So I remember a couple of days ago when I went to https://lemmyverse.net/ it showed about 30k communities, now it only shows 9k. Does anyone know what happens?
I was trying to search for a coffee community and it didn’t basically show anything, same for espresso while I know that there are communities about it.
Do some alternative community search engines exist which perhaps even find PieFed and Mbin communities?

I know that other services, like the trending community bot, that recent had issues in the same vein. The trend bot only showed like 3 communities, and it normally shows about a dozen.
So, there is likely a federation issue, or something wrong with however these services get their data.
MrKaplan mentioned that there were a ton of “spam communities”, so possibly they have since been removed. They weren’t real anyway. https://lemmy.world/comment/13613002.
