I am not 100% sure. Fedia.io is running on a beast of a server, and so long as it’s working correctly, it should be able to deliver it instantly. But that doesn’t mean that the receiving servers are able to consume and render them that fast.
there isn't an inteval per se - I don't yet know why it's not immediate. It's possible that the delay is on the receiving side - the server that fedia.io is quite substantial and unless there is some sort of bug, the processing should happen immediately.
Outbound federation was indeed broken. I fixed it, but there was a huge backlog the server had to work through, which took about 12 hours to complete. I just checked and everything appears to be working ok. I am going to create some automation that will detect and alert on this (or other issues) happening in the future.
Not entirely. It looks like the rabbit issue was only impacting one of the queues (“deliver”), though I would have expected that to impact things like microblog too. All I can say with clarity is that the instance was operating in a very unhealthy state.
The queue appears like it’ll take several hours to flush, but it’s working.
Do you know whether there are any users on kbin.melroy.org that subscribe to your magazine? If not, that will explain why your post did not show up until you searched for it.
I did end up disabling registration due to spam. I can either open them up at a time you’re free to try again or I can manually create an account for you.
It's a known issue - I have been working with @melroy for a while now to resolve. I think we now understand what is happening under the hood, but not yet why it is happening.
