#mastodev There's a way (in Rails, I think) to tell Mastodon to not bother trying to talk to a specific other instance, without defederating from it completely, but I can't remember what it is. Any ideas?

(Context: a couple servers are down and Sidekiq is hanging up a lot trying to deliver information to them because they're timing out.)
