thanks for this post. right now is an interesting time, which i think could be regarded as the first great migration from reddit to lemmy and the wider fediverse.

when you’re on the lemm.ee instance, scroll to the very bottom of the page and click on the “instances” link. that page shows “linked” instances on the left column and “blocked” instances on the right column. “linked” are the instances we’re federated with(grows naturally), and “blocked” are the instances that sunaurus elected to defederate with. you can go to any instance and look at their lists too, even without an account, so they are very publicly visible.

is that what you’re looking for?

side-note: before today our blocked instances list was empty every time i checked, which i do fairly often.
