!Friendica Support Apparently, people following my loma.ml #friendica account from pixelfed.social (#pixelfed) don't see recent posts of mine. Who to talk to to learn why? @Matthias/E ? @dansup ?
@Kristian@dansup@Matthias/E none at all? I don't know Pixelfed that well, but I think it only shows posts with pictures in them? At least that is what happens for my account over at @utzer ~Pixelfed~ (my test account).
@utzer ~Friendica~ I tried that myself and the last post I see there is dated July 24; there are three or four posts with images attached missing even when following myself. It generally seems to work once in a while, but at the moment, something is not right. I can very well see these posts looking at the account from Mastodon so it doesn't seem to be a general issue on loma.ml side.
@dansup@Matthias/E@utzer ~Pixelfed~
@utzer ~Friendica~ Yes, as far as I can tell. At least they show up like that when searching for and looking at my friendica profile through Mastodon...
@dansup@Matthias/E@utzer ~Pixelfed~
@Kristian@dansup@Matthias/E@utzer ~Pixelfed~ hmm yeah, I also can just see the sunflower as the first photo over @utzer ~Pixelfed~, but maybe it just did not end up on the server.
You should see all photo posts if you follow your #Friendica account I assume, but it seems that is also not 100% sure.
So maybe there is more to it that Pixelfed needs to display a post? What does @pixelfed need in order to show posts?
@Matthias/E Yeah, that's what I see too but I think this delivery used to be faster in the past? Seems lagging behind four days by now...?
@dansup
@Matthias/E Hmmm that's slow. Especially a lot slower compared to my Mastodon environment.
@dansup Is there any way to debug what's going on?
@Matthias/E Ah ok. Thanks, wonder what you'll see with this one. πŸ™‚
@dansup
@Matthias/E@Kristian I think Pixelfed is particular what posts it takes... maybe picky with a fuzzy logic what it accepts? I wonder what is the requirements for posts to be accepted?

Is there anything like that @pixelfed?
@utzer ~Friendica~ Would be interesting to know, yes. Problem being: I also do have some contacts only on pixelfed, and for those, this is ... slightly unreliable at the moment. Things being at least a tad predictable would greatly help.πŸ˜‰
@pixelfed@Matthias/E
@Kristian maybe it is just an issue with the @pixelfed UI, it is kind of non intuitive for me, but well I only use Friendica and a little Mastodon, so maybe I am just not used to it. I just failed to get the URL to my profile from Pixelfed. πŸ˜›

@Matthias/E
@Kristian I also find it strange that posts over at @pixelfed do not show the reshares and likes that I can see on Mastodon and Friendica. @Matthias/E
@utzer ~Friendica~ Well yes, pixelfed UI has some special behaviours too, but in this particular case, I don't really see a difference between older and newer posts, between those that show up and those that simply don't. And I have no real recommendation for my contacts, apart from using Mastodon or Friendica instead of pixelfed, which of course not everyone wants.πŸ˜‘
@pixelfed@Matthias/E
I will investigate, just checked and the most recent post from loma.ml on pixelfed.social is 3 hours old (https://loma.ml/display/373ebf56-1362-e961-9f4b-835532256224)
@pixelfed Is there anything that can be done to support that here...? In example, did

https://loma.ml/display/373ebf56-5662-e8d3-62d0-dbf694736886

... from yesterday make it to pixelfed.social? Any idea why it doesn't show up there?
