I’ve been seeing the exact same posts, in the same order, with almost no change in up/downvotes. It’s been like this for at least 6 hours.
Did everyone agree to take an internet break and not tell me or is something not working correctly?

Is it just fedia.io or is this happening to other mbin instances too? seems like this happens every now and then, and i also find posts from fedia aren’t appearing on lemmy instances until there is server admin intervention of some sort, then it all updates at the same time. maybe the server admin isn’t available due to the jewish new year holiday?
Per @jerry there’s some bug in federation where an incoming message is malformed or something and it causes the message queue to silently freeze. He just has to restart it and things start moving again. Unfortunately it sounds like the mbin devs haven’t got it figured out yet so we deal with the problem now and then.
My apologies - I thought I had the problem fixed, but clearly not. It’s working again, and I will get back to fixing the alerting and auto-error correcting tomorrow.
Thank you for your work!
No worries man. I appreciate you taking the time and expense running the instance.
My apologies - I was off doing other things today as I thought this problem had been fixed. Things are almost complete with catching up now and I’ll be working on the problem more tomorrow.
