    There are 3 categories in settings on your server, as far as I know: Linked, Allowed and Blocked. I don’t know the difference between Linked and Allowed, but yes, these links contain multiple lists on the same page. The format is the following: https://domain.tld/instances, you will normally find from 1 to 3 lists there, (the Linked, Allowed and Blocked lists). Linked is normal, Blocked is defederated. Idk what Allowed is but I think it is also federated so 🤷

      Linked are servers that your server knows about (that have communicated with it)

      Allowed, or the allow-list, if present means that the server can only federate with servers in the allow list. This is the most restrictive setting possible.

      Block, or disallow-list, means that these servers may not federate with yours. This is where servers go generally when they are “defederated”.

      Thank you for the clarification. The problem I have is:

      Note that dbzer0 on the federation-checker.vercel.app shows we are being blocked. fba.ryona.agency shows that too, and apparently we are edgelords,don’t moderate, and have done something wrong with free speech…

      So something somewhere is broken…

        The problem with dbzer0 is the same we had talked about before (edit: I talked with someone else from lemmy.ninja about this topic, your instance was blocked before). It’s old news. It’s from when you had a bot problem. Ryona has a cache and doesn’t clear it too often.

        The problem with toot.foundation has nothing to do with that, though. I have no idea why they would block you. You can find the up to date list of blocked instances on a mastodon by going to the https://instance.tld/about. For example, for toot.foundation, which does block lemmy.ninja, here is the updated blocklist at the bottom, you have to click Moderated servers: https://toot.foundation/about

          Okay. Thank you or your time. I’m just trying to identify if I have a user that is harassing people or something.

                  These lists are not weapons

                  I downvoted the post with this in it because they are used as weapons. Take it from a fedi veteran. I remember niu.moe and how people spread lies about technowix with literally zero provocation.

                    Yeah idk that drama. Tbh I’m just pissed about the defederation situation and am looking for places that aren’t as isolated. I googled trying to find drama about technowix and didn’t find it.
