Federation broken with Aussie.zone

aussie.zone Federation with <0.19.1 Instances - Aussie Zone

Usually I post to slrpnk.net [http://slrpnk.net] and they are currently on 0.18.5. None of my posts/comments (2 posts, 1 comment) are federating. Just letting you know if anyone here is posting to non-updated instances, it’s possible they aren’t going through. Yet completely possible they are. Who k...

I've made an account here because I can't contact you through my normal @[email protected] account. Example test showing broken fed.

  • We're aware of this issue, and it's not just with aussie.zone. It is related to the version disparity. The fastest way to fix it from our end would be to upgrade to the latest version in hopes that it would solve the federation issue, but that means breaking federation with instances that don't have the latest installed. It also means accepting whatever new bugs come with the new version, of which broken federation should be seen as a dead coal canary.

    We plan to wait until the bugs in the new version are worked out. To restore interoperability with SLRPNK, aussie.zone will need to downgrade to the previous version. I apologize for the inconvenience. In the meantime, you can participate here with a SLRPNK account -- Welcome!
