Hello,

I’m the mod of Japanese Metal. For a few days now, the community appears empty to me, both on Liftoff and my browser on my desktop. Edit: it’s fine if I view it on my lemm.ee account, but that’s not optimal.

What might be the cause, and how do I fix it? Anyone with a similar problem?

Thanks in advance.

    Damn my feed looks much better now that I’m top day/top 6 hrs. I had no idea hot and active weren’t ideal. I thought that was just a lemmy thing.

      IIRC, the “Hot” thing is a known bug in Lemmy that can be temporarily fixed by restarting the instance. Also IIRC, the admin restarted sh.itjust.works like a week ago, and “Hot” was working immediately after that, for at least a few days.

      I’m still using mostly “Top 6 Hours” until the sorting algo for “Hot” and “Active” is improved.

      But it doesnt change te fact that some of my subs are much more active / populated when viewing through my other instance account. Of course its hard to tell which instance is “to blame”, but some things are weird.

          Yeah is lemmy.world having sync issues with us? I noticed there are days of posts missing in a community I moderate.

            Something is definitely going on. I posted a bug to an app community on Lemmy.world and found it never showed up half a day later and may still not for all I know.

        Lol yeah I’m realizing 196 is more popular than expected. Maybe there is a better way but at least this is a step in the right direction.
