Yet another lemmy instance proudly hosted in Montreal, Canada. Still need to get a icon created, if there are any designers here who would like to contribute please feel free to post!

Hi! Thanks for setting up this instance! I've also been advising newcomers to sign up here since you seem to have the resources for it.

However, I have been seeing some weird behavior in some federated posts: vote discrepancies and also comments not showing up.

E.g. compare
https://feddit.de/post/764358 with
https://sh.itjust.works/post/9023 (same post federated here)

All votes and comments are missing. Now I don't expect Lemmy to be 100% bug-free of course, but this seems serious. Could you please investigate this?

I'm new here, to this Lemmy thing as well as this 'instance'? (I feel like I'm using hip new words).

I think I have managed to subscribe to a boardgame community that is hosted on !boardgames feddit.de- I can't see the comments and such when viewing from here as well.

I'm also having difficulty finding and adding this solo boardgame community because I can't get it to show up in the search box. Is this a Lemmy thing or an instance thing?

~~I think the issue with feddit.de is that, "I think", it is blocking the federetaion with this server. I may be totally wrong, since I am digging how this works for like 1h, but I can see this server as "blocked" here: https://lemmymap.feddit.de/ I wish there was a list instead of the map because it is unreadable, but you can search for sh.itjust.works there. Remember to select "blocked" first in the bottom left.~~

EDIT: Incorrect information. Read comments below.

So if it is blocking us, then the only solutions on my end would be:

Try to reach out to someone and see if it could be unlocked/if it was intentional or
Sign up with another instance where the main communities I want aren't blocking them

I'm not very network/backend/whateverisgoingonhere savvy.

I think the most appropriate way would be for @TheDude to reach out to their team and request federation.

[–] justpassingby 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yes (I think). The two approaches above are the ones that comes to mind. Again, I am super-new here so I really hope I am not misleading you ^^; And what @[email protected] just commented (reaching out ot the admin).

Commenting just to add that you can go to the /instances endpoint of any Lemmy server to see the instances they are and are not federated with. The feddit.de list can be seen here. Their list shows that they are federated with us.

Thanks for the link! It is much easier to see the federated servers there.
