You mean like if there's a community called [!cats@example.com](/c/cats@example.com) and your home instance no longer federates with the instance example.com?
If so, I'll add that to Tesseract as it sounds useful.

Bonfire just instituted a "Federated" flag in their alpha. I think this could be useful.
This is already in nightly, you can see it on the test instance here https://voyager.lemmy.ml/c/photography@lemmy.ml

The best tool I know of is the Federation Checker, but something like it should definitely should be built into clients.
Notably, Beehaw is defederated from .world and sh.itjust.works, while dbzer0, quokk.au, and anarchist.nexus are defederated from feddit.org.

I feel like there should be an "are you alive" federation activity in activitypub, as well as an "I'm back" activity.
Servers go up and down enough that maybe it should be part of the spec
replies:
PieFed does this.
