Star wars meme: Mon Mothma (Mastodon) stands before 5 other men/admirals (Writefreely, Lemmy, Peertube, Pixelfed, Friendica). She says: "The emperor has made a critical error and the time for our attack has come."

I actually did when I created the post. (See the list of crossposts.)

But thanks for reminding people and pointing out other interesting comms.

Must be a federation problem, because I don't see the cross post link, nor the post in the community (I'm a mod) when looking through lemmy.world. Unfortunate. I wonder what would happen if someone reported a post or comment I can't even see.

Ed: ok it got fixed. I searched for the post url and that refreshed it.

Well, that's kind of a wild bug there. 🤷

I just edited the crosspost in hope that it would refederate, but I don't think it worked as expected. Sorry.

I searched for the post url on my instance. One of our actions fixed it, it shows up now.

Not your fault, and thanks.

Awesome! Somehow, I love the quirkiness of federated platforms. Kind of gives it character. 😆

[–] WhoRoger 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It just stresses me out hah. Last week I needed something from people on 2 other instances and my post wouldn't show up for them, except for a short window when our server was upgraded. Then everyone was like "I can see your post!" for an hour or so and then poof gone again.

If you're up to playing, would you try deleting the swmemes post and reposting again? I wanna see what happens and if it works, we'll at least have a new meme other than fucking beans...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sure! I just deleted it on my end. Post still seems to be on lemmy.world. I'll wait a little and see if the deletion gets federated and then repost.

[–] WhoRoger 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Man this is bollocks. Ok I deleted it as mod, try to crosspost again?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Done. Seems like it worked fine. I can see it on lemmy.world.

Yay we fixed the world! Everything gonna be perfect now!
