I’ve noticed today that world@lemmy.world hasn’t had any new posts or comments for about a day now.
However when I go to https://lemmy.world/c/world in the browser there’s way more activity.
The post when on feddit.uk https://feddit.uk/post/2700378
Same post when on Lemmy.world https://lemmy.world/post/5717372?scrollToComments=true
You’re right… The fuck? I don’t see anything on the announcements community about it?
Edit: I think world has blocked instances in the past where the admins are non-responsive, it happened with feddit.nl not too long ago, so this could be the reason why.
I’ll look into this in a bit.
How do you reach out to them? Just drop them a private message?
I’m on L.W’s Discord and Matrix channels.
Yeah, their list is quite long. So long that I almost missed seeing yours on there.
Oh really, for no apparent reason?
I’m 100% on board with instances blocking who they like, but I really think it should be more transparent than that. If we’re blocked, we should at least get a message that we’re blocked when trying to post…
Yes, there was no notice on L.W at all, I assumed everyone had just given up on UK Lemmy until I thought to look here directly.
Yeah it needs to be way more obvious. At least have something in the modlog with a note against why an instance was blocked.
L.W promised greater transparency and this isn’t it, unless I missed an announcement. 🤷🏻
They recently banned a community on their server that I follow without an announcement too. Honestly seems like that server is going to shit.
I think they just need to be more careful - they’re the big dog in the park (larger than the other instances combined) and any action can have major consequences for everyone else.
