see this lemmy-ansible github issue for the fix; basically, our web server now knows how to handle activitypub traffic in a more conforming way

to interact with us from mastodon:

  • find the community you want to subscribe to here. note its real name – that’s the name in the sidebar after the !
  • search for @communityname@awful.systems in mastodon
  • follow that user and enjoy our posts over there! replying and boosting should work ok, no guarantees for anything else

as for interacting with mastodon from here, I think you can paste mastodon URLs into our search and it’ll maybe work? someone try that

      now I’m actually not sure if it does. it seems like there’s a bit of code in there to support it, but I’m not sure if it’s complete. I need to dig a bit deeper and check lemmy’s code against mastodon’s expectations for authorized fetch

    Current status:

    • I posted to sneerclub
    • it hasn’t shown up on my Mastodon server yet
    • when I search @sneerclub@awful.systems it shows my follow is pending

      that’s weird. maybe what @kuna@awful.systems said about authorized fetch is still the case and it’s what’s going on here? I wish it was easier to debug federation – nothing gives me logs. there’s a federation debug option in lemmy but there aren’t any docs for it, so I’m a bit afraid to turn it on until I see exactly what it does
