I don’t see my comments or DMs (wrote a DM to a second account) on any other instance, is there a problem with outgoing traffic?
@SDF Same here!. It loosk like lemmy.sdf does not do outgoing federation to certain instances. In my case it stopped federating posts, comments and votes to lemmy.wtf. I found the following issue on github which explains how outgoing federation will stop, when another instance is considered dead and not marked alive again due to a scheduled task not running:
Oh wow hope that gets fixed because thats bad and our instance isn’t dead :/
Guess I’ll have to use a alt in the meantime
Imho the current situation is really bad, because
- It usually takes quite a while until you notice that you have been isolated
- It makes your account on
lemmy.sdfpretty much useless, unless you are only posting to local communities.
Can confirm - a comment I made to a lemmy.world community around an hour ago hasn’t shown up on that server yet.
Edit to add: looks like this post correlates with when I was logged out of my session, and I see we’re on a newer version than before. Probably something not quite right from the upgrade?
Acttually the issue with outbound federation not properly working is from before they upgraded to 0.19.0-rc4, but 0.19.X made it even worse, because it breaks various clients, e. g. Jerboa, due to some breaking API changes it introduces.
To me it looks like outbound federation is working again, e. g. posts I create on lemmy.sdf are now federated again to the (original) community on lemmy.wtf.
I noticed this too with Memmy. I haven’t been able to sign in for a couple days.
