As you may have read in other threads, this version of Lemmy (0.19.1) seems to have bugs in outgoing federation on some instances.

As a temporary fix, we have added a scheduled restart of Lemmy every hour. It only takes a few seconds to restart, and the big advantage is that your comments and posts are only delayed up to 1 hour before they federate to other instances. You probably wont notice the restart even.

This will be in effect until a bug fix arrives from Lemmy developers, probably after new years sometime.

Thanks for reading and merry x-mas to everyone. :)

    For what it’s worth, I set up a cronjob on my instance to restart just the lemmy container every 6 hours. It looks like 0 */6 * * * docker container restart lemmy-lemmy-1. Federation has been pretty good so far, but it has only been in practice for less than a day.
