Have I been defederated?

I just looked on the instance list and my instance is no longer listed. Does this mean I have been blocked? I just upgraded to 0.18.4. Thanks in advance.

  • I see you on the lemmy.world instance list. I'm not quite sure how one would be taken off the instances list, but if you're not explicitly in the "blocked instances" section then you're not defederated.

    • Thank you for checking for me! I appreciate you.

      • I love kind people like yourselfs (you and precious poster) . Can we clone you and replace the billionaries with 1000 of each of you?

    • Instances can also whitelist and limit who is federated that way, but it seems to be rare.

  • lemmy.world went down briefly earlier and has been going up and down due to DDOS attacks. It might be worth double checking in your instance logs to see if you aren't being seen as a dead instance, but it's likely the earlier outage.
