Why are only SOME communities inaccessible on lemmy.world?

dysprosium@lemmy.dbzer0.com to /0@lemmy.dbzer0.com – 20 points –

I can access c/world on lemmy.world without problem:

lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/world@lemmy.world

But I cannot access c/whatstheword:

lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/whatstheword@lemmy.world

It seems unlikely that this specific and innocent community is blocked on either instance.

What's going on here?

Lol, what? db0 is a medium sized instance ran by one of the former /r/piracy admins when they jumped ship during the exodus, and it's reasonably active with a decent amount of real users and a very active owner.

World is by far the largest instance by a huge margin. It is such an outlier that it effectively should be disregarded in comparisons with other instances.
