4 hours left in the #Monsterdon poll & we have a **3**-way draw atm! (In The Year 2889, Invasion: UFO, Class of 1999). Come on, people. Vote!
Discussion
@klu9 @Taweret To reduce load on the overall system, each server stores a local copy of messages for accounts its users are subscribed to (i.e., it caches them). My server’s cache was stale.
This affects things like polls, since I don’t think every vote on a poll triggers an update, but if you directly edit a post, I believe that triggers an update that gets propagated to all the subscribed servers (i.e., servers where there are followers).
Thanks, I'm now one step closer to that day 😁
BTW are you also @ramsey@don.monster ? For some reason, during Monsterdon the majority of those posts arrive in big clumps (10-30 at a time?) **for me**. An Ohai.Social-Don.Monster caching issue? Something else?
Looking back now, those posts seem spread out normally. 🤔 I guess when it's after the fact, those messages are displayed according to "sent time", not "arrived to my instance time".
