At this point, I have 3 Lemmy accounts. One on lemmy.world, one on fanaticus.social, and a third I just created on lemmy.ca. It’s interesting to see how federation works or, more importantly, how it still has some issues to resolve. We know at this point that posts have not been federating between lemmy.world and fanaticus.social. But on the .ca account, this entire NY Mets community is empty. Not a single post appears. I’m posting this to point out the issue, but also to see if this post appears when I switch to fanaticus.

    Just FYI, interaction with the prior posts seems to force federation. I went through and upvoted every post in this Community from one of my other accounts. And the Community went from completely empty to fully populated on lemmy.ca. It also helped posts make their way over to lemmy.world.

        Minor correction to that. It seems to force prior posts to federate, but not the comments on those prior posts. Interacting with those comments from other instances doesn’t seem to have the same affect. So prior posts just appear with no comments.

        Oh well. Still learning and experimenting.
