Federation / nginx issues with ansible installation?

I'm hopefully finishing up my first Lemmy installation through Ansible and have now enabled federation but think there are issues.

What's working:

  • See instances showing up in the instances list
  • Searching across federated sites works

What's not working:

  • When trying to subscribe to communities on other sites, I see "subscribe pending" - I found this Github issue which points to troubleshooting with CURL commands - they should return valid JSON and instead return nothing.
  • Posted to other communities doesn't seem to go through - I'm guessing the same problem.

As far as I can tell, this is probably an nginx configuration problem. Is that the case, and what's the best way to tackle that given the Ansible setup?

Thank you!
