the nature of federation/decentralization makes it a bit hard to get a central list. some instances publicly list which other instances they blocked and which they federate list. but other than checking each instance one by one, I’m not sure there’s a way to know.
I think you can see how many instances an instance has defederated from here, in the “Bl” column https://github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmy-instances. scroll down to All Lemmy Instances
You can check for any instance who they have federated with and who they have blocked by navigating to their /instances page. For example for Beehaw: https://beehaw.org/instances
That link is showing lemmy.world as blocked. I’m still new to all this but isn’t that a reputable instance?
Explained here: https://beehaw.org/post/567170
TL;DR: Beehaw does not currently have the resources and/or tools that they feel are necessary to moderate the incoming users from lemmy.world.
Well shit, I guess I gotta leave beehaw because now half my subscriptions are dead now.
Yeah it sucks a bit. Signed, a recent ex-Beehaw-er.
I’m on lemmy.world now and it’s all good.
I’m not sure if it’s exactly the same thing, but you can click on Instances at the very bottom of the instance, or add “/instances” to the url e.g. https://lemmy.ml/instances to see the list of blocked instances.
