When my Mastodon instance was down I took another shot at Friendica. Here are my thoughts about it.

    @anders I remember you had, I can’t remember, someone posted something on the Friendica support group, not sure if it was you or anyone else.

    Yea, I had the same issue as you. Indeed, federation between Friendica and Lemmy servers seems a bit problematic, I still search for my posts and comments on a separate Lemmy tab, unfortunately, don’t know if this is a Lemmy/Friendica issue or just related to ActivityPub, as [email protected] was saying in a previous comment. I am surprised that this comment made it through w/o such an input from my end, so wow! 😁

      @petrescatraian and this one made it as well, right? :D

      I solved the issue by spinning up my own instance :D it seems like a Libranet/Venera problem rather than a Friendica problem, because now it works fine for me.

        @anders wow, speechless. I guess you never know where the problem comes from, haha.

        I previously tried to force-load my initial comment to this post as well, but nothing happened, wherever I tried. 😁

            indeed but at least i have access to the logs now if the same or something else will happen again 😁

            That really is an advantage, congrats on your new server, haha! 😁

            you mean force load by searching?

            Yes

              @petrescatraian thank you :D

              i see. in my experience it worked with the link but it seemed like Lemmy users didnt get notifications when i did it and there for didnt reply.

              anyways it works now (out of the blue) so thats great! :D
