    𝚝𝚛𝚔 and I have been making a post everyday since Brisbot stopped working.

    Makes me wonder if you are not seeing the post, is because of the different Lemmy versions. Because I have noticed engagement across the local aussie.zone has been a bit low, including the main Australia community.

    I just thought it was a natural exodus of users.

      Unfortunately they’re not seeing the post. They won’t see your comment either for the same reason. You can see what they’re seeing here. (Assuming your client doesn’t automatically take you to your instance’s version of that link.)

      It’s incredibly frustrating. My whole Lemmy experience has been excruciatingly less valuable than normal these past few weeks, because most of the time nobody will ever see my comments, and I don’t always know when that will be…

        I think for future aussie.zone needs some kind of upgrade policy where we try to follow other larger instances with updates. Though with how long 0.19 has been out I’m surprised none of these other instances have upgraded. Hopefully Lemmy releases a bugfix soon, but this likely won’t be the last time this happens

          I’m assuming the larger instances still haven’t upgraded because they had the benefit of early adopters noticing the problem 0.19 creates with federation, and didn’t want to create that problem for their users.

          Not a bad idea. Old mate Loinclothdan does a great job of keeping things running but unfortunately being on top of things has backfired a little this time around :(

        Oh, that’s frustrating.

        Is there a fix on the horizon?

          Unfortunately I have absolutely no idea. When the problem first started I figured it’d be a couple of days. But it’s now been over 3 weeks.

            Concerning. This is the sort of major issue that kills a social media site. Nothing is more disheartening than putting in the effort to generate content and having no response.

              It’s like being shadowbanned back on the alien site. Only instead of being caused by admin ineptitude (or being the consequence of your own actions), it’s caused by developer error.

              Indeed, actually had no idea.

              But all goods chief, we can keep the party going.

      I think to get that particular bot running again, whoever’s running it needs to upgrade the Lemmy client dependency

        Just spent some time getting Dale working properly again, looks like there’s a little more to it than updating the dependency, see my comment in the Weekly Random Thread post in [email protected]

      For what it’s worth, the replies just now popped on to my instance. That explains the silence on aussie.zone!

    Hopefully now that we’ve updated you should be able to see this comment, and any future posts?
