We’re aware of ongoing federation issues for activities being sent to us by lemmy.ml.

We’re currently working on the issue, but we don’t have an ETA right now.

Cloudflare is reporting 520 - Origin Error when lemmy.ml is trying to send us activities, but the requests don’t seem to properly arrive on our proxy server. This is working fine for federation with all other instances so far, but we have seen a few more requests not related to activity sending that seem to occasionally report the same error.

Right now we’re about 1.25 days behind lemmy.ml.

You can still manually resolve posts in lemmy.ml communities or comments by lemmy.ml users in our communities to make them show up here without waiting for federation, but this obviously is not something that will replace regular federation.

We’ll update this post when there is any new information available.

      Unfortunately not entirely true. They have the largest Linux Community. To be precise, the big one.

      ProgrammerHumor is there as well. The Open Source and Privacy communties are very bigs as well there. Completely dwaring their .world counterpart.

      I’m not a fan of .ml either but you can’t deny that they have this 3 parts (which very much represent the ideals behind lemmy) covered very well.

    Ah, I just today in the morning blocked Lemmy.ml. Seems to have been interesting timing :)

        No one said it was a global variable. You can hardly blame the user for poor documentation.

        In which case, thank you.

    Could it be an issue/compatibility with lemmy.ml running Lemmy v0.19.7 ?

      I don’t believe it is.

      There weren’t any network related changes from 0.19.6 to 0.19.7 and we haven’t seen this behavior with any of the 0.19.6 instances yet.

      The requests are visible with details (domain, path, headers) in Cloudflare, but they’re not showing on our proxy server logs at all.

        I’ve read enough posts over at /r/sysadmin, it is always DNS.

    Reactivated The Great Firewall on them after their role in election interference was complete?
