So I subscribed to a Lemmy community earlier, and according to the site there are three subscribers to that community here on Kbin, yet content is not showing up here.
Original instance: https://sopuli.xyz/c/progmetal/data_type/Post/sort/New/page/1
Lemmy.world: https://lemmy.world/c/progmetal@sopuli.xyz/data_type/Post/sort/New/page/1
Kbin: https://kbin.social/m/progmetal@sopuli.xyz/newest
The former two seem identical as far I bothered to check, with 10 posts in the past 20 hours, but Kbin only has one of them (and it’s not the oldest or the most recent, either, but the second oldest).
Content will only be forwarded after the first person on an instance subscribes to something.
So you will only see posts in a remote magazine that were made after the first person on your instance subscribed to the magazine.
Right, but there have been 3 subscribers since at least yesterday, yet none of the posts since then have shown up. Including the one I made earlier today.
kbin in particular gets overloaded and stuck in federating because of how new it is. This is one of the things @ernest@kbin.social is working on (he’s the creator of kbin and owner of kbin.social)
thank you for this comment! I was so confused if being the first subscriber meant that things would fill in from days ago (which they seem to actually have done in one case) or if it would only be new content since then getting brought in (which also hasn’t happened in some places, where the original continues to see new posts and I don’t get them on kbin)
