Tried to visit the main site, and this popped up?

    I just visited it and it came up fine for me. Probably just a host blip or they’re updating something.

    As was already mentioned, they’ve defederated from a lot of instances, but they’re instance is still running. Just don’t expect to interact with it from lemmy.world or the 377 other instances that have been blocked.

    If you had an account and then deleted it, you will get this page until you delete you beehaw cookies. It tries to automatically log you in on your old account and then fails with this error as it was deleted.

    I’m not sure if this is unique to beehaw or across all Lemmy instances.

    Getting an error page sometimes when visiting a popular Lemmy instance is normal unfortunately. The popular instances get a lot of traffic, and that is probably what causes this. I have had this happen with Lemmy.world a few times so far.

    Even on Reddit this wasn’t that rare. They just have a system in between that hands you a nice error page with a sad looking Snoo and an error message.

      Yeah, it’s less common in the era of modern cloud computing and 99% uptime, but in the era of the fail whale wasn’t that long ago. The fediverse is a whole new tech paradigm run mostly by hobbyists. It’s going to have to grapple with those same problems as it grows

    It’s up for me. This might just be a fail-safe response if the server software drops or something like that (especially since the Lemmy software hasn’t been thoroughly tested except lately). If Beehaw intended to permanently take down their instance they’d probably make beehaw.org link to a blog post instead of a white screen that just says “deleted”.

    They have decided to defederate with .world, so did kbin. They felt that too many new users were going to their communities and breaking their rules.

      kbin did not defederate with .world, and beehaw hasn’t defederated yet with kbin (although I guess sooner or later they will) so I do not know what you are talking about. In any case, this has nothing to do with the ability or inability to see the site, which on my end works fine btw.

      I thought kbin.social was temporarily not federating with anyone, as their cloudflare protection was blocking it

        Yesterday kbin removed that restriction, and now they are fully federated with lemmy. But I don’t know if all “magazines” (kbin communities) are fully synchronised, a couple I was following finished to synchronise only this morning.

          Is there a kbin community finder similar to lemmys? Everytime I check kbin it seems it’s just an interface to Lemmy…

            @jsqribe@feedly.j-cloud.uk

            https://browse.feddit.de works only for Lemmy’s instances and communities, so if you want something more precise than your instance’s search bar you should go to https://kbin.social/magazines and then copypaste the link to your instance (in your case feedly.j-cloud.uk ) search bar if you want to subscribe to it. In all cases, Kbin is different form Lemmy if seen from its own site, since they are trying to do a more comprehensive social platform, while instead Lemmy is just trying to be a link aggregator (The same typology of Reddit and of other now defunct sites). So, to summarise up, from lemmy you can see all the contents of kbin (which is a different software) but the “experience” is different from the one you have on the kbin site and thus, functionally, when using a lemmy instances kbin can be treated as another lemmy instance, even if it isn’t.

              Thanks @ElSapo@lemmy.world,

              Have subscribed to a few “magazines” from kbin. They are showing as pending but assume it just needs to do some syncing on my instance.

              I think where I went wrong before was trying this with kbin.run and not kbin.social as they had the CloudFlare protection at the time.

      I’m not on l.world. Even so I should be able to visit the main instance and see the top posts.

        possible theyve decided to defederate entirely, though i doubt that. I’m able to go to beehaw.org and see their posts just fine

          Old posts and comments will be seen, new ones won’t be seen. One-sided defederation is like two linked servers delinking from one another - you keep the old info but you basically desync and one side can’t see the other if they add new stuff.
          That’s why I have accounts on both kbin and l.world - so that I am able to access more information as it gets updated. It seems the influx of new users is leading to a fracturing and a defederation of the biggest instances, so having one account for all of the threadiverse is not viable.

            They don’t have the beefiest server ever, although most lemmy instances don’t. I experienced that 404 page and a 502 page a few times over the last few days, there are just random moments, possibly due to high traffic, where it became inaccessible for a few minutes at a time.

      Please don’t spread rumors like this, it’s not true. There are several kbin instances in their linked instances column and none of them are blocked, including kbin.social.
