confuser

why is it that when i post on some communities i cant see my post on the community but apparently at least some other people can see and respond to it?

example is when i posted on the kgatlw community about the band called doom gong recently.

is it some kind of federation shenanigans like when a server is not federated with one but the other one is?

...now that i think about it, this is probably something thst has been asled before, i should have checked before posting this but ill still post anyways.

another question, if that is the case then is there a easy way to tell which servers are federated with which?

fixed: turns out hide read posts setting was enabled so i didnt see them, i had to change it on through the browser login, changing it in the voyager app for lemmy didnt change it.

id like to make the comment section into a list of ways to use peertube. i know there is grayjay, going to the peertube instance website of your choice, and the peertube app which if i recall isnt completed yet but is expected to be done sometime soon but correct me if im wrong, im sure there are other apps people use for peertube but maybe not, i havent actually looked. As well as how does everyone interact with peertube? Is it mostly following specifically people or more like other fediverse platforms where you just make an account somewhere on a instance you deem worthy and check out the whole peertube userbase, I know each instance is like a whole YouTube website, does that mean that you have to search based on instances to find things or can you search like all vs local or whatever?

It was rainy last night but some people nearby let out a few and I got 1 really good picture from it!

I dont know if this has been asked before or if this may be a little goofy of a question but I didn't see anything relating to it and I'm kinda curious what the culture of Lemmy is like and what sort of common things people see. ive been paying attention to interactions but nothing is as good as just asking everyone.

how do you create a community on Lemmy? I'm not necessarily interested in making one and actively maintaining it but just curious.
