So when an instance is blocked, it means users on the blocked instance will no longer be able to see that instance’s content. For example, beehaw.org has now blocked lemmy.world. However with the way federation works, the content from beehaw is cached on lemmy.world servers. So you can only see what has already been cached; there will be no updated content on any existing cache.
Edit: here’s a recent post from kbin.social going into further detail on how federation works.
Probably something behind the scenes, at least judging from how a lot of instance blocks happen on Mastodon.
I’ve been here for years already, but I’m still going to be checking Reddit. There are subs there that either don’t exist here (r/TaylorSwift - yes, really) or have a close-knit community that I can’t see moving to lemmy anytime soon (r/greyhounds), or exist but are really just something like placeholders but where I get tons of aggregated news where an RSS would be ridiculous to curate (r/soccer and r/liverpoolfc).
Pretty much this.
Mastodon had similar issues for a long while, but as it’s more mature than lemmy, export features now exist. Posts from a dead instance will exist on federated instances, but I think the biggest issue would be losing on what communities you subscribe to.
This is the clearest description on the fundamental core of anarchism; Huey put it perfectly. It just shows that anarchists have more in common foundationally with libertarians than actual socialists. Anarchists are individualists, and as such, see any fight towards the collective liberation of society at odds with their line of thinking. It’s also why anarchism is predominantly seen as a Western phenomena; individualism is central to capitalism, and especially the US (i.e. “rugged individualists”), so in ther mind they attempt to consolidate the two forms of thinking: they want to keep the benefits of being the privileged of the world in the center of imperialism and keep in line with its alienated and individualist nature, but twist what liberation would mean for the working class into an edgy ideology of “no gods, no masters”.
Anarchism or Socialism really hones in on that point as well.
