Comment on NFL.Community - Not Seeing Posts

If you go to that website directly without logging in, do you see the posts? It is entirely possible that there are no posts there - sports communities aren’t getting a lot of non-bot traffic.
If there are posts, how old are they? If you are sorting by top, you won’t see any posts that were posted outside your selected time frame.
If neither of those are the issue, I’d blame Lemmy.world. They have cloudflare rules that block other instances without listing them as defederated. It is possible they’ve moved to a whitelist or some other trust based model that blocks new instances by default.
This is a side effect of them having been under a near constant DDOS and other cyberattacks, and so is definitely defensible, however it ultimately hurt the UX for me to the point that I just moved to a different instance.

I just went and checked without being logged in to lemmy.world, and the latest post from nfl.community/c/nfl is 5 minutes ago, the one under that is 37 minutes ago. This seems to be a pretty active server, which is one of the reasons why I want to subscribe to communities on it.
I’m assuming this is a lemmy.world issue, which is why I’m posting here. I’m hoping that it’s just some mistake, and that there’s something that can be done, because I don’t want to move instances again. But it’s that important to me.
