Just in case anyone is using their account here to post to off-instance communities: those posts and comments seem to have a very high failure rate. There is a lot of activity and accounts on this instance. This is to raise awareness, not to pull people away or break up the lemmyverse. Quite the opposite really: there is a technical problem on this instance that might be preventing the lemmyverse from functioning as it should.
A lemmy developer more familiar would have to answer that. It seems inconsistent at best. How consistent it was designed to be might be up for debate, but the average users understanding should AT LEAST match that…
I can see a LOT of failed network connections from lemmy.world to my instance and results of comparing posts. That’s the data I have. :)
