Oh, I’m dumb - that makes more sense. Thank you!
Well, I’m glad I wasn’t crazy then. :)
Because you mentioned it might be a bug, I want to see if I am doing this correctly: https://media.piefed.zip/posts/5H/Ae/5HAe01shxjOXnop.png
It says pending, and I remember this was one of the issues when I had bot fight mode on in cloudflare and the following of user profiles wouldn’t work in /world.
Is this the similar to the same issue?
Is this how I would correctly be adding an incoming community to a “similar Communities” section?
Yeah, but it was empty for me. Might require login or something. Or maybe there are just no related communities?
Eh, either way - not a big deal lol
Ok, that’s good news! Also, I checked the activitypub.space, and see they have a related communities section, but it wasn’t clickable for me (maybe it just requires login, or some other simple issue inm missing) - regardless that is a great feature and might be a good way to pull content into the forum without muddying the content within my primary categories. :)
Thank you!
Thank you. 1. I’ll definitely check out Anubis and your configuration to see if it will work for my scenario. 2. Ok, good to know - if it’s simply a bug then that that’s fine, mostly I wanted to make sure it wasn’t an indicator that something deeper was broken or getting blocked in the communication. 3. Sorry, I used the term instance when I meant community. But it sounds like the federation is more so to bring traffic into the forum, rather then out. Did I understand that correctly? If that is the case, then I may not opt to use it - as I was originally hoping for a way to push forum content into communities. I’ll explore this further I guess - because I’m unfamiliar with relays and fedibuzz.
Overall, I appreciate the detailed response :)
Yep.
FediGroups works with all the popular server types – Mastodon, Misskey, Firefish, Iceshrimp, Sharkey, Catodon, Friendica
Weird exclusion of all threadiverse server types, there.
Yep, but to get those features you have to access it from the piefed/lemmy instance. gup.pe/friendica style groups predate lemmy though, and were designed to be accessed from your mastodon/fediverse account, rather than being signed in to directly.
