Looking at the (short!) list of defederated instances, I tried looking through this magazine to read about what caused some of the defederation actions -- unfortunately it looks like some of that information might've been lost in the mbin migration and subsequent cleanup?...

We take this opportunity to look back on its history and future. 🦆 VS 😈: Let's take back some ground from the tech giants! Thanks to your donations to our not-for-profit, Framasoft is taking...
Today, I continue with code refactoring, getting closer to finishing the most tedious part. I've also improved tools to prevent spam on the instance, which will take effect in a few days, addressing the issue of overloading other instances that have been reported. After today's wave of spam, I've also started working on...

I was happily working on a different set of servers when apparently the database server for fedia.io became unresponsive. Once I realized it, I forced a reboot and everything is back to normal.
