are there federation issues with lemmy.world?

i've noticed lately that there seems to be federation issues with lemmy.world. i don't receive updates from communities or users there, and looking at my profile from lemmy.world, it's missing a few comments that were posted in the last days, when usually it's much much quicker to update.

even when looking at .world communities on here when not logged in, they seem to be stuck in the past! for example, from here the last post from !games@lemmy.world is from 5 days ago, but on .world there are many more recent posts.

does anyone else have issues with them? are we blocking them, or are they blocking us?

Ok, somehow lemmy.world ended up on our defederation list.
I don't have the first clue how that happened, but I've removed it from the list, and content should start flowing again.

  Thank you for the quick response.

We run slightly behind on lemmy world posts, but we're talking minutes, not hours (https://grafana.lem.rocks/d/edf3gjrxxnocgd/federation-health-activities-behind?orgId=1&var-instance=All&var-remote_instance=lemmy.blahaj.zone&var-remote_software=All&refresh=5m&from=now-2d&to=now)
There's something weird at play there though...
Edit - It's not lemmy specific. It's impacting our piefed instance as well, which is 4 days behind on that sub.
Will look in to it!

No wonder it all seemed "quiet". My subscriptions to the lemmy.world communities also show up as "subscription pending".
Yesterday I saw lots of "gateway" errors here for hours, and then I found out there's a new location for the instance in lem.lemmy.blahaj.zone

I had just sat down to make a post like this, so thanks for letting me know I'm not getting crazier yet.

Now that you mention it, everything I am subscribed to on lemmy.world is similarly from five days ago. Most notably on the very active !tenforward@lemmy.world
I checked and I don't have it instance blocked, so it doesn't seem to be what @Jorunn@piefed.blahaj.zone is suggesting.
vs.
I wonder if it has anything to do with the recent update that changed the redirect from the front-end?
Maybe the sub-sub-domains aren't properly federating? Since for instance my browser no longer just says https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/ but rather https://lem.lemmy.blahaj.zone/

  That was done less than 24 hours ago. The issues with lemmy.world federation predate it
  Also, the change of the front end UI URL doesn't change anything behind the scenes, anymore than using a 3rd party app from your phone does. The backend is still sitting on the existing domain.

  Oh, you are both lemmy and not piefed. Strange. I am also not seeing anything newer than 4-5 days on tenforward here on piefed.
Jorunn @piefed.blahaj.zone 1d ago
I accidentally blocked .world at some point and had the same problem. Check if you haven't done the same
- Chloé 🥕 @lemmy.blahaj.zone 1d ago
  
  i thought about it, but no, it's not in my blocked instances list...
  closest is that around the time federation stopped working, i blocked a bunch of alts of one serious powermod on lemmy.world, but i don't see how that could cause the problem... and they're a big poster, but they don't post everything, obviously
