I bought a pretty basic safety razor from maggard about 10 years ago and still love it. The biggest thing to learn and invest in is what blades and lather you like. I started off buying a blade sampler pack from them and settled on astra blades. i’ll change up my lather/soap sometimes. Also a nice brush is good to have.

ah HA! https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2657

Yea the language setting makes absolutely no sense to me. As for the messaging between mastadon and here: doesn’t work for me either. Maybe lemmy doesn’t correctly parse DMs from other services? It’s good at nesting messages but DMs may be something it doesn’t quite get yet. Or maybe it’s straight broken 🙃

So comments like https://lemmy.world/comment/9174951 seem to be federated and showing up. It might be slow to federate today as well. But yea, let’s see how the next few days go after this update.

Can you throw an example at me? I see your comments on other instances.

I can try the newest update soon, but it only updates how pictrs (the photo hosting service we use) stores photos in the database. If we’re having issues now, my first thought would be backed up federation or high usage.

Can you give me an example?

Could it be the language setting? https://lemmy.world/post/1617579

I was trying to see if some setting may prevent it but didn’t see anything. Also spent some time looking at GitHub issues as well but nothing caught my eye. Not sure where to go about testing this.

Hmmm not sure about the app. Does it work in browser?

Maybe a cache thing? I’m seeing 2 comments on your post and both comments here.

Sorry to fill your post with test comments and upvotes, but I THINK federation seems to be working better? Testing from this post here: https://lemmy.world/post/13954037?scrollToComments=true

Test comment from my main account on lemmy.radio to test outgoing federation.

I plan on taking tonight and this weekend to update us to 0.19.3. I just upgraded us to 0.19.1 which fixes a bug with federating with newer instances. Hope this helps. The upcoming updates may take the site down for a few hours as it has major database and image hosting changes.

Let me know if it seems better after the 0.19.1 update.

AFAIK we’re on the same database version even though the backend is behind.

Since I started running this instance, I feel like this has always been an issue. I can see federation happening in the logs, and I’ve only “banned” a few servers. We are still a small version behind, so maybe that is the issue? But I don’t believe it is. There was another surge lately in lemmy users and posts, and in the past, that always seemed to kick off issues like this. Lemmy is also still very beta-ish.

I’ll keep watching the logs and hopefully this week, I’ll get us on the newest version. The last few have been very time consuming to update.

I’d also suggest trying a crypto currency community for help. This is amateur radio and hiking ;)

I’ll have to look into that. I’m not sure lemmy offers that. But I can always keep this community up and just make it read only so that your post is always visible. This was actually the first community I made on this server just to test that creation worked!

Email notifications, password resets, and applications were broken by the update. Fixed it this evening 👍

Oh no

I plan on activating all 4 days. I’ll look to the PNW!
