Is it possible for a user to query the state of a given lemmy server’s federation state?

According to the lemmy documentation the server can be configured with one of three different states of federation:

  1. Open
  2. Blocklist
  3. Allowlist

Unfortunately, I joined a lemmy instance that was set to “allowlist” and therefore I couldn’t interact with most of the lemmy fediverse :(

I’m wondering if it’s possible for non-users to query a server to see what federation state it’s set-to, so that users can be aware of how limited their content will be before they signup.

    anyway, I’m posting here to figure out what data can be queried. Otherwise, it’s manual entry and that’s a maintenance nightmare.
