Sudden decrease in votes on [email protected] after 0.19 upgrade

cross-posted from: https://lemm.ee/post/18778701

> This is the chart of the votes for the latest posts on [email protected]. > > This may be just a coincidence, but I find a bit weird that the votes went down to almost zero exactly when lemm.ee[^1] and feddit.de[^2] upgraded to v0.19. > > [^1]: the instance from where I'm posting > [^2]: the community instance

EDIT: From a comment by @[email protected] in the original post:

> I’m getting a LemmyAPIException when I try to upvote since yesterday. Now I notice I’m getting the same error when I try to post from the app.

EDIT-2: Another comment by @[email protected]:

> the question then becomes when the last post was made to apocalyptic art. From my quick glance it was 4 days ago on the lemmy.ml mirror, which seems behind the most recent posts on the actual community. Lemmy.ml is on the newest version. > > So my guess is that there’s some general federation issue, possibly on the feddit.de end, which is causing some things to get dropped.

This is the chart of the votes for the latest posts on [email protected].

This may be just a coincidence, but I find a bit weird that the votes went down to almost zero exactly when lemm.ee[^1] and feddit.de[^2] upgraded to v0.19.

(low-res) video: SQUID Device from Strange Days - YouTube

> This is the actual hero prop used in the movie. The 'face plate' was interchangeable to make it look like several different units throughout the film. I made this video just to show that it still functions and what the prop actually does when turned on. (Which isn't much, some LEDs come on and the disc inside spins up...)

1-bit CPU for ‘super low-performance computer’ launched – sells out promptly
  • AFAIK, they are used as relays.

    From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-bit_computing#1-bit

    Computers and microcomputers may also be used, but they tend to overcomplicate the task and often require highly trained personnel to develop and maintain the system. A simpler device, designed to operate on inputs and outputs one-at-a-time and configured to resemble a relay system, was introduced. These devices became known to the controls industry as programmable logic controllers (PLC).
