I learned just recently that dbzer0 has a great piracy community that is blocked by lemmy.world . I’m not saying I’m looking to switch instances or anything, but it did get me wondering what else might be blocked by my instance that I wasn’t previously aware of.
While we’re at it, I’m curious what communities might notably be blocked on other instances as well. So we might as well just make this a question about what might be blocked by any particular instance, not just my instance.
So, what’s blocked on some instances that folks might not have realized is blocked?
I haven’t checked out Beehaw in a while, but I used to enjoy spending time there. Some people didn’t like it because of how heavily they curated their instance, but I really enjoyed how polite it was. It ultimately discouraged a lot of people from going there, which they saw as good, but most outsiders saw as bad.
As .world ramped up in volume, I had more and more to interact with here, and I ran out of time to be instance hopping so I haven’t checked what they’re up to lately.
Overall, blahaj seems to have done a better job doing something similar while not alienating people. But if you want to see a Lemmy instance that decided to take the route less taken, maybe give them a look.
Beehaw is the best run instance on the fediverse no question. I generally like blahaj as well but it can get a bit rowdy lol
