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
meh. to each their own.
That’s the whole point of the fediverse, at least from my perspective. embrace the smaller communities as much as the big ones. same with open vs closed. they all serve their purpose and minimizes a homogeneous environment that allows niches to exist, much like the early internet.
