I’m sure I sound like a broken record at this point, but is there any word on the federation issues between lemmy.world and Instances like fanaticus.social? Seems it’s been 3-4 weeks since posts/comments federated properly between those two.

I know there has been a lot going on over the last month, and this is probably low on the priority list, but I don’t think I’ve seen it formally addressed here.

Are you sure there isn’t a defederation in there? That sounds like the result of a defederation.

It does sound like that. But it’s a sports-based instance. They just talk about football and baseball, mostly. I have no idea why they would have been intentionally defederated.

They may have defederated world. A few different instances have defederated world because it has open registration, and is one of the primary instances where spam accounts originate.

Fanaticus has a pinned post about the issue, saying they were going to reach out to the lemmy.world admins to see what’s going on. I do think it just requires problem-solving, and isn’t intentional. But I guess I just don’t really know for sure.

Oh, I wonder if it has anything to do with world turning on cloudflare DDOS protection. But yeah, would be odd if there was a deferation involved. Pretty weird situation, hopefully it gets figured out.

They confirmed it wasn’t defederation- it is something to do with CloudFlare.

You can always check what instances someone federates with - there's an "instances" link on the bottom of every Lemmy homepage.

Here’s the latest update from fanaticus.social.
