What is happening on Programming.dev instance?

I started to notice that my posts get no interactions at all and that a lot of communities seem to be empty. At first I thought that it's just the effect of Lemme. ee shutting down, but after checking some of the communities from my current alt account I started to notice that .Dev does not pull the latest posts and does not federate my posts.

  • I had the same issue on my single user instance after a Lemmy update last week. It fixed by itself, but it took a few hours, like the entire night.

    Computational power or network bandwith was not an issue.

  • I don't think I have any federation issues (at least directly), but yeah I don't get replies probably because what I post is too niche. On 3 posts so far at least (~8 upvotes each) in 3 different communities.

    Well, looking back most anything I post is probably doomed this way no matter the instance, unless maybe it's something more general or eye-catching on a bigger community.
