    This has nothing to do with other instances. The join-lemmy.org site is run by the Lemmy developers and they decide what happens with that site. They think it’s problematic that lemmy.world is as big as it is (as one of the points of the fediverse is decentralization). So they removed lemmy.world from the listing on join-lemmy.org.

    Note that this is in no way a defederation or anything of that sort. The site just doesn’t show lemmy.world, that’s all.

      my comment was mostly a joke, but it doesn’t contradict your point, lemmy.word got too big(relatively) so it got de-listed to flow new users to other instances

        Sorry for not getting it, it’s just that sometimes people (understandably) get very confused about the technicalities of the fediverse and mix up things like defederation and stuff like this. 😅

        Consider a /s in the future :)

          it’s ok, it was a reference to the 2008 finacial bubble, i knew there was the risk younger people wouldn’t get it
