I’m still quite lost when it comes to the fediverse. I created an account on the main instance, however as I understood more how it works, it seems like certain instances that interest me are “defederated” from this instance, and vice versa. So now I want to move my account to be able to see those instances, however I want to keep my follows and my posts I have on this instance. Is that possible? I read that fediverse is resistant to censorship in this regard, so there must be something I’m missing here.
I think it was lemmy.dbzer0 (?) something along those lines. However when I use the tool to see defederated instances this one doesn’t show up, however I can’t find it when I search for it either.
You can see lemmy.dbzer0 from Lemmy.world I believe.
All I get when I search that instance is Mullvad VPN. Can an admins also block specific communities within an allowed instance?
They can block specific communities.
Previously there was this whole thing over lemmy world admins banning their piracy community so I would not be surprised if they were blocking certain dbzero communities as well out of their extremely cautious and risk averse nature.
They can, yes, but I am not sure if that’s your issue.
Either way, joining dbzer0 should fix your problem.
