PSA for Lemmy instance admins: in backend v0.18.3 there is a bug that causes your instance to stop federating properly and to stop sending out outgoing messages - Lemmy.ca
There's been some discussion about the dead instance checker over on !fediverse!fediverse@lemmy.world being a bit overzealous but I didn't see anything here, so I wanted to raise it.
I did some spot checking of the instance table and can confirm that several of the instances with an older updated date were indeed actually up.
