Federation is broken.

It's been broken for days - and that's not to say for months, because I charitably include the few hours it worked again lately for some reason.

I don't know if other instances are that thoroughly broken, because the rest of Lemmy seems to be chugging along just fine. It's just us poor SDF user suckers.

And no-one gives a rat's ass.

Truly pathetic...

    I see the UI has been updated to version 0.19.2, while the backend is still 0.19.1-rc2. Perhaps the backend update is still in progress. Could be that federation is working again simply because they restarted the backend service.

    Hopefully the backend update to 0.19.2 is coming and will be more stable.

    I also noticed that the web UI is kind of messed up now. None of the button icons display for me, like for upvote, downvote, reply, or notifications, so it's a little hard to navigate.

      Oh damn, I didn't even notice that.
      It seems the browser cache is saving me for now:

      Show

      Edit: Hmmm, interesting. The buttons are there, but they only show up briefly after refreshing.

      Edit 2: The page with icons returns

      It isn't empty if you check the page source, there's SVG icons.
      Example:

      If I remember rightly, the backend update takes a long time as the database needs to do a particularly slow schema update. https://old.lemmy.sdf.org seems to still be ok.

      I got a reply from membership@sdf.org:

      It looks like the site is now running 0.19.2.  Can you confirm you still are unable to use it?

      I think it's working now.

      At the bottom of the web UI it says: BE: 0.19.2

      So I guess the upgrade is complete?
