Wait ... how is that link working?? kbin.social has been offline for months.
Edit: Ohhhh ... the name of the community at LW is "eattherich@kbin.social" - now I see.
No, you're right the 1st time. It's eattherich, hosted at kbin. It's a weird side effect of federating. The original instance hosting the comm is gone, but all posts and comments go into the local instance first (in this case, Ozma's posts to .world) to be federated back to the main instance (kbin). Since kbin is gone, that federation ain't happening, and nobody from any other instance can view the content from their home instance. But you can directly view .world's local copy of what it thinks the instance should look like, which contains all of Ozma's contributions.
This is super cool
I don’t think we’ve yet witnessed the full benefits of the distributed nature/federation.
Is it just me or is the sub empty
It's not just you. See my other comment for technical explanation.
Your instance needs to be instructed to fetch it.
E.g., by setting up a subscript' to the community, or viewing individual threads and comments.
The interesting thing here, as the other responder observed, is it's the local copy of a previously-federated community.
I would have assumed that the copies would be read-only from outside the actual instance. But it sounds like you're able to post to the copied-communities too. Lul.
That sounds like something I have no control over but the admins might
It's you.
Given the way federating works, just because you're seeing something doesn't mean everybody else is seeing the same thing you do.
And? I can see content there. Parent commenter can't.
There's a difference between "works for me", and "it's you".
This is on me for reading it as "Is it everyone or just me".
I will leave my earlier comments intact as evidence of my occasional bad reading comprehension.
But I am full!
