Problem with !data_structures

2 years ago by lysdexic to c/meta

Since the last update, it's not possible to get the !data_structures@programming.dev community page to even load. Can anyone take a look at the problem?

Community table currently has issues. Should be fixed once theres time to do more database maintenance again but for now the posts can be accessed in the main feeds

My whole feed has been hosed for a couple of weeks. I'm seeing zero posts in about half my subbed communities and scant few posts even in the ones that do get them. I'm also not seeing all the comments or votes. I assume this is being worked on, but Lemmy might as well be dead for me. I can go 9 hours without a new post anywhere.

I just had a look at https://programming.dev/?dataType=Post&listingType=All&sort=New , everything seems to be working fine.

Comment made a minute ago on LW:

Do you have any example of a community not federating property?

Here is !linux@lemmy.world through lemmy.world.

Here it is through PD:

lemmynsfw is the same: 12 days since a post.

Here is a link of me asking in comments if I was missing something and someone confirming I was: https://programming.dev/post/20400237/12746874

It's the same on desktop so I don't think it's a phone/cache issue.

Interesting, it seems to be community dependant

Asklemmy is up to date:

It's super aggravating. Lemmy is pretty much my only social outlet. I've had to go back to Discord.

But hey, it's free/no ads. I'll probably soon be in a position (after several months out of work) to donate, but until I do I guess I can't exactly complain.

I filed a bug report for this https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/5117

there's something else to the issue though, because I see other communities with underscores still working

this feels like more db index corruption that already existed for users previously, unlikely to be an issue in lemmy itself

I just checked the status of communities such as !data_structures@programming.dev.

They are still fucked.

I understand not everyone can be a pro or spare time from their personal life to fix problems they barely had time to create to begin with.

But the truth of the matter is that programming.dev is proving itself to be unusable.

Just to think that not so long ago Lemmy was being portrayed as a Reddit alternative.

There was some maintenance to try to fix things but things ended up not being resolved so had to be rolled back and there should be another maintenance period in the future again

Hi there! Like many others, I’m wondering where this issue is at?

From the Matrix channel, @snowe@programming.dev has been sick for the last few days.

As mentioned elsewhere, you could consider opening an alt on Lemmy.zip

That doesn’t solve communities being inaccessible though, does it?

Hello,

As suggested elsewhere in the thread, you might consider opening an alt on Lemmy.zip, it's a stable and well managed instance.

Exporting and importing settings takes a few clicks.

Why lemmy.zip?

It looks like many communities are still down following the last update.

Does anyone have any update on this issue? I'd love to continue using Lemmy but I won't be able to do so if it's unusable.

It's a programming.dev-specific problem.

A bit of federation funkiness (!linuxmemes@lemmy.world: last post is a month or so ago?)
and a bit of local splunkiness (!programmer_humor@programming.dev is only directly usable from other instances rn iirc)

but I believe in our volunteerist leaders. Even so...

This issue still persists.

Communities have been broken for over a month. This is quite bad.

Some discussion is happening on the Matrix chat, but indeed it's not ideal.

Have you considered Lemmy.zip as an alternative ?

I just reached out to the admins on their Matrix chat, to see if they would consider recommending people to move their communities to other instances

I am well aware, I suggested you to move your community to another instance a few weeks ago.

How fitting for the discard operator _.

C# discards, but IIRC it is in some other languages too

What do you mean "probably was closed"?

I thought it had been closed by the mods or admins.

Seems like it's a different type of issues

I'm the mod and the guy who created the community, so I dare say that was not the case.
