I don’t see my comments or DMs (wrote a DM to a second account) on any other instance, is there a problem with outgoing traffic?

    @SDF Same here!. It loosk like lemmy.sdf.org does not do outgoing federation to certain instances. In my case it stopped federating posts, comments and votes to lemmy.wtf. I found the following issue on github which explains how outgoing federation will stop, when another instance is considered dead and not marked alive again due to a scheduled task not running:

        Imho the current situation is really bad, because

        1. It usually takes quite a while until you notice that you have been isolated
        2. It makes your account on lemmy.sdf.org pretty much useless, unless you are only posting to local communities.

                Is this a bug related to updating to 0.19? I just noticed they did that and my account on the app immediately stopped working.

                  Acttually the issue with outbound federation not properly working is from before they upgraded to 0.19.0-rc4, but 0.19.X made it even worse, because it breaks various clients, e. g. Jerboa, due to some breaking API changes it introduces.

                  Honestly, this unannounced upgrade to 0.19.X is quite a kick in the butt.

                    Also broke the inbox on desktop, was showing empty for me even though it shows the notifications. I had to manually go to the thread to see this message (lucky I keep tabs open).

                    I agree that this unannounced upgrade is quite the shock to the system and also lemmy 0.19 hasn’t even officially dropped yet so it seems kind of strange to update to it now.
