Comment on Hypothesis: Insufficient moderation tools lead to instance protectionism, which leads to a decline in the overall discussion quality on Lemmy

  lemmy.world has been defederated and has defederated some pretty large instances. On the othe hand lemm.ee is probably the instance with one of the most open fed lists

    DUMB. Just another reason for the average user to not bother with the platform IMHO. I can’t be arsed to figure out who is censoring or who isn’t I just want it to work.

      You can view all blocked instances by viewing the /instances page and scrolling to the bottom.

      For lemmy.world you just check lemmy.world/instances

  Off the top of my head, LW accounts can’t see posts from beehaw, hexbear, or piracy communities on db0 due to defed/blocks.

    Whaaaaaat. See this is the shit I’m talking about. Stupid I have to watch out for these kinds of pitfalls that I only know about because somebody happens to tell me.

      I agree on that point, I have built a site to check for that defed.xyz but you still have to query each instance manually. It’s just the way Lemmy works, some research is required when creating your account. I could write you a whole spielt on what criteria you should look at but the short answer is that if you want something big that “just works” lemm.ee might be the place for you.

        Appreciate the feedback, I definitely want it to “just work”.
