It seems like just recently, everything broke. Posts from some other instances (Lemmy 0.19 or kbin) aren’t showing up here reliably anymore, and then sometimes posts from a few days ago will suddenly show up. kbin.social has a banner talking about unusual “problems” without going into detail.

Does anyone know what’s going on or why? I’ve heard that Lemmy 0.19 has a problem where its outbound federation queue will sometimes die until it’s restarted manually, but that doesn’t seem like it should affect a lemmy.world <-> kbin interaction. Is it just Lemmy 0.19, or just lemmy.world, or are there multiple issues, or what gives?

    I believe kbin is updating the API, working on bug fixes and improvements and such, so the site is spotty right now. It said this would be happening for a few days, but that was a few days ago…

      Interesting, thank you… so maybe it’s just a combination of 0.19 breakage and kbin.social breakage coming unfortunately at the same time.

        Everything seems kinda fucked at the moment. Here’s the German community on kbin, fedia.io (mbin) and its original Lemmy instance:

        https://kbin.social/m/dach@feddit.de https://fedia.io/m/dach@feddit.de https://feddit.de/c/dach

        kbin.social really struggled with its issues affecting performance a lot which ernest seems to got a hold of by now. This didn’t happen on fedia.io (mbin) but the federation issues seem to persist with being almost 2 weeks behind now. Something is really off but it also seemed to all have kicked off around the same time? Kinda feels like Lemmy pushed something that affected both platforms differently. Either way, kinda makes the Fediverse somewhat unusable and pointless if stuff like this constantly happens.
