Where I live i cant access any .ml instances so for me even the lemmy.ml is down
This is why we host our instance on a .org. Honestly another huge blow for Lemmy. It doesn't really inspire confidence in the platform. Hopefully after enough time passes smaller instances like us and the bigger ones left will have help up a good track record to inspire confidence again.

This is how I search. Click on the search icon in the top right.
Then paste the community you want to search for in the [[email protected]](/c/[email protected]) format. Once you click search wait a few seconds and it should come up. Mabye hit the search button a few more times if it doesn't but it should be there with 10 seconds or so.
Once that is done click on the community is the search results, and the community page should open. On the right you will see the community sidebar where you can subscribe
Hope this helps!
I just did a few quick searches and they all worked perfectly for me? Where you using the [[email protected]](/c/[email protected]) format?
What server are they on? Like what is after the @ symbol? lemmy.ml? lemmy.world sth else?
Im aware that my server may cache illegal content. However this is usually easily delt with. It can simply be removed/user banned and can be purged from the server. This can all be done from the admin settings.
I also dont see the main instances defederating us. Our server will be moderated just as any other main lemmy server would. Just setting it up so that the users from our server can intract with any other server they wish. Any content or anyone who breaks our rules will be removed/banned. Just because we have an open federation policy does not mean there will be a lack of moderation.
Thanks for the legal article has very useful info
Of course it may not be completely possible to live up to the ideal 100% but as long as i make a best effort i think its still if value to the community.
In regards to meta as we aim to federate with all we will also federate with meta. When it comes to content that crosses the line for me I will personally block it but not on an instance level. And when illegal content is fetched it will be removed and purged form the server so im not worried on that front.
I guess we will see how it goes. Mabye i will be forced one way or another to defederate, but that will only come after all other possibilities are exhausted. I beileve it is possible. Especially with better mod tools. But who knows mabye im wrong. We will find out.
The explanation box is more just to prevent bots, once im confident that the captcha is working as intended I'll likely remove it
Well its only a new instance but no problems so far.

By no means did i mean that federated platform's wont work, far from it. Im more considering the reputational damage of the platform. For me all the .ml instances unresolvable. And it doesn't look good when the "official" instance is lost. If i were an outsider considering moving to lemmy and i saw vlemmy disappear, lemmy world get hacked, and .ml loosing their domains id be pretty hesitant on making the switch. Thats where i sit for the moment. Lets all hope we can get a good track record going now.
