        I think that part is still up to the instance to announce. In the case here at lemmy.ca the admin has made a call to block those on a list another admin has made of problematic instances (seem to be primarily instances that have seen a recent, unexplained spike). Note this is not the issue with Lemmy.world which is not blocked, the issue with them just seems to be either overloaded or general issues with Lemmy or .world right now.

        Difference in signup policy creating moderation overhead the reason for the high profile case:

      Oh sweet. That is way easier than what I just did. Updated my comment on not knowing.

      Yup, that’s the issue. Thanks!

      Err. Actually didn’t read column headers. It says linked, so maybe a version issue / some other bug.

      Definitely not working from .world as I posted from an account there on this thread and it hasn’t shown up. I haven’t experienced this with any other instance yet, just .world
