“The magazine from the federated server may be incomplete. Browse more on the original instance.” - why does this appear and how can I turn it off? I cannot log in to other servers to post

    @T156 This is very odd then; I thought this was meant to be all linked together, albeit on different servers. I didn’t see any notifications for your post, I had to manually find it in my profile.

    So… if I want to post anywhere else I have to sign up for more accounts, which may result in needing lots of them with different user names etc? I don’t get what this federation thing is then if it’s all not linked together properly. I saw the explanation that Gmail doesn’t need an Outlook account to message them, yet here I do?

    I also get this when I click the error-looking link: 404: FetchError: invalid json response body at http://lemmy:8536/api/v3/site? reason: Unexpected token ‘T’, “Timeout oc”… is not valid JSON

      It probably just takes some time. To catch up, even before errors and things come into play.

      Yes, this server is having some problems with the latest Lemmy early update, which is probably why notifications aren’t showing properly.
