Is it possible that Yiffit will stop being defederated with Lemmy.ml in the future? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I have been an active user of different Lemmy.ml communities for a long time but for personal reasons I want to migrate from Dbzer0 to Yiffit, unfortunately to my surprise Lemmy.ml stopped federating with Yiffit a few months ago and honestly it saddens me because there are communities like c/linux, c/privacy, c/firefox, c/fdroid that are extremely useful and I love to participate in them.

Is there any chance that Yiffit will be federated again? And why was it defederated from Lemmy.ml?

The admin of Yiffit is an incredibly nice person and I'm sure he will want to come to collaborate to be able to federate again with Lemmy.ml. As a user I find it a little unfair not to be able to participate in these communities from this instance but I understand and respect that each instance has its own policies and decisions.

Thanks for the information, and I will take it into account.

For what it's worth, I saw your posts on Yiffit when you found all this out after the fact. It's a little inconvenient on desktop, but on mobile it's actually very intuitive to have separate accounts to specifically browse an instance by local. You can usually even have the same display name if that's important to you as well.

In the future though you always do need to keep instance politics, culture, and rules in mind when choosing a daily driver account because it is important.
