Why the fuck does Aussie zone block so many instances? You guys okay out there?

[–] ryannathans@aussie.zone 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

No wonder I am not seeing shit, how do I see what's blocked?

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Move to another instance?

[–] ryannathans@aussie.zone 4 points 3 months ago (2 children)

Any sites that give me a list of what an instance has blocked or not blocked? To pick an instance

[–] TisI@reddthat.com 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yes

Seems to suggest there are only 9 defederated from Aussie.zone out of 1600?

[–] TisI@reddthat.com 1 points 3 months ago

There are also some instances with hidden blocklists. You can check them there as well.

I'm not entirely sure we're missing out on all that much with a few porn instances missing.

Ah, the mods are puritanical. That explains it.

Coming up, in 2030: Anti bot verification by vtuber posting.

Now this will require a vtuber account.

Or how about the new captcha trend: Craft a simple barn in Arbonautica™ (game download available in Steam). You have 5 minutes.

Can't just leave us hanging with that ending!
