I just noticed my private instance, https://derp.foo/, was recently defederated by Beehaw. Thing is, I have no idea why. Was my instance accidentally included in some bulk defederation to get rid of spammers, or is there something specific to my instance?

It doesn't look like your instance is defederated from beehaw

Hey there, can you reach out to me on matrix? @penguincoder:hive.beehaw.org

If they defederated your instance pretty sure this post won't reach them. Try making a post from another instance

I'm posting from https://lemm.ee/, I simply set my display name to '[email protected]'.

Huh, it's impossible to tell from jerboa

Tap the username to see "[email protected]@lemm.ee".

That tripped me out on jerboa too. I just clicked on their username, and then I could see that it's a lemm.ee account

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That doesn't work if you're from lemm.ee as well

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

True, I didn't think of that

Not blocked for me. https://beehaw.org/c/[email protected] works just fine. And it wouldn't if it were defederated.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 years ago

Indeed it does. However, comparing it to https://derp.foo/c/hackernews and sorting by new reveals that posts more recent than 5 days ago were never sync'ed. In addition, https://beehaw.org/instances shows derp.foo as blocked.

perhaps they started whitelisting?
