  Looks like it received this one, but not the ones I mentioned that are in lemmy.world communities.

    From my experience, lemmy.word can take hours to federate to no matter the instance. I think they might be using some weird shit for “last mile”.

      From experience sh.itjust.works sometimes has this problem as well.

      They also have one thing in common: Cloudflare

      Perhaps it’s getting “protected” from federation considered a DoS.

      Hours wouldn’t raise my attention. I’m talking days.

      I think they might be using some weird shit for “last mile”.

      Given that lemmy.world uses Cloudflare, I wonder if their server is overloaded enough to sometimes exceed Cloudflare’s 100 second timeout, triggering http-524 errors during federation.

      Would a federation problem on lemmy.world block propagation to slrpnk.net? That would be a weirdly inefficient network design.

      That’s an example of what I’m seeing right now. It’s abnormal.

      Can’t wait to see what happens when/if they move to sublinks. How much worse can they get

        I think kbin.social showed us that overload can get much worse.
