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
I get you. I’m left leaning politically but after seeing life under totalitarian leftist regimes first hand, that’s a hard pass for me and I find myself struggling with interacting with people who think that’s okay.
Even though I like lemmy more than kbin, I’ve been thinking of switching too because Earnest sounds like a great guy whose philosophy is more in alignment with what I believe in.
