Empty main feed (piefed.social)

Hi all, I think I am facing some bug. My main feed is empty whatever I try to filter. If I click on specific feed that I follow, I see the posts there. Please, help!

EDIT: So it's photon of piefed.social that stopped to work :(

Blorp dev here. Did some investigating and it looks like Photon is asking PieFed for page 0 of posts. I'm not sure how technical you are, sorry if this is duh, but programmers like to start counting things from 0. PieFed however doesn't seem to like this.

Here's what I think is happening:

Photo asks for page 0 of posts
PieFed says "there are no posts at page 0"
Photon thinks if page 0 is empty, then there is no page 1

What should happen:

Photo should ask for page 1 of posts
PieFed will respond "there are 25 posts on page 1"
Photon says page 1 is full so page 2 must have content
Photon then asks PieFed for page 2 of posts
...etc until we run out of pages of posts

In other words, page 0 is a short circuit that prevents the entire feed from loading

Or maybe we wanna fix this at the API level? @rimu@piefed.social @wjs018@piefed.social

This seems like it was broken in a recent update since this issue just popped up (i think)

Thank for the explanation, it was clear. So it was an address problem :)
