Hi. I have an account on Lemmy.ml and I am trying to follow [email protected]. There should be posts as I can see them when I access the community on lemm.ee but when I open it through Lemmy.ml it doesn’t show the posts but I can see comments when I switch to comment mode. Does anybody know why this is the case? Or is this intended and is rollercoaster blocked on Lemmy.ml?

That is how federation works. You're probably the first one to have followed that community. Though if you did subscribe to the community, the first 20 posts should be fetched. What do you mean by "comment mode" btw?

Oh and the community tagging format is: !<community.name>@<instance.tld>, so for this community: [email protected]

I did subscribe but I still can’t see any posts. Does it take some till they get fetched. It’s not an issue at all if it needs some time. I am just trying to learn how it works and what it behaves :)

When I check that community in lemmy.ml, I can see them though? Might be something to do with federation delays. You should be able to see the posts now.

Welcome to Lemmy btw. Hope you enjoy your stay.

Still nothing but I checked and funnily enough I can see the posts on Lemmy.ml but only if I am logged out. Maybe there is something wrong with my account. It’s really strange as it’s the only community where this is the case apparently.

Yeah, seems like something to do with your account. I can see the posts with and without my .ml account.

Oh ok thx for the answer. And with comment mode I mean when I access the community on the website I can either select posts or comments. That’s what I meant with comment mode. Sorry if I didn’t use the right term. I haven’t used lemmy that much but I want to switch more to it as Reddit gets more and more shit.
