Hi!
There is (used to be) this community for Japanese music on feddit.de:
https://feddit.de/c/japanesemusic
But now it seems like other instances basically only have local copies of this community and federation is broken:
https://lemmy.ml/c/[email protected]/data_type/Post/sort/New/page/1
https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]/data_type/Post/sort/New/page/1
Beehaw still seems to be able to push new posts, but they didn’t get the one post from 2 days ago that was from sh.itjust.works, so it’s not really working there either:
https://beehaw.org/c/[email protected]/data_type/Post/sort/New/page/1
On feddit.de itself, the community also isn’t available anymore under its above address, but it still exists with @feddit.de added:
https://feddit.de/c/[email protected]
I’m not sure what’s going on here, I couldn’t find anything in the modlog and I can’t tell if it was just deleted? But if it was deleted, other instances seem to be completely unaware of this and people are still trying to use it on their instances.
I tried to post to the feddit.de main community too, but my post isn’t appearing there either. Of course that might be moderation so I’m not sure it means anything.
I believe there’s a bug when a moderator from a remote instance edits a community, that stops it showing up in search and makes it only accessible via a link like https://feddit.de/c/[email protected]. So that’s probably what happened to this one. More info.
As for the other stuff, Beehaw is defederated from sh.itjust.works so makes sense they’re not receiving updates posted from there.
Oh, that could be it! The user who created it added themselves on two other instances as mods too. I can’t find anything in the modlog though.
Yeah, this is it. I had this happen to the community I moderate today. The fix can only be applied by admins.
Good to know there is a fix, at least! Glad you got yours sorted out.
