Could be politics. A lot of people are appearently upset about the owners political views, which I think is very silly myself.
Also it seems that Reddit users are brigading against the Lemmy network due to the opinions of the instance owner on lemmy.ml.
Its just so stupid, all of this. Why are people like this? Why do we demand everyone to think the same way and have similar opinions, or we feel like we need to go fight them? We dont have enough things to fight about in the real world?
That’s sad indeed.
It’s most probably the immense load, I too had troubles finding a few communities on feddit.de that I knew existed on lemmy.ml, I had to try several times for them to show up.
I’m subscribed to them now but sometimes it’s hard to see new posts or to comment.
It’s a difficult situation, we’re hugging all lemmy servers to death lol, we have to be patient and wait until things go back to normal, hopefully :D
Huh you’re right. First thought was maybe ml is down, but it doesn’t seem to be. How odd!
Not quite sure, I’m only new here. The lemmy.ml list of federated instances does have feddit.de listed. And the feddit.de list of federated instances shows lemmy.ml also.
Not sure - could be because it’s the ‘official’ one and not a community server.
That’s not really intuitive coming from something that wants to reference everything. Thanks!
On 2nd look - I see lemmy.ml comms, could have been a ‘hickup’
Oh, what I meant is that when I go on browse.feddit.de, which says indexes all instances, lemmy.ml doesn’t appear. I still can find them from my instance. :)
I noticed that lemmy.world doesn’t have the equivalent browse.lemmy.world page. Maybe that’s something that the owner of feddit.de put in themselves?
afaik it is a service they host but is independent for their lemmy instance. It is supposed to find all communities on all instances, even ones that are blocked on feddit.de (like lemmygrad)
My bet would be on technical issues with indexing or indexing speed maybe? I do get results from lemmy.ml on browse.feddit.de .
Indeed, I checked for asklemmy when I posted and it wasn’t there, now it’s back up
