    I’ve been seeing occasional odd behaviour on the server that seems to be database maintenance related. It happens sporadically throughout the day, with no pattern that I can see. When it happens, I’ve noticed a few brief periods of errors browsing the site. Its possible your bot has been unlucky and attempted to post during one of these times.

    I’m hoping lemmy 0.18.1 will resolve this, I know there has been a lot of effort put into optimising database queries etc. If it doesn’t, I’ll dig into it further and raise a github issue with the lemmy devs.

      For some reason it didn’t even try to post, so it definitely wasn’t an error from the server. It has been triggered to make the post at the right time for every single test post I have done, which is why I think there might be something specific about midnight that is causing some issues.

        Oh ok no worries. FWIW I just witnessed the server side issue in the last 5 minutes. Received error pages etc.
