Any of these having similar moderation and federation policy as lemm.ee?

I'd say it doesn't count unless it also moves all followers, which this doesn't.

It provides an easy way to transfer your subscriptions to a new account, but that's not exactly the same. For example, your posting history will be lost.

The issue is that currently we don't have the technical features needed for such an attitude: namely, transfering the communities. Decentralised IDs would also help.

A server can decide what servers it's connected to. It can have a blacklist of blocked instances - or even go further and have a whitelist of allowed instances, blocking all else.

Such a feature is necessary to deal with like spam instances, or instances that host illegal content.

One of the things I like a lot about lemme.ee is that they have very few instances.

Unfortunately they have large blocklist: https://piefed.social/post/816776#comment_6416768

I've moved to https://piefed.social/ - I really like the ability there to subscibe to whole topics rather than individual communities. But I'll miss lemm.ee's defederation policy.

I guess it's time to migrate to piefed. I really love some of the things they're doing - but I'll miss lemm.ee, I feel most other instances either defederate way too much, or way too little (as in, not at all)...

Sure, it's always a step of 10x, but you do have to remember all the prefixes. Or you can only remember the 1000x prefixes - but you also need to remember centi-. Then, nobody says "megagram" - it's "ton". So there are quirks to remember.

Well, you can theoretically make a second app-view "instance", call it "Greenearth" or something, and have different policies than Bluesky on how to verify or select content. But until someone actually does so, it's not really decentralized. I'm not sure what's stopping people from doing so, but it's been a while, so I assume there must be some roadblock.

There's also the issue of how Blueky itself was depicted as the decentralized network - when it's more akin to a single instance, instead.
