Cross post from lemmy.ml - https://lemmy.ml/post/2640822

Been experimenting and reviewing why our community based on lemmy.world is super active across Lemmy & Mastodon is dead on lemmy.ml - not sure if it's a lemmy.world issue, lemmy.ml issue, or lemmy in general issue so crossposting.

See the screenshots.

Basically, people posting to !alternativenation@lemmy.world from lemmy.world or other instances all seem to work well, even going to Mastodon with no issues.

But lemmy.ml doesn’t seem to be seeing many of the post and is slow to update things like pinned posts.

Nor does lemmy.ml posts to the community seem to be going to Mastodon.

Challenging to build a community on Lemmy when one of the big instances can’t see many of the posts making an active community of over 1500 users seem dead.

There seems to be a federation issue with lemmy.ml indeed, I have the impression that none of today's posts and comments to lemmy.ml communities from within lemmy.world went through. However, other instances do see them.

hope it improves - hard to build on something when major federated instances have a broken connection with each other.

early days, though.... still in a zero-point-X release state, I guess.

@nutomic@lemmy.ml contacted me about an issue with federation, seems we blocked an IP too many in our attempt to block malicious requests.. I've removed that block and federation works again. Sorry about the inconvenience.

thanks! is this the best community to post this stuff when it happens? pretty excited about what we are building on alternative nation, but also know we are in the zero-point-X stage of the platform.

Either post here or mail to info@lemmy.world, and if it's really urgent you could try to reach me via Matrix @ruud:h-y-p-e-r.space. Also for Moderators there's the Discord channel if you're interested

[-] ren@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

thanks ruud! and yeah, I'm interested in the mod discord, got a link handy? if not, I'll dig around

Appreciate the honesty and transparency. I imagine running this is a wee bit stressful, so sharing those lessons really helps to stick with it and appreciate the journey.

How did you identify which IPs to block? I've had several members discuss.online acknowledge failures to sync with lemmy.world. A big reason why I'm posting this is to test that it works.

[-] jgrim@discuss.online 1 points 1 year ago

This is another test.
