Is there a way of checking whether a specific instance is blocking the instance I am on? I have a strong suspicion one person I was trying to communicate with does not see my toots, but I don't know of a way of checking this.
@khird
The specific one did not have anything about blocks there. I think I'll have to mail the admins and ask, maybe I'm just wrong.
@timorl If it’s an open instance you could also make an account there and try following someone here.
@pganssle
It's not, but it would have been a good thing to try if it was.
@timorl I'm a bit late but you can do this by opening up the thread in their instance (click on the date by one of the posts (preferably the highest one) from said instance). Yw.
@timorl Instances that block us often brag about it. If it's a Mastodon instance, check their /about/more page near the bottom. If Pleroma, it's sometimes on the /about page.
