Are there federation problems with Hexbear or did they stop moderating with Yiffit?

3 years ago by Xirup to c/meta

I really only follow one Hexbear community here in Yiffit which is !libre@hexbear.net, but I just noticed that since 4 months ago there are no updates in c/libre here in Yiffit, although if you go to the community directly from Hexbear there are new recent posts, and a lot of them.

I already checked the instances blocked by Hexbear and Yiffit doesn't seem to be among them, but neither in "allowed" or "linked" instances, although I have no idea what it's the difference between these.

Any idea why this could be?

IIRC Yiffit defederated with Hexbear, and... honestly, good riddance? The interactions I had with hexbear users were almost universally some of the most unpleasant I've ever had on Lemmy

Hexbear is still within the list of linked instances, as I do not see a "Blocked instances" list on the Instances page yet. On the other hand, this instance may still be running an older version of Lemmy (0.18.5) and has still yet to update to 0.19.3.

Ah, I did not know this was a problem. The only reason I haven't upgraded yet is because it could break the current config. In any case, I'll try doing it as soon as possible.

Could it be because nobody from there is subbed here? I know federation can be weird if there is no subscriptions.
