Hey everyone, update on https://programming.dev/post/4613085

We did some changes in the database and it seems like outbound federation is working again. If you run into any more problems with it let us know.

Im pinning this post for around a day to let everyone know since we had the last post pinned for a bit

Any posts or comments made while it was broken still wont be federated but new ones should be. The instance essentially marked all other instances as dead which meant it thought it didn’t have to send things to them

      Looks like that post was made when federation was broken (there was a small window 14 days ago when it went down again) so itll still have issues with federating comments. Recent posts and comments in the community seem to still be fine

        My reply from my programming.dev account to the person on Lemmy.world was made yesterday. It still hasn’t propagated.

        I had to reply using my Lemmy.world account. That reply federated to programming.dev. It looks like it’s going in one direction only?

          yeah federation broke one way only when it was broken. Replies on broken posts from here wont propagate no matter when its done
