I found one post from 12 hours ago that describes the problem: https://lemmy.ml/post/2650814 - but that’s all I’ve seen. Content is way down on lemmy.ml with nothing coming in from .world
EDIT: seems that lemmy.ml is getting some content delivered to .world, but .world communities seem islands on .ml that only have local new posts/comments.
I’ll check the new way Lemmy detects dead servers, it’s possible an outage caused lemmy.ml to think we’re dead (we’re not!) :-)
think we’re dead (we’re not!)
Speak for yourself.
Ohh sorry to hear that. RIP
He got better
Is there anyway you could also check fanaticus.social I am a mod on the Braves community there but I havent seen any new posts in days. If I go to the community via their instance, I show new posts.
Example: Via Lemmy.World the newest post is 4 days old: https://lemmy.world/c/braves@fanaticus.social?dataType=Post&page=1&sort=New Via Fanaticus.Social the newest post is 17 hours old: https://fanaticus.social/c/braves?dataType=Post&page=1&sort=NewI did notice they are on 0.18.2 where we are on 0.18.3. Is it as simple as that server needing to update?
+1 to this. I’ve noticed that posts haven’t been federating in !tampabaylightning@fanaticus.social either for the past several days.
I wanted to piggy back off of your comment. Have you learned anything about what’s going on? I’m a mod over at https://lemmy.world/c/miamihurricanes@fanaticus.social and it seems posts haven’t federated for the better part of 2 weeks now.
I’ve had no luck yet. My hope was it would be fixed in the next version of lemmy that was created a day or two ago. But that doesn’t seem to have fixed things.
I’m considering just creating a 2nd account there until the issue is fixed.Looks like they are getting addressed over there!
Nice find! Glad it’s being worked out.
Posted about this in Lemmy world support and on lemmy.ml support with screenshots

Is this a better spot to post issues like this?
I’m on Lemmy.world and still seeing new posts from Lemmy.ml
example?
EDIT: Ok, I see a lemmy.ml created a post: https://lemmy.world/post/2463337
So far, I can’t find any new content on lemmy.ml from .world
Slightly tangential, but why is “one of the two major Lemmy instances” using a TLD under the authority of the government of frigging MALI, a semi-failed state that has nothing whatsoever to do with Lemmy or its mission?!
Come on internet, grow up and show some respect for internet architecture. TLDs are not just for jokes or decoration, they actually mean something.
It’s because they were giving free domains for a long time. Then when they were recently being revoked, Dessalines paid for the domain to keep it (I’m guessing to avoid losing the current community+their m+l origins?)
It’s a Marxist lenninist server, hence the ML. The developers of lemmy are m-ls.
On my lemmy.world account I see no content from lemmy.ml
I can see content from lemmy.one and lemmy.ml from communities I’m subscribed to.
example:
Sort both by New to see the problem. This sucks.
lemmy.ml is now getting some lemmy.world content
Not good. Hopefully they can get things figured out quickly.
Why would be 2 biggest instances be defedarating from each other?
This would be a terrible choice. For me it’s enough that some instances are down from time to time.
Where does it say they’ve defedarated?
Seems like the federation is just broken for some reason, maybe load issues on Lemmy.world
It’s the Wild West out here. Different admins who have never worked together on this scale have to figure out how to work in digital society. It’s kind of like handing a libertarian the reins to government and watching how they slowly realize they have to govern instead of just complaining about those in power. It’s going to be messy, there are going to be blackouts, and at some point they’ll realize they can’t do everything they want and some users will complain that they sold out by blocking this or that.
Just hang on for the ride.
… like handing a libertarian the reigns to government …
Reins. Handing the reins.
