As a reminder, ClubsAll is still showing all of Lemmy's content without federating back (clubsall.com)

A post from 2 months ago which explained the context: https://lemmy.world/post/20694710

I just had a look, nothing has changed, the website is still using Lemmy's content to pretend to be active

So im a bit confused, if they are federated whats the issue? Is it just a one way street or something?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

It's a one way federation: they only fetch Lemmy's comment, but don't allow other instances to get their content.

There are more details in the post linked in the OP

this isn't entirely true, they do have some comments on lemmy as well, here are some examples:

it seems to be primarily about their communities not federating though i guess?

and either nobody from there posted a post to a lemmy community yet or maybe it doesn't federate posts currently?

I was talking about the communities indeed.

From the project creator

Sorry you feel that way. Keep in mind that we built everything from scratch. Federation is not currently implemented, and we’ll need time.

ugh, i didn't notice they're even hiding domains of remote communities for "simplicity" in most cases. that seems so much more dishonest tbh.

The idea was to simplify federation for a non tech user. I believe that is literally why ActivityPub is not able to effectively compete.

We are trying to simplify by hiding all complexities. If we try nothing new, the results will not change. There have been many threads about ClubsAll and everyone disagrees what is fair and unfair, so it has been difficult for us to comply. Would it be fair to ask for a common set of rules to be fair to everyone and give me a chance to save clubsall?

Yes, the whole thing is fishy
