I have taken the advice from this post and blocked all instances with > 10,000 users, from this list: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vRthB7RtY4Rr0t5fhVKaliJnwSmptMc5oJi7uha_OBcF4wpu4eElxAxNzaCqjlq6NsOE9GpgSnMzZ2x/pubhtml

I will continue to monitor things and will make another announcement if more blocks are necessary.

If anybody is interested in getting a cleaned up instance federated again, feel free to contact me over DM (if you’re currently blocked, you can contact me on Matrix: @smorks:40to.ca).

    I believe .world has, though it still shows up as linked: https://lemmy.ca/instances

    However there is another thread here about .world federation issues. I tested it and .world isn’t syncing here.

    @smorks does the configuration or tool you are using for this reflect in the linked/blocked page or is it blocked on another level when this +10,000 user block kicks in?

    *edit: tested from .ml which has more than 10,000 users and worked. However if it is by “active” user, .ml, behaw below 10,000 where .world is above.
