I can see your post, and its comments, at lemmy.sdfeu.org.
I keep hearing that Lemmy 0.18 is more reliable, though. Hope we get that soon.
I am on kbin.social and I see your post.
Thanks for the feedback, so it seems that the issue is only to retrieve posts on other instances.
This is showing at sh.itjust.works
I've been having a devil of a time trying to view new communities to subscribe to them. I just keep getting 404 errors.
Communities only appear on this instance if they've already been discovered by somebody. If you get a 404 error, try pasting "!community_name@home.instance.name" into the community search field. It'll say "no results" but it'll actually fetch the community and then you can subscribe.
Sometimes it still just randomly doesn't work though.
I've been having a (possibly) related issue where a post I made on another instance is not getting updated on ours. If I go directly to the instance, i can see comments from days ago that still don't appear in my profile view.
Yeah, federation's been kind of buggy lately.
There's a known bug with some communities like !asklemmy@lemmy.world which hasn't been federated in 11 days now. Something to do with the address (https://lemmy.world/c/asklemmy leads to a 404 but https://lemmy.world/c/asklemmy@lemmy.world works, which shouldn't be happening). There's also now a version mismatch between SDF and some instances like lemmy.ml which are on 0.18 which probably isn't helping.
It's happening to me too. I might take a break from Lemmy for a week and see if it sorts out.
My timeline here - with a few subscriptions to communities on other servers - is also mostly at least three days old. I was assuming that Lemmy activity was just dying off.
Hope I’m wrong!
Wait are you the z3brah?
IDK man, who are you referring to ?
The wmutils brah himself!
I really ought to re-read your blog. Always loved your approach on tooling.
Ah yeah that's me in this case ;) You might want to check my (not-so-much-lately-but-still-active) new log which I now host on gopher: gopher://phlog.z3bra.org (http proxy version). That's where I log about the ideas I have in terms of tools (and there is also the "PROGRAMS" section on my website too).
