Test posting from https://daring.lemmy.fan running 0.19.0-rc.1 to check federation.
Per https://phiresky.github.io/lemmy-federation-state/site?domain=daring.lemmy.fan ~~it still appears that federation is lagging with 0.19.0-rc.1~~ Looks like federation is indeed working.
It shows up on my instance.
I can confirm that similar things have happened to me recently as a user in lemmy.ml. Don’t know if was a symptom of the beta testing or not though, or whether things are fine now.
It happened multiple times during the 0.19.0 testing phase where federation will break until a new update was being tested. Unfortunately it seems the bug has persisted into final release.
Are the devs aware or have you reported it somewhere? It’s a rather important bug and worth testing to be sure.
I suppose they should notice this post here?
The devs are aware and discussing it here (thanks, it seems, to your post!): https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4288
I've noticed a similar thing happening. I seem to only be visible to other lemmy.ml users.
