idk it's my first time (kind of) trying to do dataviz, I thought the original post was super interesting but like other comments said, it was hard to read.

I think in a way it's mostly because defederation is complex to show as links, since it is the break of said link, but hopefully this type of graph is better ?

you do lose the "group" of instances view, though (and also I did not bother with per instance MAU as raw number + percentage, or sofware used)

let me know what you think!

I find it mildly interesting that there's no inverse of lemmygrad, that defederates from everybody else

Not according to this graph

Defederation is often seen as a last resort and generally seen pretty negatively. Defederating everyone would also get rid of most content

Yeah but this graph would have so much more data >:)

Some instances use allowlist meaning other servers are defederated unless added to the list. Hexbear is the only major instance that uses this model, to my knowledge.
