Running into a weird issue with my self hosted Lemmy instance and was hoping to get some help. I have 2 accounts on my instance and the first account made during the setup can’t subscribe to any communities (they show up in my feed, but never change from pending, not a single one), can’t post comments others can see outside my instance, and interact in any way really. I only just realized this recently and tried making a post here that still hasn’t shown up outside my own instance, so now I’m trying on my other (intended to be) bot account. This account can subscribe and unsubscribe from communities no problem, aside from the big instances that everyone seems to have trouble with, so I’m hoping this post makes it through? Please let me know if it does and if you have any idea on why this might happen, thanks!

For micro/personal server runners, I built a tool to automatically discover and add communities to your local instance :)

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don’t control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we’re here to support and learn from one another. Insults won’t be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it’s not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don’t duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.
