Hopefully this is the right place for a support request, because this is where the sidebar in Main directed me.
I’ve been noticing intermittent issues with posting in Sopuli.xyz communities over the past couple of weeks. Occasionally posts will sit with zero votes, comments, etc. for hours, which is unusual, especially for the popular Memes community (even a joke that flops would usually have some downvotes). It seems like these posts may eventually show up for people after many hours, because they’ll suddenly start receiving votes and comments, but I can tell that something is off. Is there a known issue?
Example from today (1 person interacted with the post in 5+ hours):
Now that I think about it, I hope this post is visible.
Definitely there is a federation problem, despite Sopuli using the new version that should fix it. It may also be that the instances federating with Sopuli use a lower Lemmy version such as 0.18.5.
I have restarted Sopuli several times but I don’t know whether it fixes any federation problems.
I think it’s not a sopuli.xyz exclusive problem, and it’s not necessarily because of other instances being out of date. lemm.ee is on 0.19 so that isnt the issue in this case
