I made a VERY BUGGY tool to check both "blocked by" and "blocked" of a Lemmy instance in c/lemmy@lemmy.ml

No worries, I'm just trying to learn and looking for tools that can help me support the broader community as a fellow God.

For example, I'm still not sure I've got federation set up correctly because of some funniness around discovery. I think it might actually be the way lemmy.ml is set up.

Any tools that could help admin are just golden so keep cracking.

No luck using it for me.

Edit: Its telling me we're not a lemmy instance, but obv I'm commenting here so federated.> Lemmy@lem

Edit 2: Also says lemmy.world is not a lemmy instance...

Still trying to understand federation (wallstreets.bet)
 

So I got this instance up yesterday and I didn't (still don't) really understand federation.

Does any one have a tutorial or an explainer I could tuck into that can help me figure out how to effectively federate/ connect to other lemmy instances?

For example, I connected to !memes!memes@lemmy.ml. It appears to now be 'federated', in that when I look at 'all communities' on !wsb_memes@wallstreets.bet , then I see posts. Whats weird though, is that they are all 18 hours behind, and have no activity.

I really want to support the growth of the lemmy verse. I think the best way to do this is with unique, niche focused federated instances for 'groups' of specific interests. wallstreets.bet is how I thought I could support that. But I'm struggling with the federation aspect and I'm not sure its working correctly.
