Some of my posts seem to be glitching out, ie they have zero likes or comments after 10 minutes, which seems improbable...then suddenly a bunch show up. Growing pains?

There's a similar issue with following/unfollowing/blocking. Seems like it works, then you check their profile again and it didn't register. Growing pains I think.
This is normal for systems like Bluesky. Updates like likes and comments are processed asynchronously in batches and parallel queues, depending on server capacity.This can cause temporary fluctuations.They do incredible work with their current resources, but yes,scaling up servers would help a lot.
i think the servers are slow, off and on. the same thing happened with my pins. my pin feed was empty and then all of a sudden, they funneled in like 12 hours later.
Yea I think they are working on the servers? As long as it is not always like this its okay... btw if you want to see something cool https://firesky.tv/ <3
Absolutely. We couldn’t post a video clip yesterday, then today we could do it again. We also got a message back after submitting a bug report! And saw the fix. Seems like they are scrambling behind the scenes.
Internal server error is something we should not see. But me as developer, I know why is this happenending and I'm still amazed what they do with such a little.
It might have something to do with BlueSky being down in some countries around the world, I am in the UK and haven't seen anything for the last 2 hours
in a distributed, decentralized, asynchronous service architecture , #eventualconsistency is ok for some things. "catching up" is fine for likes and comments. as the small bsky is scaling up, they're prioritizing back end services like Identity/Auth. without real-time on those we can't log on.

Growing pains for sure! Not the worst problem to have.
That's ok, hope they painfully grow and grow
#ECHOMACHINE2025
With my posts, from time to time, I've noticed a post does appear till about 10mins after my initial posting.
Either way, I'll take this over random half naked bots sending me friend requests 3+ times a day.

"The jokes sort of write themselves"
Perhaps we've all become sticklers too?
... and is "Growing pains?" an actual sentence?
I'm just kidding. Kinda :-)
Looking forward to reading the Echo Machine!
