I've noticed that at least one community from mander.xyz hasn't loaded since the update a few days ago. Here's an example:

https://beehaw.org/c/nativeplantgardening@mander.xyz?dataType=Post&page=1&sort=New

https://mander.xyz/c/nativeplantgardening?dataType=Post&page=1&sort=New

I'm not sure if this is happening elsewhere. Has anyone else noticed this?

Two big instances were defederated by Beehaw recently because there were no sufficient tools to deal with problematic users. For detailed information have a look at the announcement.

... [the] unfortunate reality we’ve also found is we just don’t have the tools or the time here to parse out all the good from all the bad. all we have is a nuke and some pretty rudimentary mod powers that don’t scale well. ...

In case you want to see pre-moderated contet you can look at the mod log. I read a couple of pages some weeks ago. Besides a good amount of technical stuff like double posts, there was a lot of racist, trans-/homophobe content and general insults. What we see is the result of plenty of work done with insuffient tools. Keep in mind Lemmy is still 0.xx.
