Issues federating with lemmy.world?

2y 7mon ago by midwest.social/u/Chastity2323 in main@midwest.social

If you go to c/homeimprovement@lemmy.world through midwest.social, it shows fewer subscribers in the sidebar than if you go straight to lemmy.world (https://midwest.social/c/homeimprovement@lemmy.world vs https://lemmy.world/c/homeimprovement).Also, there are posts that only show up when you look at c/homeimprovement@lemmy.world through the midwest.social instance, and are missing from the lemmy.world instance.

For example, this post: https://midwest.social/post/4242666is nonexistent if you look at the homepage on lemmy.world: https://lemmy.world/c/homeimprovement.However, you can see it from the homepage on midwest.social: https://midwest.social/c/homeimprovement@lemmy.world.

Interesting - I just checked again today and it's showing up on lemmy.world

I'm posting from lemmy.world now.

Unfortunately, I don't see your post at c/homeimprovement@lemmy.world nor at lemmy.ml/c/homeimprovement@lemmy.world.

I noticed a lot of posts missing when visiting via midwest.social versus the native instance. I can't remember if it was lemmy.world or something else, but it seems like this instance has federation problems.

@seahorse@midwest.social, you wanna maybe chime in here?

Many other instances are reporting this. We don't know why it happens unfortunately.
