    Lemmy has been feeling pretty empty the past couple of days. That just really goes to show how important federation really is.

      Yes and no, if you have enough users you do not need federation for a server to not feel empty. But overall many servers do not have that many users, so federation with larger ones is essential.

    I would comment on this but since federation is broken…this won’t be seen until the instance admin restarts Lemmy and federation works once again.

      Federation seems to be working fine from where I stand?

      Edit:

      Edit 2:

      Even the edit federated out to your instance fine…

        I think it works for a while after restart of the server, and then stops working. Yesterday I was making comments that didn’t federate until 12 hours later when I assume the instance admin restarted the server.

          My instance has been uo for over 3 days since 0.19.1 update with no issues - very little load though

    I’d say the bug seems to be slightly different from my observations, in that things are leaky rather than broken. Could be wrong though.

    Edit: previously post was mobile keyboard mince meat:
