I noticed my feed on Lemmy was pretty dry today, even for Lemmy. Took me a while to realize lemmy.ml has been going up and down all morning, and isn’t federating new posts.

But, since this is all still federated, I can still create and read posts on other instances while I wait. Even this one! Any other service would just be unavailable completely right now.

I do miss the larger communities on lemmy.ml - asklemmy, memes, and I really wanted to watch the reddit fallout on /c/reddit. Maybe I’ll look around for some good replacements for those. Open to suggestions!

    Can you tell me how I can search for a sub-lemmy? There are a few I think have been started, but I don’t know how to search for them without knowing what instance they are on.

      If you haven’t figured this problem out yet, you want to go to your home instance, click on the communities tab, and then search for a topic or community name that you want. The results should include all instances that your home instance is federated with, and you’ll often have communities from multiple instances to choose from

        Thanks for responding. That is how I was searching, but there was a problem with the indexing across instances.
