[Issue] Most of my subscriptions are no longer showing up - sh.itjust.works

Like I said above. Most of the subscriptions that I had as of this morning now are no longer showing up. Searching for communities I know exist do not show up in search results. Switching to a lemmy.world account lets me search the community and it returns in results. Checked multiple apps, same results. Currently using Memmy and I’d deleted and reinstalled it, and when I was re-adding sh.itjust.works I noticed it now shows this instance no longer allows user created communities. I’m assuming that was probably due to the bot accounts spam creating communities earlier this week. Could that be why I can only see a very small number of communities now? Is it related to the update that just went out? Or was there some defederation?
