Universal expert: somehow, no matter what I post, my username always checks out :)
Sometimes I have to be away from the internet for days or weeks at a time. If I’m not responding, that’s probably why.
Got it. The federation was lagging, so I hadn’t seen that reply yet. Best of luck!
Oh, yep, you’re right. As I stopgap, if you’d like, I can crosspost for you, so at least you can watch for answers at !ece@lemmy.world in a browser. Just let me know if I should do that.
Ah, it’s because nobody on your instance is currently involved in that community, so it hasn’t been federated to Beehaw yet. To fix that, go to the search tool, make sure that you have “All” selected for all four filters, and enter “https://lemmy.world/c/ece”. If you get a community result, you can click on it and subscribe to the community and then crossposting should work. If you get too many results, try switching the scope from “All” to “Local”. If you get no results, it means that federation is pending but delayed. Give it a minute or two and try the search again; eventually the community should show up.
Maybe also crosspost to !ece@lemmy.world, which should be good at helping out with such questions?
Hey, I reviewed your user history and found nothing so far that raised questions or worries. Welcome to the team! Hopefully the load will be as light as it is currently.
Unless you have a reason not to, would you be able to add your pronouns to your account bio to help model the recommendation below the rules on the community sidebar? Thanks!
And, I’m sure that you know this, but let’s strive to be transparent and consistent in our moderation, seeking community input where appropriate and consulting with each other on any nonobvious decisions. I’m looking forward to working with you!

I have also added Rule #12:
If a post is tagged with a specific gender identity, keep the conversation centered on that identity.
This used to be a bot post in r/egg_irl. Hopefully it’s not controversial, but let me know if you have feedback on it.
Okay, everyone, I made an update based on your comments. Please check over the sidebar and see if it looks okay.
I’ve made some preliminary edits to the community description based on the comments so far. These are not necessarily final or set in stone; further discussion is welcome!
Are you clicking the ellipsis on the post as shown on the community page or from the post on its own page? IIRC, mod actions only show up if you visit the post itself.
The grey link button takes you to the comment in the same instance as you are currently using.
The rainbow pentagon button takes you to the comment in the hosting instance (which may be the same if you’re browsing a local community).
I don’t know many situations where one would actually click on them—maybe the latter is useful if you’re worried that federation is being slow and you’re not seeing votes or replies through your local instance. But the two links can be useful to copy (by right-clicking, or long-pressing, or whatever you do to copy links in your browser/app), the former if you want to show somebody else what a comment looks like through your home instance and the latter if you want to link to a post/comment normally.
Since you found this sacred knowledge, it would probably be a good idea to comment on the GitHub issue in addition to here, since that’s where most people will be looking if they get these errors.
I have several, but in addition to some that others have already mentioned, these long-runners are quite good:
Update courtesy of @chaorace@lemmy.sdf.org: kbin.social has enabled DDOS protections that “may cause some issues with the federation”. They will return to normal operation when possible.
No worries. My post hasn’t gotten a clear answer yet either, except for suspicions that it’s issues with load . I just wanted to make sure that if someone does figure out the issue, we get everyone who is asking filled in.
See a very similar conversation at https://lemmy.ml/post/1192168.
PRs for join-lemmy.org now here and here. If I have time later, I’ll also look at a PR to expand what is already in the doc repo a bit.
AFAIK, that’s supposed to work, but it doesn’t for me either. Question raised here. We’ll see what people say.
(My instance does federate with the kbin instance for the magazine I tried to search for, so the problem must be something else. It looks like your instance federates with kbin.social
at least.)
Sentence added to the second-to-last paragraph. Let me know if it looks okay or it you think it could use some edits.
(AFAIK, this is not something that varies by instance.)
Oops. This is Picard about to say “Engage!”, not “Make it so (sew)!”, isn’t it? Oh well.
