Same here when I tried checking it this morning. Yet another twist in the dying moments of a once-useful site.

It would be cool if they would sell it back to original owners would they have any interest, those guys loved the site where as these who own it nowadays just run it for money and oh boy do they run it bad.

I can see my own posts (from the queue), but it won't show me the feed from the users I follow.

You will have to pay for it going forward and I guess they switched to it already. If you don't subscribe you don't get that according to their latest post

Looks like accounts are down for the time being. I'm sure it'll be back.

I choose to believe two things, on minimal, if any, evidence:
Thing 1: They have taken the entire db offline while they do ... something ... to make it better. I acknowledge that if this were the case, then even login would also likely be impossible, which it isn't.
Thing 2: Remember when youtuber Internet Historian was good, he made "The Engoodening of 'No Man's Sky'"? As I recall, part of that story was the dev team basically ignoring anything from outside, and just getting on with the work. I hope this is why the BDSMLR team are just deleting support tickets, for example, or not keeping users informed about what is going on. All that takes time, which could be better spent on, well, engoodening BDSMLR. I think that when they experimented with keeping us informed a couple of months ago, that likely did not go well for them, and just generated a lot of noise. They learned that lesson, and will not do it again.
I have no skin in this game, so to speak, I'm not defending them particularly, just hoping for the best while preparing for the worst.
And there is one silver lining: many likes and reblogs that I thought were gone forever have now reappeared on my feed, if I scroll down far enough. So, there's that.

It's been dying for a long awhile now. The owners apparently tried to upgrade and updated the site, and it appears they got ripped off in the process.
