Hi!
I spawned my own instance of lemmy on my server and I discovered new things about how lemmy and federation works, and I have a lot of doubt. I don't know exactly if those doubts are problems of my implementation of if they are normal, so!
- My main account is on lemmy.world and I see that new posts from communities I follow show up before on lemmy.world and then on my instance. Is it normal?
- With comments happens the same thing and they are slower to "sync". Why?
- If a community has been never discovered from the search form with the full format !community@instance, it will never appear on my instance. This means that is not possible to search for an argument (i.e. steam deck) and finding all the posts and communities about it. Is this normal or a feature that we/you would like to see in future/is adaptable to the concept of the fediverse? Because if I am on a big instance with a lot of users maybe I found that specific community or post, but on smaller instances like mine it will never appear If I don't know the exact name.
- I created a community on my instance and subscribed it from lemmy.world but I don't see any post nor are they in sync. Why? https://lemmy.world/c/announcements@lemmy.g97.top vs https://lemmy.g97.top/c/announcements.
- From my instance I am unable to follow lemmy.ml communities (they are pending, usually on lemmy.world the pending status is faster)
- I am unable to search for communities on Kbin.social, and when I try I see this log message of type "couldnt_find_object: error decoding response body: missing field
properties at line 1 column 206" from my docker instance:

- I have a lot of warnings in the lemmy log of type "Error encountered while processing the incoming HTTP request: lemmy_server::root_span_builder: Header is expired" such as:
2023-06-20T21:58:12.484449111Z 2023-06-20T21:58:12.484275Z WARN Error encountered while processing the incoming HTTP request: lemmy_server::root_span_builder: Header is expired 2023-06-20T21:58:12.484510012Z 0: lemmy_server::root_span_builder::HTTP request 2023-06-20T21:58:12.484517559Z with http.method=POST http.scheme="https" http.host=lemmy.g97.top http.target=/inbox otel.kind="server" request_id=caf194c5-cac3-4c37-a29c-577d65deb050 http.status_code=400 otel.status_code="OK" 2023-06-20T21:58:12.484525578Z at src/root_span_builder.rs:16 2023-06-20T21:58:12.484530286Z LemmyError { message: None, inner: Header is expired, context: "SpanTrace" }
I have more questions/doubt but for now this is enough I think! Thank you!
OMG this scared me. I thought I was "enough" protected
