I mod a community here, and for the last three days posts made to that community have not been showing up outside of this instance. Specifically, I have an account on Lemmy World, and I can’t see any recent posts from the community I mod on that account.

Also, I follow several communities from other instances including lemmy.world and lemmy.ml and none of the content for those communities have updated here in the last three days, though when I check them from accounts I have with other instances, they all show up fine.

I have checked all of this on my mobile browser, my desktop browser, and Jerboa.

Does anyone know what’s going on? Does this have anything to do with the steps @[email protected] has been taking to combat bots? This is really problematic, it’s like we’ve been shadow defederated.

Edit: Seriously, why would someone downvote this post?

Edit 2: I’m not sure if this is related or not, but for the first time, I’m not able to respond to a Kbin users comment. That happened in this post.

    We aren’t defederated from either, and I have no trouble seeing content from either of those instances.

    The two instances were having trouble this week due to an influx of users and activity, plus being on an older version of Lemmy. But in the past couple of days that should have been resolved

      Unfortunately, it doesn’t appear to be resolved. Hoping that it will be, though. I enjoy the community and would like to keep my itjustworks account.
