Goofed Home

I’m not sure if this is the wrong place to post this; my apologies if it’s not.

Anyway, I have an inquiry about Mastodon replies seeming to not post to show up on Lemmy.

Earlier today I made a post on Mastodon and made it post to Lemmy as well, by @ing the community I wanted it to appear in. Here’s a link to the post on Mastodon, and here’s how it showed up on Lemmy. At first, everything seemed to work fine.

But something I noticed is that, though the Lemmy comments were visible to me on Mastodon, the reverse was not true: most of the Mastodon replies were not visible on Lemmy. So there seems to have been some federation issues there.

So my question is, does anyone know what caused this and if so how I can fix it?

Okay thanks for the info

Thanks for all the hard work you put in for making a create social network (Piefed) and helping grow the fediverse 🫡 I appreciate it. Keep fighting the good fight

I was asking Rimu, but good to get confirmation that it’s working for you at least :)

I see, that is understandable.

my dude (dudette?) , you’re doing an amazing job, so thank you

Going by experience, it helps greatly to block news communities, or at least the domains or users that have a predilection for sharing misery, fear, envy, and all the doom “goodness”. Also requires being able to identify such places and people, but I’d imagine a small pain at the moment is much better than to have your filter polluted and grinding your gears slowly enough that when you get to have enough, you’re at the verge of snapping. And if using RSS feeds, since those usually don’t have custom feeds applied¹, Ublock Origin for hiding the whole post based on who posted or what site it links to helps too.

¹Lemmy has RSS feeds for any given user’s feed btw.

An article making the case that the Fediverse is a fantastic communication platform for public institutions - because of its openness, transparency and reach.

Hey @sl007@digitalcourage.social. Thanks for the message. I couldn’t find any details about Menschys or Fedigeo, I’d love to know more about what you’re doing. But just to clarify, I’m not planning to use ActivityPub in Habitat. I’ve realised recently that using the term “Fediverse” – and perhaps posting to this Fediverse community has caused some confusion. Additionally, before I looked further into what ActivityPub was, I thought I was going to use it. I was under the impression that any decentralised system would count as “a part the fediverse”. Habitat will certainly be federated, but it’s possible that it will only be a Fediverse platform as much as email (for example) is a Fediverse platform. I don’t plan to write any functionality that will implicitly allow non-Habitat applications communicate with it. I hope that clears things up. My apologies for the confusion, it seems I’ve confused a lot of people over this and it wasn’t my intention.

Haha okay. Thanks for the info!

Sounds good to me!

Did you receive my email from last Thursday? Seems there might be some delivery problem.

I tested this. It works perfectly fine. We can implement this today and remove it when Mastodon supports threadiverse conversations better (I’ll try to make that happen.)

Wow that’s a really proactive response, thank you! Please keep me posted on how it goes

I see it
