Comment on Recommend that new users join geographically local instances
tofu@lemmy.nocturnal.garden 1 month agoDue to the rate of federation being limited by latency, instances have actually been re-locating to mostly Europe, so they can more easily keep up with each other.
Any examples for that? Latency causing instances not being able to keep up with federation is new to me.

Thanks! Didn’t know Lemmy doesn’t have something like an ingress queue

That issue being two years, I’m not sure what the current state of things is.
But servers did move towards EU to combat the problem, and haven’t moved back for what I know.

Issue was fixed several months ago, but yeah it was a problem for quite a while
