Could be because nobody on your instance is following any omicron.blog users. As I understand federation, there needs to be an existing connection for your instance to look up the other site in searches?

I could be wrong, but new/small instances are often omitted in searches.

I mean, the threat was, but the fediverse reacted and most instances (that I know of) just defederated preemptively.

This blog post seems to point and laugh that “see, we hadn’t needed to put out that fire, it’s fully extinguished now”. Well, yes. Because we put it out.

But there is also the point that Meta users and Fedizens didn’t really have any interest in federating with each other. In that respect, the outcome was fully foreseeable, and Meta’s attempt pure signal value for the corporation.

LOL, startrek.website? IIRC the whole hubbub about them was that they defederated from dbzer0 in the first place.

Thanks, I hate it 😂
