Why YSK: Choosing an instance with defederation policies you’re most comfortable with is important to make your Fediverse experience smooth in the long run.
Here is a chart showing the defederation count of each instance.
| Instance | Defederated with how many other instances |
|---|---|
| beehaw.org | 405 |
| feddit.de | 101 |
| lemmy.world | 63 |
| lemmy.ml | 44 |
| sh.itjust.works | 4 |
| exploding-heads.com | 3 |
You can get it by going to the instance’s instance list and scrolling/Ctrl+Fing down to “Blocked Instances”. To find the instance list, go to https://your-instance.url/instances, for example, https://lemmy.world/instances
I’d have to see some specific examples to pass judgement.
Here ya go: https://lemmy.ml/post/1167199
Edit: be sure to scroll down for the admin comments on the matter.
And note that I do not know if they have since changed course on this for lemmy.ml
Is this the admin response you’re referring to?

This seems to have been taken out of context. Their response seems to be about a supposed “white genocide” some white supremacists have thought up and I fully agree with him that that’s bunk.
I don’t know how to share a specific context with N number of context like I could on Reddit yet. See the comment they’re replying to. They’re only using “white genocide” as an example of something people wouldn’t call you a “genocide denier” over you disagreeing with.
Holy crap. This should be it’s own post. Just purged all the “serious” communities I was following on there.
I know what you mean but I had to laugh because I linked a post. That is to say, it was its own post haha.
I’m not going to lie, I’m constantly waffling between Lemmy and kbin in no small part because Lemmy (the software) is maintained by that same admin.
I’m using Lemmy because it looked easier to set up but damn, once there’s kbin apps I might have to look into switching my server over to kbin.
As far as I know, kbin doesn’t require JavaScript either. Which might be another plus considering the Lemmy vulnerability that was just exploited using JavaScript.
While I also don’t like JS, I just want to point out that not having JS on the website does nothing to prevent an XSS attack that injects JS into a site. This is more of a back-end kind of problem.
I appreciate the clarification, thanks.
