Nothing posted from Lemmy to a Fedia magazine is federating out to that magazine/community on other Lemmy instances. I don’t think it is working for kbin either.
eg. https://fedia.io/m/ukdtt/t/143141/DTT-licence-updates-26-Jul-2023 - posted from feddit.uk to a fedia.io magazine (and has successfully reached the home instance), has not turned up on https://rabbitea.rs/c/[email protected]
Checking other magazines I don’t think this is working properly for any of them, but don’t know if it is just fedia or a wider kbin problem.
Anyone else seen similar?
This is something I have been wondering; but does that mean kbin/this instance is not involved at all?
For the post in question, the original url is https://feddit.uk/post/771973 , a lemmy instance. OP is asking why it isn’t getting sent to rabbitea.rs, another lemmy instance. Is
feddit.ukresponsible for sending it there? But how would it know aboutrabbitea.rssubscribers? And surely the destination magazine must be involved somehow to run rules on like, banned users? otherwise that means any external user banned by fedia could continue to post forever with no way to stop them and it would still federate out everywhereYes, this doesn’t make sense. How I thought it worked is that the originating server would push the new article to the home instance, and the other instances then pull from there (or the home server pushes; whatever, same net effect). If that isn’t how it works, I don’t see how it can work, as every server which posts to a magazine would need to know who subscribes to it. Certainly in the case of Mastodon, it doesn’t have a concept of this, yet can post to communities/magazines and the comments federate out (maybe comments work differently though? There doesn’t appear to be a problem with comments as far as I can tell)
