How come I can't see a community any longer? (lemmy.ca)

I can't see any content from https://lemmy.ca/c/progressivepolitics@lemmy.world even though the community is right there https://lemmy.world/c/progressivepolitics

Instead I see a "Error! There was an error on the server" message.

As far as I can tell from my modlog and the modlog of the community I haven't been banned.

I can see other lemmy.world communities, like for example https://lemmy.ca/c/world@lemmy.world so I don't think some kind of block at the instance level has happened.

What is going on?

Odd, it showed as "Removed by mod" on our side. I've restored it now.

    How does a mod remove a community? That a thing?

    From my understanding, admins can "remove" communities, and mods can "delete" them. The effect is similar for users in both cases, and the difference is in who can restore the community.

    This case looks like some kind of federation issue with LW. Maybe that community was briefly deleted/removed as a test, but the undo action didn't federate over to us? The only record I can find about this community is the restore action from 2 days ago

    That's weird. It used to work for me. It no longer does.

    It could be blocked/defederated by lemmy.ca
