• Yeah, I did a shit job of documenting this properly and should have taken better screenshots+updated the main post when I realized how useless all the ones I took were, especially before/when pinging, but there was a legit federation issue there for a while and it still existed when I made that comment, but does seem to have resolved since.

    Sorry, I’ll do a better job in the future. Thanks for that link, it should be helpful.

      No worries. I suppose such temporary federation problems happen occasionally, but you wouldn’t notice if you only browse a single instance. Do you know if any of the involved instances was down or unreachable around that time? Then it would be normal that federation gets paused for a time while waiting for the instance to come online.

      • I was able to xpost via Hexbear throughout, and could then see my posts from/to hexbear to xpost elsewhere. I didn’t check whether federation was working or not from anywhere else.

        Both have had some blips recently that I’ve hit, but I was noticing more issues with Hexbear downtime than Lemmygrad.
