Lemmy.world has hexbear blocked. This is why I have a lemmy.today account. It’s general purpose and they make it a point to not block other instances, which is helpful for when I want access to all the communities.

I thought Lemmy.today was one person with fifty accounts.
Why not go to local irl groups? I can't imagine a few strangers spread out across the globe can help much

Mutual aid is most effective with people you spend time with.
Global mutual aid just becomes a series of begging gofundmes
No. Just create an account on hexbear.
I don't think you can even see the communities to post in them with a Lemmy.World account due to the defederation. But then again, some apps let you manually enter the community you're posting to directly from the post button and I don't know if that would work. IIRC, Hexbear also defederated from Lemmy.World so that might not work either.
Once a community is de-federated from your instance you may be able to post to it, but it's the mirror of that community on your current instance not the real community. So nothing you post will go to that outside instance and nothing posted there comes in.
On Mbin, I believe this is something that is being looked at (so we would know), maybe lemmy.world also?
I think that community is only meme responses I can’t remember the last time I saw them give any money or anything useful.
Thank you SatansMaggotyCumFart, I'll see if there's a mutual aid community in my city.
There is an active mutual aid community on hexbear and at comradeship@lemmygrad.ml. They do good work.
Join mander.xyz, To all their own, but I think it's really stupid to defederate with any community, and Mander does not defederate.
