For example, an instance may have blocked lemmy.world, but I can still see their communities in the search from lemmy.world. I’m not sure how to tell if they are blocked or not.
You must log in or register to comment.
One way is to go to [instance url]/instances to get a list of federated instances, and see if it appears there. For example, to see who lemmy.world federates with, go to https://lemmy.world/instances
On the web UI, there’s a link at the bottom for this:
Instances
A list of who an instance federates with or is blocking is at https://an.instance.youre.wondering.about/instances (replace with the proper site name)
For me, that link returns “Server Not Found”.
