There have been multiple accounts created with the sole purpose of posting advertisement posts or replies containing unsolicited advertising.

Accounts which solely post advertisements, or persistently post them may be terminated.

Are some instances/communities closed off from others?

Still trying to get my bearings here.

My account is through Lemmy.World and when I visit the Movies and TV community through lemmy.world/c/[email protected], I only see a few posts. But when I visit lemmy.film/c/moviesandtv, there’s a lot more activity.

Did I mess something up in my settings or is this normal? Do I need to have multiple accounts for other instances?

Thanks, y’all.

lemmy.world has been defederated at least by beehaw.org. If you want to participate there you will indeed have to make an account in another instance. IDK about other instances though. Also sometimes posts don’t propagate to other instances since population here just exploded. Lemmy’s software stack is being developed to handle the higher demand better.

Hedup ,

It would be cool to have some sort of federation map, that shows which communities have federated and which have not. Maybe it already exists?

EDIT: After a quick google I found this article

…blogspot.com/…/the-map-of-fediverse.html

that mentions

fediverse.space

which should show which instances are federated. But at the moment it doesn’t seem to work for me. Just loads infinitely until “something went wrong” pops up.

@Hedup Try https://lemmy.world/instances

e: Also by region or whatever you want https://joinfediverse.wiki/Instances

Hedup ,

Ah, thanks. Looks like beehaw.org is still federated with lemmy.world, but just in one direction since at beehaw.org/instances lemmy.world is in the blocked list.

@Hedup Yep. They defederated yesterday. https://beehaw.org/post/567170

Then they aren’t federated and likely won’t see posts, right? If instance A defederates from Instance B, no matter what instance B does, they don’t talk.

@MadCybertist @SonNeedGym @hydra @Hedup Yep. They might seem like there talking but you will be talking to yourself. They have to federate to be able to talk and see all there comments and post. you might see some stuff now cause its cached but once they reboot or whatever you won't see anything
