Articles on self-hosted servers not propagated?
Articles on self-hosted servers not propagated?
I set up a self-hosted instance yesterday, so far it runs fine. I can subscribe from there to communities hosted on other instances, I can comment from my instance and the comments show up on other instances.
However, I subscribed to https://lemmy.world/c/lemmyworldtest from my own instance to test if my posts will be propagated, and that seems not to work (yet?).
Is this a known problem? Would the upstream instance subscribe to my instance for this to work? Or is this a bug in my configuration?
You're viewing part of a thread.
Ok, here is a link to the community replicated to my own server: EDIT: https://lemmy.pathoris.de/c/[email protected]
Things don’t automatically propagate to other instances FYI. Someone from a remote instance would need to follow your community
I get that, but it is not my community. It's the community on lemmy.world, to which I subscribed.
Sure. But things don’t push to remote communities, it’s a pull system. So can you see the lemmy.world community you subscribed to from your instance?

I understand that I complete communities are not pushed, but for articles this seems counter-intuitive:
-
My comments to remote posts are automatically replicated, so it is not only pull
-
What's the point of subscribing to a remote community via my server if the articles I post to that remote community are not pushed? My own instance is basically useless if questions to e.g. support-communities remain only on my own instance and I have to create an account on the remote instance in order to actually interact with that community.

Yes, although the comments to this article, for example, are still not replicated. But it seems comments are slowly arriving on my server...
