Ah yeah just checked and looks like I see can see their communites, didnt realize they already joined in. So yes we are federated with them atm, just if a community hasnt been subscribed to yet by anyone the posts from it wont show up in the feeds

I can enter a community but I can't see any posts. For example: https://programming.dev/c/[email protected]

Weird, what might be happening is posts from before they were federated dont show up but ones after are. Theres posts in [email protected]

I think it might be due to discoverability? I remember reading something about that. If no one in this instance is subscribed to an external community, the server doesn't load their posts, or something like that.

Edit: OH what a dummy, you just said that lol.
