In perusing the Lemmy community list, I’ve noticed several times the dormant !ukraine@lemmy.ca community mentioning a consolidation with !ukraine@feddit.kyiv.ua. As the latter instance has since gone offline, I inquired with the !ukraine@lemmy.ca moderator about switching the consolidation to one of the other two active Ukraine communities.
I was subsequently informed that the change had indeed already been made, but that the version of the community on lemmy.dbzer0.com didn’t reflect it. As the updated version is visible on both the original lemmy.ca page, as well as the lemmy.world version of it, is there a reason our version of it is out of date?
Edit: Seems that subscribing to the community to federate it updated it successfully.
The update won’t be pulled if nobody on your instance follows the “dead” community. Try subscribing to it and see what happens.
