I set up a new lemmy instance. I can log in and create communities locally.
But I do not see ANY other instances.
I have checked Federation Enabled
I look through my logs and there appear to be no errors.
I check and save, Federation debug mode
but it never stays checked.
I am trying to find the disconnect. Why is my instance not fully federating and why can I not find any errors…
Does anyone have a next step for me, what to look into?
docker-compose logs -f lemmy
Is where I look for logs
Lemmy does not automatically discover communities from other peers, you have to search for them and have at least one user subscribe.
I apologize but I am not following.
On my instance I cannot search other instances.
But here on blahaj I can.
I tried adding instances but I cannot search those (that were added) either.
for clarity, you are searching for communities, right? search for “!cats@sh.itjust.works”
