Question prompted by the fact that I can see a post from exploding-heads dot com, an instance I thought both Lemmygrad and Lemmy.ml have blocked:

So I check the allowed/blocked instances list to see whether it’s still there, and the entire blocked list seems to be gone on both instances:

    The blocklist moved from a config file to the database, but as far as I can tell, it wasn’t imported. You need to manually set it up again, though you can now do that via the UI

      The instance admin needs to set it up, right? Tagging @muad_dibber@lemmygrad.ml, as this seems quite important of an issue to address. Wouldn’t want the troll raids to happen again if all these instances are accidentally unblocked now.
