Got any ideas to make the instance better? Any issue with federating from your home instance? Post it here.
Hi I'm having issues federating lemmy.fmhy.ml to the aobprepub community (keep on getting not found). By any chance can you check if therer were any attempts from lemmy.fmhy.ml to federate?
Edit:
Just to make sure is this the correct way to federate? https://i.imgur.com/uSPPAJG.png
I also tried https://lemmy.fmhy.ml/c/aobprepub@bookwormstory.social
Regarding federation, searching for [!aobprepub@bookwormstory.social](/c/aobprepub@bookwormstory.social) should work but currently doesn't (reliably), please use the full url instead (in this case https://bookwormstory.social/c/aobprepub), federation might take some time so give it up to a minute before assuming it failed.
If that doesn't work please refer to my other comment
Federation with lemmy.fmhy.ml worked in the past and the only thing that changed in between was me updating lemmy. I'll see if I missed a step while upgrading and report back (1-2h)
Edit: don't seem to have missed anything, you could either wait for the admin of your instance to update lemmy or ask them to do so. It would likely resolve the issue as federation with 0.17.4 instances of lemmy still works and lemmy.fmhy.ml is on version 0.17.3
Got it working (it took 3-5 hrs) for federation to work but now it just works :)
I'm trying to connect to here from a Mastodon instance, but when I type in the account in the search box, no results are found. A hypothesis that came up is that cloudflare is blocking some requests so federation can't take place. Are we behind CF?
No I considered it but decided against it due to reports that cloudflare caused issues. It might be related to my proxy setup but I'll have to investigate that.
Looked into it a bit and also cleaned up the proxy config.
Result: Maybe Mastodon is confused because my public IP also has a Mastodon instance but other than that, no idea. Looking up Mastodon Instances from here works but for some reason not the reverse. Will investigate more tomorrow
Thanks!
Update: I can federate, praise the gods! \o/
It probably was the proxy config then
