Recently, I’ve noticed federated threads/comments/votes were lagging behind, and it turns out kbin.earth was being spammed (hundreds in a minute, leading to a couple thousand queued messages after only half an hour) by a Lemmy server with the same exact activity pub message. After blocking the server (feddit.de), federation should now work correctly. If the admins of the server ever fix the issue, I’ll be glad to unblock it.

Edit: turns out, this was probably actually a kbin issue, but at least it’s fixed the issues temporarily.

    Hello,

    I just wanted to let you know that I have lifted your community ban for !world@lemmy.world now.

    I originally expected to be lifting the entire set of bans once the underlying kbin issue was addressed, but unfortunately that never happened. Since you were the only affected kbin user that wasn’t on kbin.social you were more affected by this than the rest, as kbin.social has been dead for a while now.

    I apologize that this wasn’t done sooner, especially considering that kbin.earth migrated to mbin a few months ago already.

      All good, I’m mostly a lurker anyway.

      Thanks for following up though! Much appreciated.
