I’ve been having issues with searching, and realized this is connected. So when I search for communities through @lemmy.world I can find them just fine. But if I use my home instance @lemmy.blahaj.zone they’re missing - even though I know we’re not defederated. It turns out if I make posts on other instances, those posts won’t show up on my profile.
After the hack my instance changed it’s token (?) Which requires logging in again to comment/post. But when I viewed my profile, my posts were there! Then when I logged in they were gone again. I don’t know anything about how apps work, but something with how it retrieves instance data is messing with features.
Sounds like it. I noted it was a previous version because I haven’t checked if this has changed in the last two weeks.
