2023-12-20 - Lemmy Release v0.19.1 - Outgoing Federation fix
join-lemmy.org

This fix should fix some our federation problems hopefully. Please let me know if you see any issues and ESPECIALLY let me know if this seems to fix some of the federation issues we have been having. It may take some time for federation to catch up and I’m not 100% sure older posts and votes will catch up. I’m hoping that going forward, this fix will get us going.

Thanks,

    If I look at my profile on Lemmy from a mastodon instance, using a mastodon client, the newest post I can see from me here is 13 days old, but I can see some of the comments made here today.

        Fingers crossed, this reply, coming from Lemmy, will show up on Mastodon.

          @vk6flab@lemmy.radio okay, that proves that two way synchronisation is working.

          Whoot!

          That doesn’t mean I’ve figured out why comments show up on the web interface when I’m not logged in, but vanish as soon as I’m authenticated.

            I was trying to see if some setting may prevent it but didn’t see anything. Also spent some time looking at GitHub issues as well but nothing caught my eye. Not sure where to go about testing this.

              I’ve also just attempted to send a direct message from Lemmy to Mastodon and Vice Versa, neither is visible on the other platform.

              My testing was in two virgin browser windows, new (disposable) profile, no cookies, no cache, no extensions. Went to lemmy.radio in both and logged into one of them. My settings were loaded, dark mode enabled, comments gone.

              As far as finding a cause, the closest I came was a ticket early to mid last year that was talking about sorting by anything other than Hot causing issues. I had my settings set to New, but changed them to Hot, for both Posts and Comments, no difference.

              Not sure what to try next.

              My historic posts (between 13 days ago and today) are still not visible on Mastodon.

              I’m wondering if my account is corrupted in some way.

              I cannot set it to anything other than “undefined”, or whatever that label is. I’m not near my computer at the moment so I’m going from memory.
