this doesn't just affect lemmy.ml.

it seems that lemmy.ml -> lemm.ee was somehow fixed yesterday, but there are several other instances that also have issues sending to lemm.ee:

  • hexbear.net: was broken since 2024-10-23, fixed since 2024-10-25
  • lemmy.blahaj.zone: broken since 2024-10-24
  • lemmy.ml: was broken since 2024-11-01, seems fixed since 2024-11-16
  • startrek.website: broken since 2024-11-15

you'll probably want to wait for 0.19.7, which will fix at least https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/5182.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/5196 is also something to keep an eye on.

peertube embeds are supposed to be fixed in lemmy 0.19.6, so when updating to that lemmy version they should start working again

does it work if you search again?

search for remote content sometimes doesn't show up the first time you try, searching again just after that can help.

if the channel still doesn't show up, does searching for an individual video work?

this is the important part.

when an account is deleted the associated private key used for signing activities is deleted as well. the activitypub protocol does not really define how software is supposed to deal with deleted and recreated actors (which includes users), so some software has been built with the assumption that any change of encryption keys for a user means it's an invalid signature and will prevent activities involving that user to federate to that software.

If the sole moderator of a community was banned from an instance, does that make the community unavailable to the instance they were banned from?

yes, if the ban was with content removal and they're the top mod.

If the community had multiple moderators and only one was banned, would that still be the issue?

the filter is whether the user being banned is the top mod.

this seems more of a federation issue than a defederation issue ;)

that is likely related to https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/pull/5107, which limits the resolution of thumbnails.

the client you are using is probably only displaying the thumbnails to you, not the original images.

edit: this seems to include lemmy-ui as well

edit 2: raised a bug report for lemmy-ui

it may be related to the older lemmy version.

the latest lemmy version has changed how metadata is fetched for posts coming from federation and it will no longer be processed while receiving the federated activity, instead it will be processed in the background. sometimes, metadata for urls cannot be fetched within the time limit and then the post will not federate properly if it's not happening in the background.

I think most (especially mobile) clients simply don't have this option and will always copy/share the "fedi link" - the url where the content is canonically hosted. all other URLs are simply cached representations of the original content.

https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/instances shows lemmygrad as blocked, maybe there are some older communities that were never removed on blahaj after defederation?
