Hello all, i’m trying to selfhost lemmy on an ARM64 with docker. I thought I could have reached my instance from the fediverse, but to be honest i tried to seek it from i.e. mastodon (and even other lemmy instances) but it doesn’t simply find anything. On the other hand, from my istance I can find others (mastodon & lemmy). According to the documentation, there is not particular configuration for ports (I’m running it behind a cloudflare argo tunnel). Can anyone advice me where to find documentation that explains how to federate properly?
You must log in or register to comment.
Hello, you need add stuff to your feeds. Then post something in a community and with luck your instance should show up
Thanks Matt, apparently I was able at least to federate with lemmy.world since I got your answer… now I “just” have to figure out why I cannot find my user from mastodon (and why if I DM from lemmy my mastodon’s user, I get nothing) :)
Did you try these searches while logged in or anonymously? Lemmy (and probably other platforms) don’t allow searches for remote objects unless you’re logged in, this prevents abuse of server resources. The fact that you’re getting replies and you can see them and reply to them means it’s probably all working fine.
Hi mate, to be honest I tried both authenticated (on my own instance) and not auth. But what is strange is that from lemmy I can contact a mastodo user and even DM him (my other username in mastodon), but there I don’t receive anything -.-
