It's not just you. I've been having that issue sporadically for the past few days.
If this works then none of these have failed, thanks for replying
Got it.
Yeah known issue on our end (not sure if upstream knows about it). The PostComment method does a bunch of extra stuff after actually creating the comment, like sending notifications, clearing your own notifications, etc. I imagine one of those is doing a db query that just takes forever and times out at some point
@Angel@hexbear.net do you have anything out of the ordinary on your account? Do you have maybe 100,000 unread notifications or something
edit: wow, even tagging you causes the issue
edit 2: Do you happen to have the 'Send notifications to Email' setting enabled in your profile?
Not anymore!
test
edit: hmm no doesn't seem to be it
Lol I'm sorry I did this, I hope youre okay with the attention!
Guess I'll start clearing my notifications too.. oh no, checking replies 😰
testing again
I haven't been able to reply properly to @Angel@hexbear.net for probably 4-6 months. I can reply, but then it times out. Same if I try to upbear, it times out. It usually goes through though if I just refresh the page but it's pretty annoying. It happens with others too but mostly Angel.

You are too powerful lol.
No one tran should have all THAT POWER
Nope, sorry, it's official. You are now the chosen one.
If someone's gotta have it though I think you're a top choice
🥺
Okay you can be a bottom choice if you want

I am cursious if something is going on in the db for your user profile or something because even just now this happened when I commented:

Hexbear is trying to stop us communicating with Angels 🥺 suddenly material analysis requires us to live in reality? I want out!
glad its not just me!
Okay extra weird it timed out just tagging them so that's fun thanks Hexbear very cool
I've been having this issue with TankieTanuki for a while, and I noticed it with Angel earlier today.
I've only really noticed with Angel but for sure there were some others
Damn, I never noticed the pattern of it being specific users. I'll start keeping notes from now on to see if that's my issue, too.
Test :)
Test
I noticed this when replying to Angel as well, I just assumed it was random.
I only noticed cause we were nerding out over music the other day lol
I have frequently encountered this with posting notifications with links to other users for a while now. Editing in the the user link after posting without it has been a work around for me.
That is strange. I'm not sure that I've experienced this myself, but maybe I have.
When I post a comment lately the post button will spin for a while but if I refresh the page it will still post if I wait long enough. I did try to make a comment early to someone on Jerboa and got a "deleted by creator" error. After trying several times I gave up. Something is bogging down the way comments are processed for sure.
Same. It will post but with zero upbears
I just realized you are probably where I've heard of Foucault from. My friend was just recommending Discipline and Punishment to me last week.

What is Voyager, is it a browser?
Does it support Hexbear emojis? That's the only reason I can't use any client other than web
