Hey all! Weve just moved our comm from [email protected] to [email protected] How long will it take for posts to go over? Right now almost nothing is showing and it’s been about 12 hours
Hi there,
The community migration feature that PieFed has is quite limited - no posts are actually transferred from the old instance to the new one. All that happens is that a remote community (which might have only received a few posts as piefed.blahaj.zone is very new) is reassigned to be a local community and all the posts in it too.
That’s why [email protected] has only 5 days of posts.
It’s a bit “smoke and mirrors”.
On a more mature instance, like piefed.social, which has been subscribed to communities for a long time the instance has most of the history of most communities so the migration feature works relatively well.
Ahhhh OK thanks. In the jerboa app I only see this why is that? I’ve made other new posts there but they’re not showing on jerboa
I haven’t followed the app and API development that closely, but I think Jerboa isn’t among the apps which support Piefed. There is some (short) discussion here: https://piefed.social/post/893500
(What works is Interstellar. And there is some more talk about apps here: https://piefed.social/post/891503 )
Ahhhh OK thanks
Right now, interstellar is the only app that works with piefed
Which, it’s not my favorite app, but it definitely works fully as far as I’ve seen. Haven’t tested every function though.
I don’t know, sorry.
Np thanks for replying
Somewhat unrelated, but good luck with the move! Hopefully Piefed moderation features will make things more manageable. :)
Thanks cabbage! Ada has been amazing she’s worked so hard for us
