I have noticed this couple of times, I can’t reply to users from kbin.social. The loader keeps spinning, and if you refresh, the reply doesn’t show.

Is this a known issue, or just some random network / system load issue?

Solution (also posted as a comment below) Select ‘English’ as the language for the reply, otherwise it won’t post to any instance that doesn’t have ‘undetermined’ in the languages or to kbin.social account.

I am reading this from kbin.social if you want to test things some more.

And I am replying from a completely different instance. Isn’t the Fediverse great? (Even though I also noticed that comments from others on my own posts do not show up in my own instance)

Why is your comment highlighted yellow for me? (via lemmy.world web ui)

@alejandro it’s a reply to a comment or post. If you never used third party apps and only official then that’s probably why you haven’t seen it before. All the lines you see are different levels of replies

Yeah, that’s what’s confusing. Replies to you are posting, but take the following comment as an example https://lemmy.world/comment/222313 , I have tried posting a reply to it at least half a dozen times. Even right after replying to you, but it just keep spinning and doesn’t post.

Same thing with few other kbin.social in that community. Not sure what the difference is between your and that accounts.

A long reply, copied text from Wikipedia’s featured article:

Cyathus is a genus of bird’s nest fungi in the family Nidulariaceae, so named since they resemble tiny bird’s nests filled with eggs. The “eggs”, or peridioles, are attached to the inner surface of the fruiting body by a cord of mycelium. Both surfaces of the cup may be ridged longitudinally, a taxonomic characteristic that has traditionally served to distinguish between species. Cyathus species are widely distributed across the globe, and some are found in most countries, although a few are localized. C. stercoreus is considered endangered in a number of European countries. Generally considered inedible, Cyathus species are saprobic, obtaining nutrients from decomposing organic matter. They usually grow on decaying woody material, on cow and horse dung, or directly on humus-rich soil. The life cycle of this genus allows them to reproduce both sexually via meiosis, and asexually via spores. Phylogenetic analysis has provided insights into the relationships between the various species.

This is really weird, I can reply to you, but still can’t reply to kbin.social users in my community. Both are on lemmy.world, and my community is even much smaller than this community, so size shouldn’t be an issue either.

Thanks. Since the wheel never stops spinning, you can’t see that the comment went through. I’m sure it will be sorted out. So far, this place has done an admirable job dealing with all of us refugees fleeing from Reddit.

I can’t seem to find kbin-communities on lemmy.world when the kbin has a capital-letter in it. Lemmy is universally using lowercase letters.

I’m excited that kbin and lemmy are able to interact. Hopefully with some development effort, they’ll be more compatible. But our communities can’t interact perfectly quite yet.

I think part of the issue with that is that the Magazines (kbin’s Community equivalent) are case sensitive for some reason.

So theoretically there could be a kbin magazine called /m/TodayILearned as well as one named /m/todayilearned

Well, these are relatively new applications and it’s going to take some time to take out all the kinks.

Not to mention many things that work normally sometimes break down when you put load on them.

Looking forward to brighter future! 🙂

There currently seems to be an issue between Lemmy and kbin instances syncing up, I don’t know if we know what side is causing the issue at the moment

I think some amount of federation broke a few hours ago. I haven’t been able to confirm because it seems inconsistent, but things are definitely slow to propagate to other instances and back to here. For example, I can see some of my comments have likes if I check on other instances, but when I look at my own profile, they still show 0.
