Remember the video for "Don't come around here no more?" trippy shit!
oh weird, the mod seems to have left Lemmy completely!
Love Petty (and Traveling Wilburys) - never would’ve thought of him as alternative or indie, but I’m down for a Petty b-side!
Love Peck! So ridiculous, so good.

Got an update from lemmy.world that an issue has been resolved and federation should improve soon.
🚨 Federation Issues: Lemmy.ml (and maybe other instances) not getting new posts (Update: should be resolved soon)

Hi fam! Ren here on lemmy.ml - was wondering why we aren't getting users from the .ml instance and now I see why, posts are barely federating there. Just a few random posts. No idea why this is happening.
I've posted on .ml & .world's support pages about it, but personally it seems the best way to participate in the community is to be on an instance that has a live connection with .world or just be on lemmy.world
Not ideal for everyone, but wanted to let y'all know.

yeah, definitely see it with kbin, but I was chocking that up to "early days", but I assumed Lemmy-to-Lemmy federation was not an issue.
Lemmy.ml not federating posts with Lemmy.world or Mastodon, no issues posting via Lemmy.world or other instances (with screenshots)

See the screenshots.
Basically, people posting to [email protected] from lemmy.world or other instances all seem to work well, even going to Mastodon with no issues.
But lemmy.ml doesn't seem to be seeing many of the post and is slow to update things like pinned posts.
Nor does lemmy.ml posts to the community seem to be going to Mastodon.
Challenging to build a community on Lemmy when one of the big instances can't see many of the posts making an active community of over 1500 users seem dead.
