I know about these 2 also just learned they defederated (and what that means).
Any more tips?

[–] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 month ago

.world defederated from them, meaning .world accounts cannot see their content. They still have very active posting, just not in your view.

I know it's tough, but consider making another account on an instance that is defederated with as few instances as possible. Then you can pick and choose which instance you yourself don't want to see anymore.

You can block instances, communities, and users in your settings menu.

Any recommendations for such an instance? Or recommendations on where to find such information?

You're already on one, though if you want even broader lemm.ee works. I, however, instead recommend checking out instances and their local feeds directly by picking from here, sorted by most active, then scrolling by local.

It was .world that defederated from hexbear & lemmygrad and not the other way around, but the effect is the same.
