Outgoing federation issues (self.announcements)

As you may have read in other threads, this version of Lemmy (0.19.1) seems to have bugs in outgoing federation on some instances.

As a temporary fix, we have added a scheduled restart of Lemmy every hour. It only takes a few seconds to restart, and the big advantage is that your comments and posts are only delayed up to 1 hour before they federate to other instances. You probably wont notice the restart even.

This will be in effect until a bug fix arrives from Lemmy developers, probably after new years sometime.

Thanks for reading and merry x-mas to everyone. :)

I'm still having problems. None of my comments or posts go outbound. But thank you for working on the problem!

Yeah its really annoying and makes it hard to have any discussions at all.

I will try now to restart only the lemmy docker container and see how it seems to work out. If the restart seems to work reliably many times in a row, I can schedule it to happen automatically.

Not giving up on making this work somehow. :)

Edit: Tried a restart of only the lemmy container and it does give like 20 seconds of downtime so not ideal. But maybe worth doing a couple of times per day at least.
