Federation is broken again - in a slightly different, more subtle way this time (lemmy.sdf.org)

I created this post on [email protected]: if you go directly to the instance, it shows twice as many comments, and a lot more upvotes than on the SDF view.

That sounds like there are other instances with messed up federation

Well, it looks like the SDF instance is catching up: suddenly a whole bunch of comments, and all the upvotes from the lemmy.ml instance now show up in the SDF view. Too many upvotes in fact ๐Ÿ™‚ I guess the downvotes are still getting processed.

Maybe this is all sorting itself out, whatever the bottleneck was...

Oh and by the way, I wasn't implying that SDF is responsible for this. It was just a general comment on the state of federation in Lemmy, which - the more I look at it - seems really quite fragile.

Hm. Some views from other Lemmy instances...

Seems... OK...? Apart from lemmy.world (but that's running a previous release of Lemmy).

No replies or anything because nobody subscribed to mechkeyboards from hachyderm.io. I just subscribed, though :)

I see exact same amount of comments from my instance as from lemmy.ml, so I'd guess it's probably something specific to sdf.org. Maybe federation queue?

Interesting, I've seen it on other instances too
