@dregin My local timeline is broken but everything else looks fine. There are 3 posts in total in Local and they are not current. Same thing in web and Metatext. Any ideas?

@dregin looks the same, I'm afraid

@paraic To confirm, you're seeing this both in a web browser and an app?

cc: @mastohost @Gargron

@Gargron @dregin @mastohost an update of sorts - 1 new toot has appeared in my local timeline!

@paraic @Gargron @mastohost One?! Are you're not looking at your personal timeline and have only followed a small number of folks? This is very strange, if not!

@dregin @Gargron @mastohost It is very strange and I know I could have done something odd but I've got this

@paraic @Gargron @mastohost Can you check dev tools in your browser for any errors?

@paraic @Gargron @mastohost What browser is it?

Does its dev tools have a window dedicated to web sockets? They're used to populate the timelines.

@dregin @Gargron @mastohost because it's happening everywhere I assumed it wasn't a client or user agent issue

@paraic @Gargron @mastohost no, but it would be handy to see if there was at least something there to point us in the right direction. I'm seeing very similar warnings and errors in Safari here, but my local timeline is complete.

Could you have a rogue filter set?

@dregin @Gargron @mastohost only one filter. I deleted it and reloaded but the same result

@dregin @Gargron @mastohost I have to go cook the dinner. Thanks for spending time on this.

@paraic Are you using any sort of VPN?

Do you have browser extensions on Safari?

Is there anything custom with your internet connection?

Can you try connecting using a different device like your mobile phone via the browser or using a different browser in your desktop?

Sorry for all the questions/requests but it's hard to debug without having more information.

@dregin

@dregin @mastohost I’ll have to answer these in stages as I’m cooking the dinner. It is already happening across devices and clients - 2 different browsers on macOS, an iOS browser and the Metatext app

@mastohost @dregin ok I have found it and am mortified. I started going through every preference one by one. Preferences set to restrict public timeline posts to Italian only (which I don’t speak by the way). No idea why/when that would have happened. Hope I haven’t wasted too much time

@paraic @mastohost Awesome! I'm just delighted there aren't any actual problems with the infra 😆

@paraic So great! No problem at all. It happens often and I forgot to mention that :) Glad it's working
