That doesn’t really answer my question.

I’m curious about what significant changes in behavior we might see as a result of the upgrade. Are there improvements you were looking forward to? Is anything worse? Has our recurring federation problem been solved?

So far, I’ve noticed that my front page now appears with blank placeholders where the posts should be, and it takes several seconds for them to resolve into something readable. Seems like a step backward to me.

What changed since the version we had? The UI changelog doesn’t seem to be consistently maintained.

Thanks for sharing your findings. Did you try these things more than once, on different days, to make sure the triggers you think you found weren’t merely coincidences?

Our little instance often has federation problems. Sometimes they’re obvious, and sometimes more subtle. Sometimes it eventually catches up, but I suspect not always.

I don’t know what causes the problem, as I have no visibility into the systems. The person (people?) running the instance doesn’t communicate here, so I think you would have better luck investigating by signing up for shell access and asking in the bulletin board there.

For what it’s worth, my recent posts from here to lemmy.world communities seem to be getting through, as they have comments from lemmy.world users. Example 1, Example 2.

I ended up watching some new anime. Ranma ½ (2024) is kind of bonkers, in a fun way.

SDF is a quirky instance, isn’t it? It might go down once in a while, but at least to me, it feels more like a community system than some of the bigger instances. I love that it hasn’t made Cloudflare an observer and gatekeeper of our Lemmy activities.

I commented a couple hours ago on a lemmy.world post, and got a reply from another instance. Seemed to be working fine at that time.
