CIRCLE WITH A DOT

@rasterweb there should be a “pay it forward” wall of random screws donated from the local community organized by size. I have plenty of random screws, and I wish I could trade them for a different size sometimes!

@skinnylatte curious about how they enforce hours. I assume it's a trust thing? Or is there some kind of fancy wifi cutoff?

@aeris @mcc and yet, despite the 43 min latency you’re reporting, we’ve been having a perfectly synchronous conversation for the last 15 minutes.

@aeris @mcc like I have already said — every post you’ve made just now has failed to deliver to several instances. Your instance is running just fine is it not?

If mastodon.social goes down. It would add ONE more failed delivery to the queue of thousands your instance is already managing.

@aeris @mcc this post you made probably just failed to deliver to a few instances. One of them could be mastodon.social if it was down.

How does that affect delivery to masto.ai?

mastodon.social being down is no different to your server than any other server being down. One request each.

@aeris @mcc failed deliveries happen all the time. mastodon.social is just another instance. Since Mastodon and misskey operate on shared inboxes, the failed deliveries won’t scale sender failures by recipient instance size.
