I have noticed this couple of times, I can’t reply to users from kbin.social. The loader keeps spinning, and if you refresh, the reply doesn’t show.

Is this a known issue, or just some random network / system load issue?

Solution (also posted as a comment below) Select ‘English’ as the language for the reply, otherwise it won’t post to any instance that doesn’t have ‘undetermined’ in the languages or to kbin.social account.

          @alejandro it’s a reply to a comment or post. If you never used third party apps and only official then that’s probably why you haven’t seen it before. All the lines you see are different levels of replies

            Actually I was referring to the background of the comment being colored yellow instead of white. I think it’s because it was recently posted when I saw it. It’s not yellow anymore, but another comment here posted more recently did appear yellow until after it passed the 10 minute mark.

            So I guess lemmy just highlights comments that are less than 10 minutes old. IIRC reddit had a feature like that for gold users, but it only did it after you already visited the comments section at least once.

      And I am replying from a completely different instance. Isn’t the Fediverse great? (Even though I also noticed that comments from others on my own posts do not show up in my own instance)

    I can’t seem to find kbin-communities on lemmy.world when the kbin has a capital-letter in it. Lemmy is universally using lowercase letters.

    I’m excited that kbin and lemmy are able to interact. Hopefully with some development effort, they’ll be more compatible. But our communities can’t interact perfectly quite yet.

      I think part of the issue with that is that the Magazines (kbin’s Community equivalent) are case sensitive for some reason.

      So theoretically there could be a kbin magazine called /m/TodayILearned as well as one named /m/todayilearned

    Figured out the issue, thanks to another post (which I have lost the link to, and can’t find), you have to select ‘English’ as the language for the reply, otherwise it won’t post to any instance that doesn’t have ‘undetermined’ in the languages or to kbin.social account.

    The “fediverse” wasn’t prepared for the sudden onslaught of users it is receiving from all instances these days… I’d say it will take a few weeks before everything stabilizes and all instances get an upgraded infrastructure.
    Let’s just be patient!

    I think some amount of federation broke a few hours ago. I haven’t been able to confirm because it seems inconsistent, but things are definitely slow to propagate to other instances and back to here. For example, I can see some of my comments have likes if I check on other instances, but when I look at my own profile, they still show 0.

    There currently seems to be an issue between Lemmy and kbin instances syncing up, I don’t know if we know what side is causing the issue at the moment
