For me, the explore page (projects) on Scratch has nothing in it. I assume it is down?

I am experiencing the same issue with projects (no projects on explore) but studios load.

I am experiencing this issue too. However, the studios are working at least.

The indexer (which powers the explore page) has been down for months now, with some reports all the way back to 2022.
The studio indexer is fine though.

Can replicate. I think it's because no new projects are getting indexed, so Trending has run out of new enough projects.

Projects drop off the explore pages after 6 months.
No new projects have been indexed in over 6 months.

Very simple.

Indeed

We have to wait until Codubee or Becky (Head of Engineering) does something about this since they are the engineers

No, I believe this is about the explore page not showing anything.

Did you even read what I wrote?

How can the explore pages show anything when no projects have been indexed for over 6 months.
