It’s absolutely the defederating that worries me more than the blocking. I have seen talk about nontrivial lemmy instances mulling defederation enough to keep an eye on it though.
Comment on Do you refrain from participating to a community if it's hosted on Lemmy.ml ?

If your home instance is lemmy.ml and it’s just people using communities on instances other than lemmy.ml, then you still get the full experience.
If instances are defederating with lemmy.ml, then you’re missing content.

there’s a website out there showing exactly this,but for the life of me I can’t rememeber the URL >_<

There used to be this, but most of the instances give errors nowadays:
defed.xyz/check?name=Lemmy.ml&software=lemmy
This one seems to work: fba.ryona.agency/?reverse=Lemmy.ml

At least the latter one is just showing which instances the named instance has defederated from, not which instances have defederated from the named instance.
That’s easy to get by checking /instances on a given instance already.
The problem is that you’d need some kind of spider that crawls all of the instances to get the reverse of that.
The former one does seem to show it.

It does, it is reverse search.
What you are talking about is the first search on that tool, this is the last one.
