On my main (@[email protected]), I moderate [email protected]. I thought I’d kinda federate my existence on the platform by creating this alt on lemmy.ml, but when I search communities, while I can find some other lemmy.world ones (validating that .ml/.world federation is working as I understand it), technicaldeathmetal isn’t found. Am I doing something dumb as a user? As a mod? Have I misunderstood the intent of this instance, and I’d be better off trying the same thing from elsewhere? TIA

    actually, it looks like theres some issue keeping lemmy.world federating properly with lemmy.ml atm. I saw another post mentioning it and checked myself.

    https://lemmy.ml/c/[email protected] shows the most recent post as 2 days ago when there was really a post around 4 hours ago.

    that’d certainly keep new lemmy.world communities from getting pulled in.

    neither server has defederated with the other, so don’t expect it to be a permanent issue
