Twitter died at Elon Musks hand. I made an account at Reddit to get my daily dose of news, entertainment and discourse. Funny how Reddit appears to go a similar route now as Twitter now :-(

Time to give Lemmy a chance?

  • Ok… After changing some settings, I got this log:

    2023-06-13T15:16:56.808411Z ERROR HTTP request{http.method=GET http.scheme="http" http.host=lemmy.pathoris.de http.target=/api/v3/ws otel.kind="server" request_id=6603f30f-4523-4548-a82c-f38c22d1889f http.status_code=101 otel.status_code="OK"}: lemmy_server::api_routes_websocket: only_mods_can_post_in_community: only_mods_can_post_in_community
    

    That explains a lot, I think :-)

    Apparently my instance does try to push, as I expected, but the community is protected on lemmy.world. That’s a bit surprising still, since I thought it is a test group to test federation and such, but since that wasn’t specified anywhere, it’s fair enough that this could be a test-group by lemmy.world for lemmy.world :-)


  • Sure. But things don’t push to remote communities, it’s a pull system.

    I understand that I complete communities are not pushed, but for articles this seems counter-intuitive:

    1. My comments to remote posts are automatically replicated, so it is not only pull

    2. What’s the point of subscribing to a remote community via my server if the articles I post to that remote community are not pushed? My own instance is basically useless if questions to e.g. support-communities remain only on my own instance and I have to create an account on the remote instance in order to actually interact with that community.

    So can you see the lemmy.world community you subscribed to from your instance?

    Yes, although the comments to this article, for example, are still not replicated. But it seems comments are slowly arriving on my server…
