It's necessary because we had a transphobic troll target us for a while, who would create throw away accounts, join the channel and post all sorts of horrible shit where everyone could see it.
So we needed a system that means that accounts like that aren't exposed to our main community spaces until we're reasonably confident that they're legit.
It's the same reason we use an application on this lemmy instance.
Oh that's fair
