The sequel is way funnier than this post, the people over at hackernews really take themselves too seriously lmao.

Suspicious account with only one post is commenting a hyperlink

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

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

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

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] ryannathans@aussie.zone 4 points 2 months 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 months ago* (last edited 2 months 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

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

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

[–] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 2 points 2 months 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 months 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.

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

There is actually. You can check it here

[–] mutual_ayed@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months 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 months 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 months ago (1 children)
[–] ryannathans@aussie.zone 2 points 2 months ago (2 children)

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

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

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

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

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

....... obviously porn....you're missing the porn

[–] BearGun@ttrpg.network 1 points 2 months ago

Ah, the mods are puritanical. That explains it.

Coming up, in 2030: Anti bot verification by vtuber posting.

Now this will require a vtuber account.

Or how about the new captcha trend: Craft a simple barn in Arbonautica™ (game download available in Steam). You have 5 minutes.

Can't just leave us hanging with that ending!
