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.

Did this stop working?

You should probably cache results so users aren’tspamming other instances

Since I was using this to write a little defederation thing on which instances find hexbear so repulsive they had to defederate I noticed the number from exploding-heads go up quite a bit from the 75 to 170 now. I will make it a point to call out two specific instances for being hilariously disgusting feddit.de aka the german federation, and feddit.dk both defederated hexbear but didn't defed the outright nazi instance exploding-heads earlier today, class act from the german and danish mod team.

Also apparently they were aware of it two months ago but didn't chose to act until today which yeah class act from the german admins. https://feddit.de/post/1151473?scrollToComments=true

There's a cheap dark joke in there somewhere about Germans and Nazis

I live in Germany and can guarantee it's not a joke. Antifa is very much needed here.

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.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Cool, it seems defederation works as intended!

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, not really surprising. Radical left is usually shunned much more readily than the far right.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Really says a lot about the liberals around us.

I wonder what happens when you scratch them
