This website is specifically for that: https://fba.ryona.agency
lemm.ee is federated with everyone :D
Edit: just noticed my links only showed which instances the subject has blocked. The main page allows you to do it both ways:

Congratulations, you have found a tool made by Kiwi Farms - here is a Wikipedia article on the website
Thank you for pointing that out, I didn't even notice the kiwi farms git link at the bottom of the site.
The links you posted are the inverse of what I was looking, although they do support the inverse here. Regardless that is a very nice website! I find it interesting that it shows different instances blocking sh.itjust.works than what I found on Lemmy map.
edit: I cannot write well today, I do apologize
No worries hah I realised and edited mine also.
Yeah, the different instances is strange. It shows nothing for news.cosocial.ca, which has me wondering if it's aware of lemm.ee - maybe it isn't, and that's why I can't see it defederated from anything. Perhaps it's just something to do with how often the feds are updated, news.cosocial.ca seems pretty small and could be new.
I warn you, that the existence of this tool made some Mastodon instances hide their block lists (or simply display the lists on e.g. static site)
I think it's remarkably silly to hide. like why not be open about who you block/don't block? unless you're ashamed of your actions?
It should be noted that cosocial has 10 registered users according to their front-page. Small instances frequently make idiosyncratic federation decisions and exactly because they're small they have little impact on the overall health of the network.
Beehaw's defederation as a "load-bearing" instance in the lemmyverse that is already entangled via cross-instance subscriptions is much more damaging and degrades service for like an aggregate 50% of the lemmyverse.
I wouldn't sweat this cosocial thing, it will probably never impact you in a perceivable way.

I am not worried about it! I was more so curious if a larger instance had blocked us, since then it has some utility to know when commenting in communities on other instances. E.g. if someone from beehaw comments on !privacyguides@lemmy.one I know not to reply to them considering they won't see my comment (unless my understanding of federation is incorrect)
But someone else might see it.
news.cosocial (remember, that they have a Mastodon instance too) works on allow list anyways
Though it really only works on desktop. Click the "blocked" checkbox
Thank you! I have edited my post to reflect this
While I personally don't care to use them myself, they generally don't ruin my reading experience unless its obvious spam. However, I have heard that they are the enemy of people who rely on screen readers. Screen readers will say something like "Tongue sticking out emoji". So depending on where they are placed in text it can probably be really difficult to read things.
Did your comment end up on the wrong post? Websockets seem to be falling apart this week and leading to all kinds of weird bugs.
Yep totally wrong post lol. Sorry for the missing context, I was trying to reply to a thread about the use of emojis.
No worries, I think there's a legit bug in Lemmy doing this right now even if you make no mistakes.
Oh! That was my post. Actually I didn't know about the screen reader thing, that's actually a legit reason to use alternatives
lol I'm glad my post made its way around to you then.
Is there any way to tell per instance?
Why did Beehaw defederate it? I’m out of the loop…
Here is the post on Beehaw announcing the defederation from sh.itjust.works and lemmy.world
Tldr; there is a lack of moderating tools for this platform and given the community that Beehaw wants to create they cannot federate with large open-regestration instances. A few bad actors on these two instances were causing too much moderation hassle so they decided to defederate. They also wish for more granular federation controls akin to Mastodon, to avoid the nuclear option of defederation. At the time they also only had 4 moderators for the entire instance (people can't create their own communities)
Since then they have gotten more mods, and TheDude (our instance admin) has reached out to beehaw and they are currently collaborating which will likely lead to refederation (more can be found in this post on Beehaw)
Edit: I had some issues making this reply, so if you see this pop up more than once i sincerely apologize.
