I followed my communities from my Mastodon account on die-partei.social to stay up to date. Now I noticed that nothing showed up in my timeline for quite a long time.
Apparently the following has been locked. Communities on lemmy.ml I can still follow without any problems, on lemmy.ca communities I get a notice that a follower request was made - which of course never arrived. The same applies to the attempt to follow my own lemmy.ca account from Mastodon.
Was this option intentionally blocked, is there a problem here?
it’s been over two days and the ipv6 connection appears to be holding. i will continue to monitor it but i believe the issue has been resolved. 🎉
you will probably need to contact the admin of your instance (or I can if you let me know which instance you’re on) so they can re-enable communication with lemmy.ca. from what I understand, since the ipv6 hasn’t been working since late January, mastodon will eventually just give up. so the instance admin I contacted said they just pressed a “Start Deliver” button and things started working again on that instance.
A public explanation of where to find this ‘start deliver’-button would be super if possible. I might have to notify a few for the my larger community. 😉
edit: tried to open a comment or account from various instances I’m on: Mastodon: brands.town, die-partei.social
Friendica: friendica.xyz, loma.ml
None worked. Maybe I’ll rather give up on this.
