Polyamory & Open Relationships
Polyamory (from Ancient Greek πολύς (polús) 'many', and Latin amor 'love') is the practice of, or desire for, romantic relationships with more than one partner at the same time, with the informed consent of all partners involved.[1][2] Some people who identify as polyamorous believe in consensual non-monogamy with a conscious management of jealousy and reject the view that sexual and relational exclusivity (monogamy) are prerequisite for deep, committed, long-term, loving relationships.[3] Others prefer to restrict their sexual activity to only members of the group, a closed polyamorous relationship that is usually referred to as polyfidelity.[4][5]

It's not anything you did wrong, just the way federation works on lemmy.
So does that mean, eventually it will federate? That someone on a given instance just needs to sub this community, first to make that link of 'federation', and then it will proceed? If so pretty nifty, really.
Only new items will federate. This prevents instances from getting swamped with the entire history of a new muni every time. Not perfect, but it works well enough.
Understood. Hence the option of viewing a community at it's home instance.
I think it doesn't even require someone subbing the community for federation to begin. Simply doing a search for @[email protected] on another instance is enough to federate with that instance, on Mbin instances at least. Their instance will be missing any existing posts you have, but will receive all new posts. Same goes for searching for other Fediverse users and their content.
Congrats! You did well starting a community on Mbin. Also, thank you for boosting my pretty niche post today. I was curious and browsed your profile a little bit and found your call for halp. Poly only works when everyone is open with each other and communicates these things.
I liked the title, so poetic by itself. I took a closer look at the image. Floating is lovely.
There are many ways, in my experience, for human relations to work, and the communication can come in many varied modes and media. It's what fascinates me about our species, and the other species we surround ourselves with, the shear variety of communication.
