I'm getting an error looking up any community on lemmings.world via my client.

I'm not sure if lemmings.world is down, or the link which allows federation with feddit.uk has broken.

It's difficult to tell when I have no way of viewing lemmings.world any more due to the annoying geoblocking.

I did see a note on the feddit.uk homepage earlier about the server moving so hopefully it's just some IP addresses needing updating.

What client? It could be making direct API calls to lemmings.world and getting blocked.

Connect, the error suggests it's feddit.uk returning the error. It has always worked in the past, although it did log me out of everything today so possibly something was cached previously which isn't now.

Paging @kuro_neko@lemmy.ca for any input.

Hmm, so federation seems to be working, at least I managed to post a comment from another instance, and mod the user. What they've posted hasn't made it back here yet.

Some context: I have a bot I run on !dailybunnies@lemmings.world I set all this up before the site was geoblocked, otherwise I would have put it elsewhere. As it happened, everything still worked so I didn't immediately notice the blocking. The bot (which runs on Google compute in Belgium) stopped working today at the same time as Connect.

I'm thinking now that something has been hardened at lemmings.world which means it's pretty much unusable for me.
