Do people not read messages?
Do people not read messages?
Over the weeks I've sent a bunch of messages, like offering mod positions, asking for things etc. and I get no responses to about half of them.
Sure, nobody owes me a reply, but I'm wondering if there's a different reason, such as:
-
Ignoring all notifications, because there's no immediate distinction between a DM or a comment reply
-
Using an app that doesn't support messages (which one would that be?)
-
Federation issues (when sending a DM to a different instance)
Thoughts?

Send me a msg, I am on my own instance. Best way to double test it!

3 1 ReplyMsg received, all ok, so federation is not the thing.
8 0 ReplyYup, at least not at this moment.
2 1 ReplyYeah, federation is being creaky globally right now. The GitHub issue list is littered with admins reporting intermittent federation issues.
I wouldn't expect it to repeatedly prevent communication though. Just maybe some intermittent issues occasionally.
