Does the first time federation take forever? I’ve already imported my subs. Thanks!
When you subscribe to a community, you only start receiving data from that point on. It doesn’t go and download the history, that’d be very resource intensive on the remote instance. Thus it fetches a handful of posts, and no comments as a preview of the community, and after a couple days of activity is looks mostly normal.
So I just watch the posts and wait for comments to show up?
Yes. Data starts flowing in after you hit the subscribe button.
I see it
See what? I’m not commenting from that instance because I can’t see comments yet sadly
Ahh I see sorry miss understood
no worries :)
Yes federation takes forever when you first start . .

DO NOT WHITE LIST ANY INSTANCE
Thanks! :)
In case it helps, I only had Undetermined as my only language on my profile. Making sure that English was selected made everything show up. But it might have just been an accidental config on my end.
By default all languages should be enabled
They weren’t for me on my fresh install, so something must have happened. Either user or system error. Either way, it’s an easy thing to troubleshoot.
