I learned just recently that dbzer0 has a great piracy community that is blocked by lemmy.world . I’m not saying I’m looking to switch instances or anything, but it did get me wondering what else might be blocked by my instance that I wasn’t previously aware of.

While we’re at it, I’m curious what communities might notably be blocked on other instances as well. So we might as well just make this a question about what might be blocked by any particular instance, not just my instance.

So, what’s blocked on some instances that folks might not have realized is blocked?

    Make accounts on 2-3 instances. It’s worth it.

      Yeah for example I started on lemmy.world and then there was some defederation drama. So I made an account on lemmy.today because they don’t block any instances. Just to give me the entirety of the fediverse. Plus it’s good to have a backup in case a server goes down.

        I think a lot of people start on Lemmy.world and lemmy.ml but then overtime switch to other instances they made alts on. I think it’s a cool way that things work and centralisation gets avoided.
