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

Well that sucks, is it possible to transfer our account to another instance then?
My understanding is that we cannot. I've seen people talking about it maybe becoming a thing in the future, but right now the only option is to just go register your name on another instance. Alternatively, I guess you can host your own instance with just you (or a few friends I guess) and then you control what gets federated, but for me that seems like a little too much work right now. I may consider that in the future if I had more free time.
Not yet, but is planned: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/1985
https://github.com/bunburya/lemmy2opml
https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim
https://github.com/wescode/lemmy_migrate
some tools you can use to transfer your subscriptions and such.
