Why YSK: Choosing an instance with defederation policies you’re most comfortable with is important to make your Fediverse experience smooth in the long run.
Here is a chart showing the defederation count of each instance.
Instance | Defederated with how many other instances |
---|---|
beehaw.org | 405 |
feddit.de | 101 |
lemmy.world | 63 |
lemmy.ml | 44 |
sh.itjust.works | 4 |
exploding-heads.com | 3 |
You can get it by going to the instance’s instance list and scrolling/Ctrl+Fing down to “Blocked Instances”. To find the instance list, go to https://your-instance.url/instances
, for example, https://lemmy.world/instances
Beehaw did defederate from Lemmy.world, though, due to the open sign up policy meaning that users could bypass their account creation restrictions, creating additional workload that their moderators could not handle with the current Lemmy toolkit.
