I have noticed this couple of times, I can't reply to users from kbin.social. The loader keeps spinning, and if you refresh, the reply doesn't show.

Is this a known issue, or just some random network / system load issue?

Solution (also posted as a comment below) Select ‘English’ as the language for the reply, otherwise it won’t post to any instance that doesn’t have ‘undetermined’ in the languages or to kbin.social account.

I am reading this from kbin.social if you want to test things some more.

[-] burgersc12@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 year ago

Yeah, i think all is fine? Can see both of you from here

Why is your comment highlighted yellow for me? (via lemmy.world web ui)

[-] jcb2016_@mastodon.social 1 points 1 year ago

@alejandro it's a reply to a comment or post. If you never used third party apps and only official then that's probably why you haven't seen it before. All the lines you see are different levels of replies

[-] alejandro@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Actually I was referring to the background of the comment being colored yellow instead of white. I think it's because it was recently posted when I saw it. It's not yellow anymore, but another comment here posted more recently did appear yellow until after it passed the 10 minute mark.

So I guess lemmy just highlights comments that are less than 10 minutes old. IIRC reddit had a feature like that for gold users, but it only did it after you already visited the comments section at least once.

@alejandro Got it you are probably referring to reddit gold were you revisit a post and all the new comments are blue.

And I am replying from a completely different instance. Isn't the Fediverse great? (Even though I also noticed that comments from others on my own posts do not show up in my own instance)

I can't seem to find kbin-communities on lemmy.world when the kbin has a capital-letter in it. Lemmy is universally using lowercase letters.

I'm excited that kbin and lemmy are able to interact. Hopefully with some development effort, they'll be more compatible. But our communities can't interact perfectly quite yet.

Yea kbin currently has a couple case sensitive bugs when it comes to usernames and magazine names 😅

[-] Kayzels@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Just letting you know that you double posted

[-] lohrun@fediverse.boo 1 points 1 year ago

[-] Lilkev@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I think part of the issue with that is that the Magazines (kbin's Community equivalent) are case sensitive for some reason.

So theoretically there could be a kbin magazine called /m/TodayILearned as well as one named /m/todayilearned

[-] slimerancher@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Figured out the issue, thanks to another post (which I have lost the link to, and can't find), you have to select 'English' as the language for the reply, otherwise it won't post to any instance that doesn't have 'undetermined' in the languages or to kbin.social account.

[-] KnittingTrekker@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

The "fediverse" wasn't prepared for the sudden onslaught of users it is receiving from all instances these days... I'd say it will take a few weeks before everything stabilizes and all instances get an upgraded infrastructure.
Let's just be patient!

[-] sab@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

The communication would only be between the two servers involved - the fediverse as such is fine. But the sites of the "threadiverse" are indeed a bit overloaded. ;)

[-] lohrun@fediverse.boo 1 points 1 year ago

There currently seems to be an issue between Lemmy and kbin instances syncing up, I don’t know if we know what side is causing the issue at the moment

[-] atocci@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I think some amount of federation broke a few hours ago. I haven't been able to confirm because it seems inconsistent, but things are definitely slow to propagate to other instances and back to here. For example, I can see some of my comments have likes if I check on other instances, but when I look at my own profile, they still show 0.

[-] LegendofDragoon@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Federation want working at all yesterday, there's probably still some hiccups in the system. Ernest is working really hard though so hopefully everything will be sorted out sooner rather than later!

[-] levochemist@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

It took like 20 minutes to populate but my response eventually showed up to a lemmy user from kbin.

[-] AboveAverageJoe@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I tried to respond to effingjoe's post and I get the same loader spinning.

[-] FermatsLastAccount@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

I can see your test comment from kvin.social.

[-] AboveAverageJoe@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

correction, I got the same spinning loader, but when I refreshed, I can see my response to @burgersc12@sh.itjust.works

[-] mihnt@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

Can see that you have 3 comments here. 1 replying to yourself, your original comment, and 1 replying to @effingjoe

[-] AboveAverageJoe@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks. Since the wheel never stops spinning, you can’t see that the comment went through. I’m sure it will be sorted out. So far, this place has done an admirable job dealing with all of us refugees fleeing from Reddit.

[-] AboveAverageJoe@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

And, by the way, great username.
