So I can load other communities on lemmit.online from this server but they all only have posts older than 8-9 months. BoRU only has posts 9 months and younger. So whatever caused the disconnect happened roughly 8-9 months ago.
EDIT: Yup! Just reread this comment that mentions lemmit online’s outdated version and the the timeline matches right up. Mystery solved, but idk what to do about it other than messaging whoever runs that server.
The bot is banned.
I can confirm that we did ban the lemmit repost bot a while back. Many users were complaining about the volume of bot posts and lack of comments and found the whole thing confusing.
I will talk to the other admins and see if we can figure out some kind of middle ground, because I do see the value of being able to access a mirror of BORU from Lemmy.

Thank you. I just try to treat people fairly and communicate clearly, and let everything else fall into place from there. I really, really, appreciate when our users express satisfaction with our moderation, because the first few months were kinda rocky at times and I often felt like I was taking criticism from multiple angles. Ever since we brought in kersploosh and IEGS as admins, we have had a lot more positive feedback about our moderation. We make a good team.
I’ll be sure to let you know if we figure something out on this topic.
