Support / questions about Lemmy.
I'm seeing this comment organically (I e. Not via your profile) fine on Lemmy.fmhy.ml.
I can see your post from lemmy.wtf :)
Because of the huge influx of new users (and bugs), federation will sometimes lag behind.
I'm on lemmy.world and see your post just fine, with all its comments.
I also went directly to lemmy.ml to check and I don't see differences from what I see on lemmy.world, maybe it's just a delay on federation? Accessing lemmy.ml sometimes give a bad gateway error.
I see your post from kbin.social (which isn't even a Lemmy instance)
I can see this from dormi.zone
I saw you from Aussie.world
hello from kbin
So it seems the issue is intermittent, as other comments have testified. Still might be a problem worth addressing.
But it is a real issue. The regular 'nginx 500' errors on lemmy.ml and other instances are a problem that is impacting federaton, not just webapp clients.
See open bug reports: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3203 and https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3101
I noticed this yesterday as well. Made a post from lemmy.ca to lemmy.world I saw on lemmy.ca my post had about 100 upvotes and a bunch of comments.
Hopped into kbin because everyone kept raving about it, so my post with like 160 upvotes and way more comments.
Kept hopping back and forth between instances trying to reply to comments that would only appear on Kbin.
So I created an account on Kbin with the same username so I could reply to comments that didn't appear on lemmy.ca.
Kbin.social is definitely the most polished instance right now.
Weird stuff is happening with Federation. I was in a huge discussion on a post with over 500 comments, as a kbin user talking primarily to Lemmy users. Since I'm still evaluating Lemmy vs kbin, I decided to go see what they thread looked like from a Lemmy users perspective since it was fairly large. I happen to already have an account on the instance this big conversation was happening on. I cannot find it. I sorted by Hot, Active, even sorted by Comments since it had so many. It's simply not there. And yet, I can see it via kbin, and plenty of Lemmy people can see it because we all commented on it all day yesterday. But the instance that actually hosts the community it all happened on doesn't show the post at all.
Strange things are afoot in the Fediverse.
Just seen your post from feddit.uk :) I do agree though, I have an account on feddit and on lemmy.world and when I view the same communities from both accounts I see a totally different number of comments or no comments at all / some posts don't show up / whatever. There's definitely some issues going on here and there.
This. I’m commenting from rblind.com, and yours is the only comment I’m seeing, pun not intended. I hadn’t really noticed this until now, I just assumed Lemmy wasn’t all that popular yet. I’m guessing I’d see no comments whatsoever if I wasn’t subscribed to communities on feddit.uk.
I'm reading your post from my account at feddit.de. So there's that.
Jup, Same here
Hello from beehaw
I thought beehaw defederated? Confused
They defederated from shitjustworks and Lemmy.world. They left .ml federated.
