sh.it.works.sometimes

Hilarious. This comment doesn’t show on sh.itjust.works, which makes total sense. lemmy.world is responsible for sending it to other federated servers. Maybe kbin > lemmy right now?

Look. I’m not pointing fingers, but I know a thing or two and I can say with a high degree of certainty it is lemmy.world. :) Does the admin care? Do the users? Who knows. I just thought it was important information to have.

The silent failures are what actually miff me the most. Like to an uneducated user, everything is just working fine, but in reality they are stuck in lemmy.world.

It’s a known issue, but if you look at the issues, the reason for it is “could be lots of things.” Relying on a FOSS project to fix the problems of the community is kind of naive. If the admins don’t step up then I’ve no sympathy for them when the whole thing crumbles.

I don’t think it’s a version issue. It could be, but testing I’ve done says otherwise. There’s plenty of 0.17.4 instances that, despite other bugs, have no problem sending and receiving updates from other instances. I hope you’re right. I don’t run the instance so testing reveals mostly speculation.

I make fun of conspiracy theorists, but what the actual fuck? Makes me wonder how many real people I’ve actually interacted with on reddit? Maybe none.
