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

    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.

    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.

        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.

            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.

              Have you considered creating an alt on https://lemmy.zip/ ? They are very reactive and their instance is solid.

              You can export your settings from your current instance to the new one in your account settings

    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…

    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

          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

              It addresses some of the federation issues some of the PD users are experiencing.

              For the communities themselves, it does not fix that indeed. I hope they can fix that at some point, but it’s been a month and it seems more complex than expected

                It addresses some of the federation issues some of the PD users are experiencing.

                It solves nothing, and feels like spam at this point. I mean, who do you think is not aware they can create an account somewhere else and shift their presence there?

      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.

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