The short answer is no but the longer answer for what happens in each situation was detailed here: https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/issues/1051
lemmy -> kbin = pretends to send but doesn’t

You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
@HarkMahlberg I assumed it was a default ublock rule and not one you added so I imagine a lot of people might run into this. Well, “a lot” depending on how often a filename’s sha256 hash starts with
ad. At the very least it’s probably good to know about it, even if nothing is changed. But perhaps there’s enough reason to use a different system to name image caches like the name generators a lot of image hosters seem to use. I guess it’s in the devs hands now :) thanks for sharing it
@HarkMahlberg I would consider adding a bug for this to the issue tracker as it seems like a gotcha https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/issues
One thing to keep in mind is they don’t federate with kbin.social; so they can’t see your posts or replies, and can’t reply to you. I believe your upvotes won’t federate (maybe to other instances, but not to theirs at least). Downvotes work the same as they do for any other post as those don’t federate in kbin to begin with. One-sided federation in the fediverse seems like it can be a bit confusing to users, I’m not sure in what case it’s a good idea in since it can be like talking to a void.
I don’t think you have to do anything that extreme, that is, you could just upvote your own post (and if you don’t want to do that, un-upvote it as well, haha). Although… I just clicked the link and lemmy.world appears to be down, at least when I tried, so maybe now isn’t the best time to try to post something to them >.> (edit: actually worked right after that, guess it’s just a bit spotty)
Believe you’re correct. I think cooperaj mentioned it in the issue but they experienced the same thing, when you get the error it does not appear to federate.
It being interacted with, such a upvoting or boosting might make it federate after that. (I think this might actually be linked to https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/issues/875 but am holding off without more proof.) Of course, it being interacted with to get it to federate is difficult on kbin.social where anyone who blocks any domains won’t even see it in the first place :(
One more question if you wouldn’t mind, do you happen to remember if you got an error while posting this thread? Understandable if you don’t; one of the newer kbinmeta posts mentioned getting an error while posting and their thread doesn’t have a domain, but a different thread they posted afterwards does have a domain, so I’m trying to see if there’s a link between getting an error when posting and a post not having a domain
One of our other top CC’s couldn’t see the thread and they’re on kbin.social
This could be this issue https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/issues/1019 which I’m trying to gain visibility on. This thread, as well as some of the others you have posted in SC [1] [2] [3] [4], all do not show a domain. If what I’ve written in the issue is accurate, that means kbin.social users with any domain blocked at all will not be able to see the posts or comments. Removing all blocked domains will fix it. Right now my findings are basically posts are somehow being made with no domain, and if a user blocks any domain at all, doesn’t matter what it is, that will count as true and filter it out. LMK if this helps, trying to gather as much data as I can
Do you mind linking me the image thread if you can find it?
Check out https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/issues/1019 to see if it’s similar to what other people have posted about recently: tl;dr blocking domains appears to filter out posts / comments even when those domains are not involved in the post. I’ll repost what I put in one of the threads:
If posts are disappearing when you’re logged in but not when logged out, it should be something like that: either a language filter, federation turned off, or a blocked community you might not expect filtering it out. You can double check by unblocking domains/magazines to see if any of them return comments, though that might be troublesome with many blocked.
21·1 year agoThis question has plagued my mind for decades, because the main character of the tv show Eureka, Jack Carter, always answered his radio/phone with this. And to this day I have no idea what words he was saying or why he always said it. I had started to think he was saying “gofer” which is
An employee who runs errands in addition to performing regular duties.
But that seemed a bit weird for the sheriff to say
Just the clarify, you haven’t been able to solve it yet, correct? Just as a recap, I was able to get the pictured thread to show no comments by:
- blocking
m/askamericansor - blocking
d/lemmy.worldor - blocking
d/kbin.social
I was not able to get comments to change on the thread by
- turning federation off
- setting a language filter to only any language besides english
I wonder what else I could be missing. I do see you have plugins but I can’t imagine it’s that, if it resolves when you log out, it must be a user setting somehow. I would consider making note of all the blocked domains / magazines you do have, maybe lift them for a second and reload the thread, and see if that fixes it. Perhaps there’s a domain I’m not imagining would cause this.
- blocking
Double check you aren’t blocking the magazine https://kbin.social/m/askamericans (if the no entry symbol is lit up red next to subscribe, or you can find the full list under https://kbin.social/settings/blocked/magazines ). I know that may be unlikely but that’s the only way I can think of at the moment to show No comments (verified that has said effect of showing no comments while keeping comment count). I know it’s not federation turned off and it’s not language filter settings as neither had that effect
Just to add another concrete example, I saw a toot recently that
.afmay be risky, as some countries are beginning to implement embargoes; the person who had a domain there may be losing it soon
1·1 year agoHe did say it would be “federated this week” but in the next comment in that issue he made he said that changed “but it turns out it’s not easy, and I wouldn’t want to make such a big change hastily”. I don’t think anything has happened since. I definitely almost never see any reduces over here on a different kbin, so I think it’s still the same. There is still some discussion in that issue, someone just posted they have a PoC of doing it in a fork for instance.
There’s some relevant discussion here and in the thread linked by ernest in that post here. I don’t want to give any wrong information, but I don’t think activitypub has a spec for downvotes/reduces/dislikes, just likes and shares (boosting). So on mastodon dislikes definitely aren’t federated. I believe for lemmy, they federate between lemmy instances that have them enabled, but for kbin they are local to your instance.
I am not toooooooo sure; I’m not familiar with lemmy myself. You could try adding the scheme before it, so: https://lemmy.world/c/beebutts or perhaps go about it the long way with url linking
[lemmy.world/c/beebutts](https://lemmy.world/c/beebutts)lemmy.world/c/beebutts
One thing I’m trying to keep an eye on is sup. Not much information at all besides a snippet of 1 to 1 encrypted messaging for activitypub, but the tidbit of working with any fediverse account is interesting. Potentially that could help deal with the different fediverse implementations of messaging. Of course, like I said, this is just me making up assumptions, it could not work the way I envision it at all. The creator just posted something 5d ago about it with “soon” though, so I’m hoping to read more about it
