That's actually not true. Lemmy.world and lemmy.dbzer0.com are fully federated, you can see for yourself if you check the instances tab.

The only thing that people incessantly complain about is that lemmy.world blocked one single community from dbzer0, the piracy community. For an account on lemmy.dbzer0, that has absolutely no effect. For an account on lemmy.world, that just means they need an alt if they want to participate in that one community. The two userbases can still fully interact all over lemmy, it's just that lemmy.world decided to block the piracy community to cover their asses legally.

Look, here's https://lemmy.world/c/adhd@lemmy.dbzer0.com

But people make such a big deal about that one blocked community that a lot of people get the idea that they are defederated or something. You're not the first person I've had to correct about this, not even the first this week lol.
