#MastodonSocial - heads up!

Mastodon.social's posts are not federating out in a timely fashion because another instance is lagging, which is causing mastodon.social's delivery jobs to pile up. Right now there are about 300,000 delivery jobs waiting to go out, but they're reliant on that one instance not taking 10 seconds to respond to every request.

There's not a whole lot m.s can do except wait it out; hopefully this will be resolved soon.

@noelle This sounds like the Fediverse has a denial-of-service vulnerability
