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?

Beehaw is the best run instance on the fediverse no question. I generally like blahaj as well but it can get a bit rowdy lol

I took a moment to scroll Beehaw a bit after bringing it up. It's largely how I remember it, but the place feels much more tense than before, but I can't really fault them for that with the massive uptick in hate around much of the world.

If one wants a place like Beehaw, I agree there probably isn't a much better one out there.

Yeah they feel rightfully under threat as a leader in the concept of “safe spaces” for queer and other underrepresented (and let’s be real: currently maligned) groups.

Running 0.18.3 is probably not the sweetest experience nowadays

So much talk of Beehaw but still no sign of a link!

PS: or Blahaj, assuming it's not the same thing

blahaj is an instance that federates with lemmy.world. So you have access to the content on there.

Check out [email protected] for example.

BeeHaw does not federate with lemmy.word due to moderation issues. If you want to access beehaw, I recommend making an alt account of a server like https://discuss.online/ or https://sopuli.xyz/

Thank you, I added links to my post as well. It totally slipped my mind.

Great! Thanks for the clarification.
