hmm, is it possible that maybe both of those mbin instances blocks imgur? I have accounts on both but I'm using fedia as my main

if this keeps up I might just abandon mbin and go with Lemmy while waiting for piefed lol...

annoying that they get preachy about it

[–] JayGray91@fedia.io 1 points 18 hours ago

how to do that?

Instances admins would start to advocate to defederate from them just like with Meta's Threads IMO.

And for another, at any time users can view Categories of Communities, such as all things Fediverse, News & Politics, or Gaming, and now users can even create our own customized Feeds

I like the sound of this. Pardon the comparison, but it's like multisubreddit. That's one of the big things from reddit I miss. Making my own categorised feed.

I use Private Internet Access (PIA) and that has port forwarding. I read something about it on reddit but forgot about it, so idk of there's anything bad it controversial surrounding PIA.

I appreciate knowing both. I have a Lemmy instance account too.

@meldrik@lemmy.wtf thank you for your answer.

Thanks for shedding light on that feature on fedia. Yeah, I kind of did not find a need to do this. The question just crossed my mind yesterday and somehow I thought I need to know.

 

I tried making the question makes sense.

So I'll just give an example and my situation:

I'm browsing on fedia.io, clicked open a post that's from a community on lemm.ee, and it opens through my instance.

Say I want to see that post in a) lemm.ee, b) another instance not the home instance of that post, e.g. ani.social.

How I understand it, I'd have to search go to the instance I want and search the post on /all basically.

Any easier or automated way?

Cant read the article due to paywall

Woah, when did The Verge have a paywall?

[–] JayGray91@fedia.io 2 points 3 days ago

someone in that department is getting a promotion, I bet

idk I prefer florisboard more in general

but currently they don't have any autocorrect or swipe typing

Never heard of this one before. too bad it doesn't have a mobile version as well.

 

I've tried searching for other posts that ask a similar question, but I couldn't fine one that could fully make me understand what it would mean in this scenario.

So far from my understanding is that if I browse All, the instance I'm on won't show anything at all from the instances that it blocked. But manually doing the workaround would still show me the community and whatever posts that got federated in my instance. Is my understanding correct?

The other topic of federation that I'm interested to understand as a user are below.

The example: fedia.io states in their federation list that it does not federate with ani.social. But ani.social states they federate with fedia.io.

I can go to say !anime@ani.social just fine via fedia.io, although there is some posts that doesn't show. Is this one of the result of this situation?

Additionally, today I did basically try to subscribe to all the same communities/magazines on my lemmy.world (I'm considering to abandon this account), fedia.io and kbin.earth accounts.

Other than the situation above happened to some communities where some post doesn't sync, I've also found some communities that's just inaccessible from either 3 instances.

Is that another result of not being federated?

Thanks in advanced.
