Doesn’t really need to be a comprehensive federation list, but in the interest of admin transparency, I’d for sure like to know what instances we’re defederating from, and the reasons for defederation (spam/brigading/extremism/illegal content/etc) so I can avoid them elsewhere. Maintaining a sticky post in this meta community with defederated instances would be fantastic- unless there’s somewhere else I can see it.
I’m seeing a bit of drama rolling around regarding beehaw and lemmy.world, as well as the well known issues with lemmygrad, and I’d like to see this instance hopefully avoid a lot of that drama. And transparency of who/what/why we’re blocking is key to that.
Here generally just enter the instance name with /instances added to look it up for any instance
Ahh. Didn’t even notice there’s a built in instances tab. Thanks.
I still think it would be smart to give reasons for defederation just like you would for post/comment removal or bans.

Same reason everyone blocks lemmygrad. You don’t want a WELL ACKSHUALLY every time you say China did something bad.

Here’s the link to the federated/defederated instances: https://lemmy.one/instances (you can find it at the bottom of the page on all Lemmy instances, just FYI)
