Federation Tab in Instance Settings wont show up.

Had to turn of federation on one old instance, since the owner requested me to do so. When switching to the Tab, i can only see a request going out to update abuse reports, no other request in sight. Didn't see any error related to federation tab in dev console either.

Sidenote: is it enough to set isSuspended to true on the instance table in database to stop federation to a certain instance?

That page was removed in 018aa6381d (2022-06-29), commented out code referencing was removed in 892a900aee (2022-09-03). Solution would be to go to /about#federation, which is also the path that you will be led to when you use the federation menu item.

Solution would be to either remove that menu item from the admin panel or show the /about#federation page inside of the admin panel.

removing is not an option tbh. the panel is needed, not just for moderation, but also to yeet old dead instances, sicne mk/fk doesn't stop sending stuff towards them

The question was not about removing the panel itself. It is already gone (as I commented earlier), but it is identical to the /about#federation page; the duplication probably being the reason for removal.

The question was merely whether to remove the navigation link in the admin panel in favour of the menu item, since its duplicated.

It probably would make sense to have it in the admin panel as well since it does have some admin stuff like blocking and disabling sending activites to an instance.

Honestly, i wasn't aware that it was a menu item in the more section. I don't think it makes sense to have it there tho since its clearly an admin tool and does make more sense to have it on the admin section
