Is mastodon.social defederated by a notable amount of other instances? (lemmy.world)

I'm currently on mastodon.social for my instance, and I was informed the other day that because of poor moderation it's been permanently defedereated by enough instances to make it an issue for users there to have reach outside of their home instance. Is this true? Should I move to a different mastodon instance? Thank you!

What's the reason for defederating from them? Aren't they like the original Masto instance? What kind of moderation issues are going on there?

They're slow to respond to moderation issues. Which is fine when you're talking about 1 errant user on a small instance, but it's not so great when you're talking about a small but ever present percentage of problem users on a mega instance

I'm curious to understand their reasons, too.
