I couldn’t find any tools to check this, so I built one myself.
This is a little site I built: the Defederation Investigator defed.xyz. With it, you can get a comprehensive view of which instances have blocked yours, as well as which ones you are federated with.
The tool is open source and available on GitHub. Hopefully someone will find it useful, enjoy.
You should probably cache results so users aren’tspamming other instances
Man… beehaw fucking sucks
Why?
Its an echochamber that defederated whit most instances, and they very good at gatekeeping since if you try to sign up in there they ask you for an esay to sign up like if they where hot shit and theres a 30% chance they acctually let you in, and the moderation in there is pretty ban heavy and the admins are pretty much reddit mods that love to keep their echochambers closed. So thats why.
Yes they want to be a safe space for their users, if some people want to talk on the internet without being harassed I’m happy for them
Never seen exploding-heads before, so I went to their page … turns out they’re leaving lemmy and the fediverse for nostr: https://exploding-heads.com/post/765290
Main reason being all the “censorship” (ie defederation) they’ve received.
Didn’t wanna be friends with those le redditors anyways
