Same, including the “been trying for days” part.

That does seem like it would cover some cases. In my case, I’m noticing this with instances I’m fairly confident my base instance federated with, because other posts from the instances are visible to me. For example, I didn’t get a notification for your reply, but looking from Beehaw I was able to paste the link and find it that way. For other instances, I have no luck trying the same thing, even if I step back to pasting the post or the community, despite having other posts from the same time period accessible to me.

A practice like allowing or disallowing downvotes cannot on its own be judged “healthy” or “unhealthy”.

I just got this same thing twice now whenever I try to view a post outside my instance (which is problematic since federation is not working well right now). “CrowdSec Access Forbidden”

Some feedback to see if this is similar for others. First I tried searching ‘skypictures’ and only this post came up. Then I tried ‘[email protected]’ and got nothing. Lastly I tried ‘sky pictures’ and it appeared, but with only one post instead of two.

I’m noticing the same thing for some (but not all) subscriptions to communities on other instances. I’ll try retrying for some of them though, hadn’t considered it.

Update: Not sure if I’m just lucky but clicking ‘Subscribe Pending’ then resubscribing appears to have fixed all of them.

There was another post about them abandoning all their Mastodon instances for a while (like over a month) until a bunch of people complained but I’m not sure how to find it. I think this article is from before that happened.

Thanks, I’m glad it’s not permanent because I’d like to give it a try as well.

I can’t open kbin.social over Tor. It gets stuck on the Cloudflare verification page.

I’m not a Beehaw user but I just wanted to let Africans (including the diaspora) know that baraza.africa is an option.
