Why is the "Activities behind" count between us and Lemmy.World increasing? (lemmy.ca)

Decided to check out the site above and I'm not sure if I'm reading things correctly, but it looks like we're running behind Lemmy.World by a significant amount compared to the other major instances. I'm also noticing the scores of my posts in a Lemmy.World community is not updating despite receiving upvotes.

Anyone else experiencing similar issues or any odd issues in general?

Thanks for flagging this, I don't think it's an issue on our side. I've whitelisted LW in our cloudflare just in case, and reached out to one of the LW admins.

They've restarted their federation container and seems to be dropping now.

Thank you! Glad things are working again. :)

Hey at Dec 2 7,:30am PST, activities appear to be lagging behind once again. My Hot feed has no world posts.

Edit: it's back

Looks like it's happening again. It happened once yesterday (at a smaller scale), and again today. Any chance you may know if the LW team is aware of this being a recurring issue?

[–] Shadow@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 months ago

I don't know. I'll poke them again.

It was due to a bad ram stick, should be fixed for good now.

[–] DundasStation@lemmy.ca 1 points 3 months ago

That's a relief. Thank you!
