It's not. This is yesterday's news. DDG is back up now.
One thing that annoys me about Lemmy is that it keeps stories on the front page for way too long. They should be gone after about 14-16 hours IMO. Until this is fixed, in the meantime I've been changing my post sort from Active, to Top Posts in the Past 12 Hours.
That’s an issue with content creation, not with Lemmy. Reddit is able to constantly refresh the front page because they have access to a large user base. With that large user base comes a never ending stream of content. Lemmy is nowhere near as large, so old posts are able to linger as they’re not getting displaced by new posts.
Yeah, the answer is to post more or just select "Top 6 hours".
14 to 16h is too short for a default. Not everyone will (or even has) the ability to take out their smartphone multiple times per day every day to catch up with the news. Someone who will only read it during the evening, would need posts to stay up 24 to 26h. So that to me is the minimum. Personally I don't mind if they stay up longer, there might be new interesting top comments if the post itself stays on top longer.
If you set it to 'New' Lemmy becomes a whole new place.

It was out yesterday because Bing had problems. So all search engines based on Bing were down.
Microsoft also had issues with Teams yesterday, not a good day for them I suppose. (Maybe it was the day before, can't remember).
