I think there may be problems. Looks like there is a bug with 0.19.0 that may be affecting us. I made a post in a local sub and checked later from a login to a different instance and I don't see the new post.

0.19.0 has a critical bug where sending outgoing activities can stop working. The bug is fixed in this version. It also fixes the “hide read posts” user setting, fixes a problem with invalid comment paths, and another fix for private message reports.

That show pissed me off so badly when it was on. I had friends that watched it. The whole thing is dark and sick.

It also always reminds me of Idiocracy, except with crazy brainwashed religious ppl outbreeding everyone, instead of just stupid ppl.
