Noob question, but are any major Lemmy instances blocked by lemmy.ml? I checked the blocklist at https://lemmy.ml/instances, but I can't easily tell how big those instances are, or what they're blocked for. I'm guessing we don't federate with NSFW servers and spammers but are there any large communities I'm not seeing?

That’s basically it. We defederate from porn instances, instances overrun by spammers, and fascist instances like the late explodingheads.com and its successor hilariouschaos.com. The only large Lemmy instance we’re defederated from is lemmynsfw.com.

A helpful investigatory tool is https://defed.xyz/.
