Is there a quick way to see what instances are federated with each other? I know for a while (and maybe still are) beehaw and Lemmy.ml defederated from Lemmy.world. Are they still defederated? Is it worthwhile to post on their communities if those users won’t see it?
There’s no matrix to show generally who’s blocked or linked, some smart web developer might create something like that, but for now you have to look at each instance individually through the Instances link bottom of page.
Unfortunately they made an ill advised change to the instances page in this latest version of Lemmy. Before it presented linked instances on the left and blocked instances on the right. Now it’s one giant column separated only by an obscure header. That’s making it difficult to to see if an instance is blocked or linked on a page search. I hope they don’t leave it like that.
