Looks like the usage may have gone over Vercel's usage policy (I'm not super familiar with Vercel)? I see the following when trying to bring it up:
402: PAYMENT_REQUIRED
Code: DEPLOYMENT_DISABLED
That's very useful, thank you @Nerd02@lemmy.basedcount.com
Just to note if copying the URL you have to strip off the https:// or else it won't work (maybe people just don't copy that these days, but I ran in to that problem anyway).
Uh yeah that is true. This was a one afternoon project, so I kinda threw the frontend together without thinking too much of it. I guess truncating the protocol instead of relying on the users doing it makes sense.
Also: tested it on mobile. And my probe capitalized the first letter, returning an “instance not found”.
Noted, adding a forced .toLowerCase(). I'm implementing all of the feedback I've received thus far right now.
Awesome!
@infamousbelgian@waste-of.space @Mane25@feddit.uk both changes have been pushed and deployed, thank you for your feedback.
I couldn't find any tools to check this, so I built one myself.
Literally the first link on join-lemmy.org has a table showing all instances and it shows both how many instances that instance is blocking "and* how many other instances are blocking that instance
how many instances that instance is blocking "and* how many other instances are blocking that instance
how's that helpful if you don't know which ones

ok, it seems to be working 😆
even lemmynsfw defederated them, lol 🤣 why?
they are are extremely obnoxious mix of tankies and some other leftists who might have been slightly less obnoxious if they were on their own, but being in the group with said tankies, you don't want them any more than the former
i apologize for grammar structure of my sentence and hope it makes some sense
if you have few days of time to kill you can check this thread where lemm.ee admin is asking lemm.ee users about their opinion on defederating them. they brigade the thread in such a way they make more than 77% of the 2k comments in the thread (not exaggerating - the thread has 1920 comments when viewed from lemm.ee and 425 when viewed from lemmy.world which blocks them) and explain their philosophy in the process. so you will understand stuff like "who absolutely needs to be murdered for the crime of having more money than you in order to make world more just place & other tankies' wisdom".
you have to acknowledge that they did really good job of introducing themselves, though - i had no idea they even existed the day before that thread and i am firm proponent of "defederate. now." today 😆
No better boner killer than people spamming mao's dong.
I normally hate the whole de-federation thing, but the radlib chapocels there are annoying af.
Thank you for this, @Nerd02@lemmy.basedcount.com
Oh I forgot about this community. Thank you for spreading the word.
You are welcome, thank you for your work!
Thanks, bookmarked!
Just linking a similar tool because I haven't seen it being mentioned yet: https://fba.ryona.agency/

It's made by kiwifarms though, they even included their favorite word at the end of the page.

I didn't know, thanks for letting me know. I frankly do not care though, in the exact same way that I do not care that Lemmy is made by tankies.
The interesting bit would be how people with these extreme agencies abuse these tools or their users to further their goals.
As I see it, both cases are questionable people providing useful tools free for me to use. Wether I use these tools or not, has what impact in regards to their agenda? I certainly would not like to be a pawn in their game, or support their cause without consent.
If you think that's what happens, please show me. That would be very interesting to know and might lead to me ceasing usage / recommendation.

Lemmy devs may have controversal political views, but their software is written with a good intention. KiwiFarms on the other hand use it to target instances.

I just see no reason to use a tool made by controversial people with awful intention if there's a good alternative with no such controversies. But you can decide for yourself, I just wanted to inform.

Not just that, in all interactions with them, I've never found the devs to be anything but respectful.

What I'd really like to have is a tool that lists blocked communities. That information is not as public as defederated instances.
6 instances have. Out of 1350ish.
A total of 29 users. Oh my.
aaaand it's down. worked this morning but now it fails with PAYMENT_REQUIRED
Wait why is “dubvee.org” defederated from my instance? Interesting…
Ask them and report back.
They don’t have any contact info, I guess I should PM from another instance.
Its really strange since there is no porn, controversial opinions or else on the instance.
