I don't see my comments or DMs (wrote a DM to a second account) on any other instance, is there a problem with outgoing traffic?

@SDF Same here!. It loosk like lemmy.sdf.org does not do outgoing federation to certain instances. In my case it stopped federating posts, comments and votes to lemmy.wtf. I found the following issue on github which explains how outgoing federation will stop, when another instance is considered dead and not marked alive again due to a scheduled task not running:

Oh wow hope that gets fixed because thats bad and our instance isn't dead :/

Guess I'll have to use a alt in the meantime

Imho the current situation is really bad, because

  1. It usually takes quite a while until you notice that you have been isolated
  2. It makes your account on lemmy.sdf.org pretty much useless, unless you are only posting to local communities.

Yeah, i think we should DM the admin about this

Is this a bug related to updating to 0.19? I just noticed they did that and my account on the app immediately stopped working.

[-] necropola 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Acttually the issue with outbound federation not properly working is from before they upgraded to 0.19.0-rc4, but 0.19.X made it even worse, because it breaks various clients, e. g. Jerboa, due to some breaking API changes it introduces.

Honestly, this unannounced upgrade to 0.19.X is quite a kick in the butt.

Also broke the inbox on desktop, was showing empty for me even though it shows the notifications. I had to manually go to the thread to see this message (lucky I keep tabs open).

I agree that this unannounced upgrade is quite the shock to the system and also lemmy 0.19 hasn't even officially dropped yet so it seems kind of strange to update to it now.

Try deleting site data for lemmy.sdf.org in your browser and log in again. I usually do this after lemmy (UI) updates.

[-] scroll_responsibly 2 points 1 year ago

It’s likely the upgrade was an attempt to fix federation

[-] Monument 2 points 1 year ago

Which app? Currently here due to Memmy issues.

[-] Draconic_NEO 3 points 1 year ago

The Liftoff app, very recently stopped working and wouldn't let me log back in. Checked the site and realized why.

[-] OKRainbowKid 1 points 1 year ago

I have the same issue with Sync.

Can confirm - a comment I made to a lemmy.world community around an hour ago hasn't shown up on that server yet.

Edit to add: looks like this post correlates with when I was logged out of my session, and I see we're on a newer version than before. Probably something not quite right from the upgrade?

@SDF Looks like it's happening again. Outbound federation stopped. I have tested this from two other lemmy instances. I can still pull comments from lemmy.sdf.org via search, but neither posts/comments nor votes are actively pushed out.

Which means that lemmy.sdf.org is in a bubble. Nobody hears us. Can you please look into this and/or state whether you are intending to maintain this lemmy instance or not.

[-] necropola 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

To me it looks like outbound federation is working again, e. g. posts I create on lemmy.sdf.org are now federated again to the (original) community on lemmy.wtf.

[-] blasterx 2 points 1 year ago

I noticed this too with Memmy. I haven’t been able to sign in for a couple days.

And it seems to be happening again.
