Why YSK: Choosing an instance with defederation policies you’re most comfortable with is important to make your Fediverse experience smooth in the long run.
Here is a chart showing the defederation count of each instance.
| Instance | Defederated with how many other instances |
|---|---|
| beehaw.org | 405 |
| feddit.de | 101 |
| lemmy.world | 63 |
| lemmy.ml | 44 |
| sh.itjust.works | 4 |
| exploding-heads.com | 3 |
You can get it by going to the instance’s instance list and scrolling/Ctrl+Fing down to “Blocked Instances”. To find the instance list, go to https://your-instance.url/instances, for example, https://lemmy.world/instances
Couldn’t this be accomplished by deploying your own personal instance? Or am I missing something.
You’re right, however it might not be that simple especially when considering costs.
Pretty cheap if your personal server is just for you… And even if you want to add a few friends & family. I plan on starting my own instance next month.
In my country those prices I looked up were far from cheap 🙃 but soon I hope I do get the money to have my own server
