Thanks to a comment by @[email protected] , I checked and saw that 'Federation debugging' mode was enabled. I had enabled that when the server just started (less than 3 weeks ago) and I had an issue with federation.

I thought I had switched that off again, but apparently not. This mode causes the federation to be done in the foreground, so your 'Post' or 'Comment' action will wait for that to finish...

This solves the most annoying issue, and makes the site way more useable. There are many other issues, but we'll get there.

Wow, i figured that was just a lemmy issue across all instances. Thank you for figuring that out!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Congrats!

Actually I am testing comment speed, but still congrats.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Aight it's faster now, but not super fast yet. Congrats anyway :D

Thanks for the fix ! I also thought it was a general lemmy issue and not a lemmy.world one.

Edit : I seem to still have the "wheel keeps spinning, have to reload to see my comment posted" issue, is that the one you're talking about here ? But tbf it was an issue I even already had on Reddit (mobile web) so I can't be mad πŸ˜…

I noticed the slowness when using the api, sometimes it wouldn't even respond, thank you

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Testing.

E: Seems to work.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks, not a test at all.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Great to hear! Long live Limmy.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'm also experiencing slowness with upvotes. Would this also be impacted?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

No it's not

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It does feel a lot smoother, thank you for your efforts!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Cheers! Thank you for all your hard work maintaining the instance.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (4 children)

At least it was only for a few weeks and didn't live in production for years πŸ˜‚

I can definitely tell there is improvement. Thank you for the hard work! This place is great thanks to you and all the others like you!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Brilliant, thanks for fixing the issue!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Lekker bezig! Thanks!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Sweet thank you

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Great news! Now you just need to post this to /m/programminghumor 🀣 Thank you!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Oh man I thought that was "Just how Lemmy is…" and resigned myself to baby-sitting my posts.

Thanks for checking and correcting the issue!

BTW, as a sprout on Lemmy.world is there an official "Bug Report" mechanism we should be using?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

So much faster now, thank you! It's always solved by some random setting you forgot to change.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Hooray! And thank you.

Are you aware that creating a new account sometimes gets a spinner that seems to hang forever too? Is that related?

I found an odd bug.

I tried creating a comment on a pc browser here:

https://lemmy.world/post/188235?scrollToComments=true

And had the endless circle.

Used Jerboa on android and it gave an error: "that language is not allowed". So I went back to the browser and chose english and it worked.

I can post on other posts, though.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That happens when replying to people on instances with strict languages rules (e.g. Kbin)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I hope the language chooser will be UI wise fixed. It is not really usable.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It should be, it's definitely annoying.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago

This is awesome. This isn't even our final form 😎

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm not able to post to c/news since I just get a spinner icon forever. No one else has posted there for the past day either, and there has been plenty of news since then. I've been able to post to some other communities. So something seems to be wrong specifically with c/news which surprisingly isn't a highly active community like its reddit (or should I say deaddit) counterpart.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I just tested and I can post there... Can you maybe retry (perhaps in a fresh browser window?)

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Thanks for the update, @Ruud, although while we're on the subject of posting issues I have a problem with one particular post that I am trying to add to a community here that I moderate.

Basically, it's a long list of archived Reddit threads that formed the bulk of our subreddit's wiki. Each item in the list has a hyperlink that leads back to a Reddit post.

I have tried to submit it about a dozen times over the past few days and twice again since you made this post, but all I get is the little spinny wheel of eternity and the post is never successful.

Is that because of an issue with external links or something else, do you think?

Edit: ok, apprently it's a known issue with Lemmy.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 1 year ago

Have you tried changing the language to english?

I had the same problem just now when trying to reply to a post.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Cool! I’ve noticed a significant improvement this morning!
