Federation problems? (feddit.uk)

I'm still getting some federation weirdness, but this issue seems to be to do with general federation rather than particular actions.

This community: https://feddit.uk/c/lemmydirectory@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Refuses to update! Some posts have been edited but the edits don't come through. New posts are added but the only way I can get them to come through to feddit.uk is to search for the full original URL.

Is there an issue here? Or is it just being very slow?

Sorry about the delay, it took a bit to figure out where the problem was. It turned out to be AutoMod kicking in because of the length of the posts. Settings have been adjusted and they should come through the next time they are updated. There are a few other instances with the same problem, so we'll be reaching out to them.

Ah-ha, so it wasn't a general Lemmy problem after all... Thanks for looking into this and finding the problem!

Lemmy's post limit is generous to cope with such massive posts but it seems AutoMod's default settings aren't.

Looks like today's "best of" post hasn't come through.

It may be worth noting that the character limit on Lemmy (at least on db0) is 50,000 characters. I know the directory posts are very very close to the limit (although that best of one shouldn't be).

OK, I'll have a poke around and see what I can find.

Ultimately though, this is best done through a database.

Yeah, it looks broken again, nothing much coming through on that community for a few days. Could be post length still.

The latest "welcome" post has come through and updated. Other older posts are not up-to-date, and there's at least one missing.
