EDIT: we just crossed 30K 🥳


We are now at 28.5K users (see https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list). The top 10 instances also got a decent boost in user count. With the exception of beehaw.org which defederated, the Fediverse is thriving 🔥

    It means we can’t see/talk to them, and vice versa. You may still see old beehaw posts and comments, that were already cached on our side, and can even interact with them, but none of that data will make it to them

      Tha k you for the explanation guys, it’s clear to me now. One last question, did they do it on purpose and if so why would they?

        They did it on purpose because apparently there was a troll attack on them and they don’t have enough mod power to deal with it.
