Possible to see who a piefed instance has defederated? (piefed.social)

A lemmy server's /instance page shows lists of federated and blocked instances, but piefed's version doesn't seem to have this (you see Online | Dormant | Gone forever | Trusted - and I'm not 100% clear on what some of those mean). Is it possible to see a list of servers that my piefed server has defederated/blocked?

I believe that has been asked here before... There is a feature request open for that: https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/issues/949

maybe /domains?

example: https://piefed.social/domains shows a list of domains and banned domains

EDIT: nvm, you meant instances, not domains. oops. it'd would be: /instances like: https://piefed.social/instances

Yeah per my note above is one of those lists in /instances specifically the blocked instances? On lemmy they’re clearly marked in a “blocked” list. On piefed the lists are different.

api stuff... possibly related?

modlog... mostly actions towards posts, accounts, comments, etc.

do you have an example/link of a lemmy blocked list?

[–] artifex@piefed.social 1 points 4 weeks ago

Sure, any lemmy instance will display both federated and blocked instances https://lemmy.zip/instances

Is there a list somewhere on all the locations? It seems that instances, same as tags, don't have an easy link on the main UI

best i could find -- https://codeberg.org/rimu/pyfedi/src/branch/main/app/templates

The API provides this information: https://freamon.github.io/piefed-api/#/Miscellaneous/get_federated_instances

This is now possible to view on the instances page. I redesigned the UI of the filters a bit to try to make it a bit easier to filter by either online state (Online, Dormant, etc.) or by federation status. Let me know if you have any feedback!

oh excellent, thanks! And thanks for reviving a dead thread :)

Now that instances page needs a link on the homepage 😄
