Hello! I recently turned up a Lemmy server but it appears there’s an issue communicating with other servers. Curling activity json is working for local users, communities, and posts. Does anyone see anything off? Trying to see a user or community apart of another server results in a 404 and vise versa.
For example viewing this community from my server results in a 404
https://lemmy.kutara.io/c/[email protected]
Viewing my account from this server results in 404 as well

Was half-way through typing exactly that and you beat me to it :)
Heh, it’s kinda unfortunate this explanation is needed anyway, I do hope they’ll streamline this process somehow in the future.
Yeah, visiting that URL should cause a loading animation while it does the search in the background, and then show you the result. Quite a big and complex change to make, but it would improve the user experience tremendously.
That would be a start, but the fact that you have to search at all for it to show up is kinda unintuitive. Honestly I’m not entirely sure what would be a better method, though.
