Ya, on Lemmy's end there'd still be control over the removal of content.
Though I do wonder if it even makes sense for interop to come from Lemmy's side? After all, Lemmy's just one of many implementations of ActivityPub. Kbin, Mastodon, and other softwares can freely traverse Lemmy with varying levels of usability. Instead of implementing Aether interop from the Lemmy side and give Lemmy access to Aether content, it seems more sensible to make Aether interoperable with the ActivityPub protocol. Of course this isn't exactly feasible without a maintained fork.
It does make more sense the other way around you are right, and the issue really is that it is unmaintained
Aether is based on Scuttlebutt I think? Maybe I should poke around upstream and see if any bridge exists already.
