Just in case anyone is using their account here to post to off-instance communities: those posts and comments seem to have a very high failure rate. There is a lot of activity and accounts on this instance. This is to raise awareness, not to pull people away or break up the lemmyverse. Quite the opposite really: there is a technical problem on this instance that might be preventing the lemmyverse from functioning as it should.
No you’re not. It’s good to test. There might be differences in our client’s view due to other CDNs, proxies, caching etc. I’m just convinced it’s lemmy.world’s outbound networking. There might be other instances with other problems, and yes the upgrade could be a factor, but the lemmy.world issue is clearly and forwardly apparent.
I had no idea about this issue with LW; thanks for bringing it up.
Do you know if they eventually show up at some point? Or is the request blocked the first time around and there are no other attempts?
By the way, I’ve checked on kbin.social and it looks even more different there lol
A lemmy developer more familiar would have to answer that. It seems inconsistent at best. How consistent it was designed to be might be up for debate, but the average users understanding should AT LEAST match that…
I can see a LOT of failed network connections from lemmy.world to my instance and results of comparing posts. That’s the data I have. :)
