I have a similar problem with three instances:

  • lemmy.world
  • lemmy.ml
  • szmer.info

I was able to post on all three. I haven't been able to post on lemmy.world for over two weeks, and recently I lost the ability to post on szmer.info.

I think there should be some kind of "handshake" between your instance and the instance of the recipient of your post. A notification that would tell you that synthing has failed.

yeah that would be perfect, one message not working is a little annoying but writing several in different threads then later realising none went through is really disheartening.

maybe they could even have an initial handshake when you open the message writing box, like 'your post might not sync at this time'

strange, i have noticed any issues with lemmy.world, or lemmy.ml.

Could you send a test comment/post to one of these communities?

No trace of your comment. Looks like we are all affected by this bug.

[–] infinitevalence 1 points 1 year ago

Strange, guess we will see. Its on my profile so its not lost just not synced yet I guess.

well now I cant hit lemmy.world at all, just keeps erroring out, so maybe they are working on things.
