There was an api error: No Instance found matching provided domain. Have you remembered to register it? (yiffit.net)
 

I've been noticing a bug whenever I go to the page of an instance that doesn't yet exist in the database:

Usually after refreshing, the page shows as usual (assuming after Fediseer was able to download/parse the instance's /api/v1/instance or /.well-known/nodeinfo-2.0 or whatever). Anyone else encounter this? I'm on Firefox 118.0.2 (64-bit) on Fedora release 38 (Thirty Eight)

Plus a funny devtools thing I saw for the spinner lol: https://streamable.com/lgg7xy

Most fediverse drama is caused by local and federated timelines in c/fediverse@lemmy.ml

I don't really know much about how Lemmy works under-the-hood, but from my previous experience with running Akkoma and Mastodon instances, you can have your instance subscribe to a relay to have messages from other instances pushed to yours. They're only really useful for smaller (<1,000 users) instances.

In this context, since I don't know if Lemmy instances can be subscribed to a relay (I don't see why not since it is ActivityPub under-the-hood after all), I'm not entire sure.
