Why the fuck does Aussie zone block so many instances? You guys okay out there?

[–] ryannathans@aussie.zone 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

No wonder I am not seeing shit, how do I see what's blocked?

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)
[–] ryannathans@aussie.zone 4 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Any sites that give me a list of what an instance has blocked or not blocked? To pick an instance

[–] mutual_ayed@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (3 children)

https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/

https://slrpunk.net/

https://sh.itjust.works/

Those three are a good place to start with sane defaults.

For absolutely no filter there's https://lemm.ee/

There is also https://lemmy.world/ which is so generalized as to come under fire from the far left and the far right.

More exclusive than the above but more inclusive than aussie.zone are the following.

https://hexbear.net/

https://lemmy.ml/

https://beehaw.org/

Your mileage may vary.

A full list of who's federated with who doesn't yet exist to my knowledge. However you can use https://defed.xyz/ to check specific instances

[–] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

hexbear itself defed from some instances in the past, instead of hexbear beehaw would be more fitting

Oh, and, hexbear is politically oriented left unity focused Anti-West stance instance

[–] mutual_ayed@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago

Yup. However I'm trying not to add any bias. I did forget about beehaw and I'll edit my post to include that. Thank you for the reminder.

[–] scintilla@lemm.ee 2 points 2 days ago

lemm.ee blocks very few instances if you want true wild west.

[–] TisI@reddthat.com 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

There is actually. You can check it here

[–] mutual_ayed@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

This is an instance by instance list which is great thank you. I guess I was thinking there was a full list as a map I guess.

This requires you to know the name of an instance to check against.

[–] TisI@reddthat.com 1 points 2 days ago

I highly doubt there's something like that like said. But for OP's purpose that link should be good enough to compare some of the instances they're interested in.

[–] TisI@reddthat.com 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)
[–] ryannathans@aussie.zone 2 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Seems to suggest there are only 9 defederated from Aussie.zone out of 1600?

[–] TisI@reddthat.com 1 points 1 day ago

There are also some instances with hidden blocklists. You can check them there as well.

[–] mutual_ayed@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Check ani.social (that's the instance of the first user you couldn't see) to see if they're defed from aussie.zone

That's the problem with that site it's one way.

I'm not entirely sure we're missing out on all that much with a few porn instances missing.

Ah, the mods are puritanical. That explains it.
