@trumpet Hey man, how does caching of a federated Mastodon instance work?
Asking because when I view a certain account hosted on @social.tchnics.de, on mas.to I see Toots up to 14th February, on mastoton.social I see most recent Toots (from yesterday).
Is it refreshed automatically at some point?
@ml If I go to toots and replies instead of just toots it shows current content! Interesting. So the content is there, just not showing under toots.
@trumpet Yes, and the picture is old as well.
@ml Honestly I’m not sure, maybe one of the developers of Mastodon could shed some light on it! Not sure if it’s a bug or just depends which of that user’s posts have been previously viewed by a user on this instance. As toots and replies shows everything it’s clear the connection between this instance and that one are okay,
.
@trumpet Ok, so the picture seems to be fixed. Did you do that or is this just a coincidence?
@ml I refreshed the profile manually didn’t seem to change the toots shown though.
@trumpet Maybe if I give you an example:
