That’s a lemmy bug…
Somehow the ‘local’ community gets the hostname extension and it won’t federate or search well anymore
I hope it can get fixed in the DB or somewhere because I feel like asklemmy will be one of the bigger communities.
could it be that they were made by someone from a different instance? so on their end it specified lemmy.world but then resulting in that specification for everyone.
Its a bug. I caused this to happen with one pf my communities by editing it with a remote account.
This causes it to get stuck in a state where its no longer marked as a local community.
This also breaks federation.
Do we know if this can be fixed with an upcoming news release of Lemmy?
Already fixed, but not yet released.
I also get a “subscribe pending” on /c/asklemmy@lemmy.world but all other communities seem to subscribe quickly.
