If you have, or want to post a new community, you might want to add it to Lemmy Federate too. This way loads of servers’ bots will automatically subscribe, and the communities’ posts will show up in anyone’s “All” feed on the participating servers (of which there are loads).

    The Discuss.Online instance uses lemmy federate for all communities. This shouldn’t be necessary for anyone already on Discuss.Online.

      I actually manually added some discuss.onlime communities. If they were already on there, it wouldn’t let me add them. So apparently it’s not working.

        Thanks! I’ll look into it and see if I can find anything amiss!

          It was linked with fediseer and was configured to only work with endorsed instances. I’ve disabled the fediseer option. I hope it works better now!

        Communities on Lemmy Federate are updated every 24-48 hours. You can re-add existing communities to force immediate update. So it’s a valid action.

          Thanks! After I updated my configuration, I saw that the communities were queued for processing. I’ll keep an eye on it.
