Time outs (self.lemmy_ca_support)

Ever since things came back up after the Jan 5th outage, I've started to encounter regular timeouts. I will scroll past a couple dozen number posts and then it will stop as of there are no more. Within a few seconds, the application produces a time out error.

I use Boost for Lemmy as my client, but I'm not convinced that the issue is the app since switching my instance allows me to continue scrolling without a problem. And to be clear, prior to January 5th, I've never experienced a timeout in the app.

I'm curious if I'm the only one experiencing timeouts on Lemmy.ca. If so, then I'm curious if the admins are aware of any issue.

[10 Feb 2025 Update: After Lemmy.ca was updated to 0.19.9, cloudflare account changed, and their hardware infrastructure replaced... everything has started functioning normally again. I can't say what the cause was yet, but the WebUI and any connected app is scrolling through feeds without any timeouts now. 💯]

Perhaps I need to stick on a different instance for a little while to see if it happens again.

And I guess I should try out another client to see if I experience the same problems there.

I'm a little confused by your Signal comment though. Is there a Lemmy client with that name?

Are you on mobile? If so I tried turning off my WiFi and just using data and it seemed to help, which is even weirder.

No, sorry, I meant Sync. Amended.

When I time out again, I will try mobile and see what happens. That would be strange for it to work then... But since the network is reset in the process and the data is taking a different route... That would at least mean something.
