What happend to lemmy.ml? EDIT: Works with ipv6 disabled

Sören@iusearchlinux.fyi to Technology@beehaw.org – 26 points –

It seems like they are down for a longer time now. How will they recover? Does longer down mean they will have to do more catching up with other instances? Can I get updates somewhere?

Lemmy.ml did a server migration which was posted about 8 hours ago which was pinned on lemmy.ml meta. It appears in the comments that some users have experienced a 502 error, which was related to “iCloud’s Private Relay”. They were able to bypass the issue using a VPN, although I haven't had any issues accessing lemmy.ml on my pc. I also read something about AWS us-east-1 being down, so it could also be related to that.

@Sleeping I still wanted to follow a community there from my instance and I could not.

@soeren

yeah our instance is having problems too with lemmy.ml communities

Following communities could be another issue entirely, sometimes you have to subscribe then unsubscribe multiple times in order to get it to work.

@Sleeping I can't subscribe in the 1st place. Guess I'll just have to note down the community and try subscribing tomorrow again as it's late around here 😁

Oh! Hmm, I've never run into that issue before. Although I have noticed on some instances it works faster and more reliable than others.

@Sleeping I am on Friendica. It shows like this.

I've never used Friendica, so I'm honestly not sure. Maybe this could be related to the ipv6 issue that the instance hoster would need to fix.
