Lemmy does not automatically discover communities from other peers, you have to search for them and have at least one user subscribe.
I apologize but I am not following.
On my instance I cannot search other instances.
But here on blahaj I can.
I tried adding instances but I cannot search those (that were added) either.
for clarity, you are searching for communities, right? search for "!cats@sh.itjust.works"
It can take 10 seconds, and also fail, so refresh the page.
If it doesn't work, then likely your nginx config is blocking incoming federation activity. There are some closed issues on Github/lemmy project.
YOOO,.. I have no idea what changed. But I finally could connect to Cats cries in fluffy kitty pictures
Thank you!!!!!!!
[resolved]
To all who come here with the same issue, I am op posting from my new instance.
[!cats@lemmy.blahaj.zone](/c/cats@lemmy.blahaj.zone) after clicking search, wait 5-10 seconds and it will pull upThanks self!
You're welcome self!
(I'm such a dork)
I want to try this, do I need to change the lemmy domain to my own instance url? (if this is a double comment, I tried it from my own instance, but can't see it on my alt. If someone can see this 2 times, I'm sorry.)
Thanks, I am reading through the code : D
I think my disconnect is I don't understand how the instances connect so this is a HUGE help sends hugs
I couldn't get it running but I was able to sub to a cat place!!!!!
I still want to get your thingy to work. I KNOW I am doing something wrong
docker run --name lemmy-subscriber-bot --restart always -dt --env 'LEMMY_USERNAME=lemmy_bot' --env 'LEMMY_PASSWORD=redacted' --env 'LEMMY_DOMAIN=nerdly.dev' lflare/lemmy-subscriber-bot .
Returns
docker: Error response from daemon: failed to create shim task: OCI runtime create failed: runc create failed: unable to start container process: exec: ".": executable file not found in $PATH: unknown.
I will try it again but I just wanted to say thanks again. With your code I created my own dumb python script that is working. I want to create a great aggregator and you are sending me in the right direction!
I think I will keep working on this and share with you what I did (if you will find it helpful) Or create a pull req if I have the time for your code as well.
This is REALLY what Lemmy needs and is severely missing!
You rock! Meow!
Would you be able to give a brief overview of what your tool does? I feel like it's perfect for my situation, but am new enough to all this that I'm not exactly sure what the tool does.
