My single user instance at @lohang@social.alochana.net continues to receive posts from mastodon.social. But mastodon.social has stopped receiving my posts from there. What can I do to fix it?
🤔
This is frustrating. @lohang@social.alochana.net doesn't receive posts from here either.
@lohang @lohang There is no way to investigate into problems like this unless you have access to both servers or get the support from server admins. The only time I heard from mastodon.social admins was when they silenced me for defending RMS. That too was after I noticed that I've been censored from public search results without any warning or comment.
In any case, mastodon.social is too big to be bothered about individual users.
On the other hand, it is important to be able to federate with mastodon.social because many users I interact with are still on that site.
@lohang @lohang I am concerned about being defederated from other instances too. There is no way to know it unless I notice that posts from certain people no longer appear here.
If you are on a large, "powerful" instance many people will notice such a situation and the admins will look into it. Unfortunately, that is a good reason to be on a larger instance.
@lohang@social.alochana.net If it helps, I received all the messages in this thread.
Last time I checked, Epicyon's AP implementation seemed simpler than others. Maybe recent versions of Mastodon stopped federating with implementations that lack some particular feature?
That said, given that you get along with everybody in the Fediverse, I wouldn't rule out the possibility of having been found guilty by association by some idiot.
@josemanuel @lohang @lohang Thanks very much for checking this! Good to know that other mastodon instances still see my posts.
I realize patience is the key to resolve issues like these.
