Found it now, crosspost detection actually happens in the frontend. It only works if posts have the same url and are shown on the same page.
Opened an issue, but it will likely take a while to fix.

So the problem only occurs after you use “Hide Post”? That might be part of the problem, I suppose that deduplication only considers posts that are visible to you. Though I cant find the corressponding code right now to confirm it. Best if you open an issue in the lemmy repo.
I see, that is understandable.


Yes I don’t doubt that you were having this problem, another post was also complaining about it a few days ago. It’s just that I cant think of any reason why this would happen if the image urls are identical.
I was asking Rimu, but good to get confirmation that it’s working for you at least :)
Did you receive my email from last Thursday? Seems there might be some delivery problem.
Good idea, adding this to Lemmy.

Here are the posts on lemmy.ca, they both have the same image url and are also shown as crossposts:
So these should be grouped together without any problem, not sure why it would fail.


This is a known bug in lemmy-ui. Looks like the fix was not backported to stable yet.

Edit: Fixed in #3968, will be included in the next 0.19 release.


Yes but apparently its not working for some reason. My first guess is that these posts have identical looking images, but they are actually loaded from different urls.


I cant find these duplicate posts, can you share the URLs that you were viewing? Is it possible that these identical images actually have different URLs?
You can subscribe to Peertube channels from Lemmy since a very long time. Recently there has been a problem with federation on the Peertube side, but that will be fixed soon.
If any Activitypub platform sends messages to an actor which they arent addressed to, thats clearly a bug.
Thing is that we dont have any information about someone who visits joinlemmy, other than the IP address which gives the location, and Accept-Language HTTP headers. So it attempts to give useful suggestions with that limited info.

Looks like youre right, I’m removing it.
There are multiple defaults on https://join-lemmy.org/
Its already solved, you get an automatic instance suggestion here: https://join-lemmy.org/
This is wrong, Lemmy doesnt send private messages to followers.
