Vented some of my rage here:

I appreciate having an outlet for my rant. But it was not enough. I am too contained for this level of rage. I needed to expand the rage outlet to !mildlyinfurating@thelemmy.club but was blocked. SDF ignores that host (as we know).
Being blocked from unleashing outrage is in itself infurating.
So then I found furiouslyinfuriating, but it was hosted inside the shitty walled-garden of Cloudflare, which the corporate bootlickers of sh.itjust.works ironically supports.
I think I need an outragiouslyfuriouslyinfuriating community.
There is a first for everything. Lemmy users cannot arbitrarily post to unfederated /communities/. To federate to an external community, at least one user on the host (SDF in my case) must subscribe to it. To do that, they must search for it by its full name. IOW, use the search tool to search for something you already know exists. Sometimes it takes a couple attempts because it tries to contact the external host on the spot at that moment. If it finds the community, then the user must subscribe to it. Then they can post there, as well as anyone else on the same host.
Only one person needs to be subscribed. If the first subscriber unsubscribes, then I believe it goes back to the original state of being an unknown (unfederated) community.
The problem in the case at hand is if an SDF user searches for a specific known community hosted by thelemmy.club, that whole host is defederated. So the user-hostile search tool assaults our dignity by outputting no results (instead of doing the dignified diplomatic thing and explain to the user that thelemmy.club is deliberately defederated). In fact, this is a bug. I am reporting it. brb.
(update) Added a bug report:
