I do not believe 0.18 itself is the cause of the problem. I highly suspect the problem is with federation logic of how peer servers retry and connect to each other. Multiple servers going down in a short period to upgrade to 0.18 could be causing lemmy.ml to internally swarm within the outbound code or some other resource problem.
Lemmy.ml has hundreds of peer instances to distribute comments to.
Other instances could be having cascading problems if they have a lot of outbound messages to distribute.
Hi, this topic is better suited to the lemmy.ml/c/support community. It does not affect Beehaw.
Do you think I’m opening a bug about Beehaw or something?
This is a technology topic. People discuss when Facebook and Reddit and Twitter have major outages.
That’s like suggesting calling your phone provider when your phone doesn’t work.
