Thanks to a comment by @LargeHardonCollider@lemmy.world , I checked and saw that ‘Federation debugging’ mode was enabled. I had enabled that when the server just started (less than 3 weeks ago) and I had an issue with federation.
I thought I had switched that off again, but apparently not. This mode causes the federation to be done in the foreground, so your ‘Post’ or ‘Comment’ action will wait for that to finish…
This solves the most annoying issue, and makes the site way more useable. There are many other issues, but we’ll get there.
thanks!
It seems to be okay now but I lost a couple of lengthy replies earlier
Thank you Based Ruud
Thanks for the fix ! I also thought it was a general lemmy issue and not a lemmy.world one.
Edit : I seem to still have the “wheel keeps spinning, have to reload to see my comment posted” issue, is that the one you’re talking about here ? But tbf it was an issue I even already had on Reddit (mobile web) so I can’t be mad 😅
Sweet thank you
Thanks for the update!
Appreciate your work as always.
Amazing! Thanks for all your hard work.
I think the “federation debugging” should be disabled by default
Test
Seems okay accessed from South East Asia… thx @ruud@lemmy.world !
Cool! I’ve noticed a significant improvement this morning!
Yes things seem a lot snappier!
I found an odd bug.
I tried creating a comment on a pc browser here:
https://lemmy.world/post/188235?scrollToComments=true
And had the endless circle.
Used Jerboa on android and it gave an error: “that language is not allowed”. So I went back to the browser and chose english and it worked.
I can post on other posts, though.
That happens when replying to people on instances with strict languages rules (e.g. Kbin)
