based on the list of instances made by @sunaurus@lemm.ee here - Thank you again for that work, it’s highly appreciated.
This is a preventive measure against massive amounts of accounts being created for botting purposes. Most instances banned appear to be 1 user instances so we don’t think this will have a great effect on anyone’s usage of Beehaw. If you are an admin of one of those instances, feel free to contact us at support@beehaw.org
I’m not sure sopuli.xyz accepts new applications at the moment, but I can see and interact with most instances when logged in there, including beehaw and Lemmy.world. No affiliation, so do your own research first. They have a similar application process as beehaw so it should be relatively safe from bots and defederation. No NSFW/extremist content I’ve seen at least. It is quite small, though.
