So my guess is that Roadhouse doesn't follow what Mastodon calls "locked" accounts.

Or there might be a bug related to that on the Epicyon side.

The follow request did turn up eventually. It might just be that Roadhouse sends them out in a batch every so often.

We try to send them immediately, but if "something happens" (I test under shared hosting and something always happens) the delivery is deferred and waits for the next queue run (usually every 10-15 minutes depending on how you set up your scheduled cron job).

There's also a service worker addon which is probably more efficient in a VPS environment but there's still a deferred queue as a fallback.

I think it might have been due to an unrelated bug on the Epicyon side, which was causing a crash and so messing with the inbox processing.

No worries. I had a similar problem with my activitypub inbox this morning.

Simple typo that I should've caught before pushing it to my production site, but that's the only place I could test the change.
