A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Ah. You sound like you've looked at the code, can you say if there's some sort of admin command to sync a whole instance?
I've looked at some stuff... More to get an understanding of ActivityPub in specific.
I do not particularly know of a specific "sync everything" command and even if there was one that would be problematic... Sync everything... as in what exists right now? or forever in perpetuity?
The only way I can think of doing it right now would be to grab a list of all the communities on a server and just script searching for them all one by one. That would effectively sync everything forever for all the communities that currently exist.
Yeah, that would work. Paging @[email protected], who started this discussion and who does self-host. To save you a click, here's the libraries you could use for that.
