lemmy.ml meta

Try several days lmao compare and contrast my lemmy.ml profile with my lemmygrad.ml profile

For some reason crazypeople.online gets lemmygrad but not vice-versa. Lemdro.id also has its own federation issues so I have no clue what's going on

At this point I'm holding off until I get my own instance with Photon UI set up. I like how it handles tags. Makes it easy to browse articles on a particular date in history with one click across diff accounts/communities (keeping posts sorted into separate RSS feeds)

My posts eventually federated (but not the comments on them), but several recent ones from yogthos, including the one screenshotted, still haven’t - doesn’t look like there’s any ban there (it’d be surprising).

One I made ~30 minutes ago hasn’t federated yet either.

https://lemmy.ml/c/science@lemmygrad.ml?dataType=Post&sort=New for my own convenience since it’s looking like I might need to xpost to Hexbear from my account there again instead of continuing to snub them because the admins won’t live up to the higher standards I hold them to.

Sorry, my screenshots don’t actually show that I got to the ml science comm from the grad xpost because I wasn’t paying enough attention to what I was screenshotting where. I should have showed the xpost link or the local science comm viewed from grad. Regardless, it’s still how things look at the moment (no upvote here because I eventually got around to that locally where it will definitely federate and am not trying to double vote on anything):

Hey @nutomic@lemmy.ml, as the admin-who-is-also-a-mod-here-and-a-dev-too, you have been “randomly” selected to be informed that federation sucks and I hate it.

Based on prior experiences elsewhere, I think this is on ml to fix.

I’ll try to pay closer attention if/when (unless you fix/get someone else to fix it first) it happens again, but I think my most recent post might have federated finally when I xposted it from/to Hexbear, because I’m 99% sure I checked right before then and it hadn’t, and all of yogthos’ posts I’ve checked still haven’t federated yet.
