Also lemmy.world is extremely slow in pushing out messages to other instances, if at all. So leading the pack is not necessarily the best thing until you figure out scaling.

Yeah, they should really consider not accepting new users until that is figured out, honestly. There are plenty of servers out there that people can join at this point. Too much centralization in a decentralized system for my liking regardless of instance scaling.

Yeah, I've been missing a ton of comment replies from lemmy.world and it's frustrating. I am wondering if it's because they're still on 0.17.4 instead of 0.18.

Yeah I think that's the main issue. Hopefully 18.1 can be released soon so they can upgrade too.

The server has already been upgraded 3 times. I'm sure they'll upgrade again if they're seeing issues. They might not know if it's an external issue.

It is likely a lemmy version difference.

Is that what's happening when I try to reply and it just loads forever?

[–] BarelyTheramin 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That should have been fixed about a week ago, hopefully it hasn't happened to you lately!

Here's ruud's post explaining: https://lemmy.world/post/288652

Thanks for the link, unfortunately this is still affecting me. I'm gonna make an account on another instance for the time being

No I think that is just you telling lemmy.world the message which sometimes can get stuck. Only after the message was sent will other instances sync with lemmy.world if they are federated.
