List of Federated Instances (feddit.it)

Hi everyone, I have some technical questions regarding federation. Answers backed by documentation would be perfect.

  1. Is there a way to get the list of federated instances of a specific instance?
  2. (Regarding question 1, should this consider active followers between instances? If not actively defederated/blocked, when one account follows another from another instance, the two instances get federated, right?)
  3. Can I get a list of actively blocked/defederated/muted instances?
  4. How does this change between applications? Are for example Lemmy and Mastodon the same?

My goal is to possibly create a graph/network analysis.

Thank you for your help.

The simple answer would be just to click "instances" at the bottom of any lemmy page to view the list of other instances the one you're on is federated with. Most instances have both a linked list and blocked list on that page.

This is good, thank you! How about Pixelfed, Pleroma, Misskey, kbin?

Would be better to ask users on those sites directly, since we're only familiar with Lemmy here lol
