very interesting read!

The guy got stuck in Germany after getting training during the lapland war and then found himself fighting on the east front. I mean he might have been an actual POS nazi but that's not to be read straight from that link.
I personally do not block. I have always hoped to see changes of heart in people I disagree with, and I also have been on much more abrasive communities, lemmy is kept relatively tidy (at least from my instance's point of view).
I have updated the OP, I don't really know how it appears in crossposts.
