Quick lesson for those who aren’t familiar with it. Baraag.net is a loli friendly instance over at Mastodon. Mastodon is basically to Twitter what Lemmy is to Reddit, a federalized social platform. And since it’s federalized, Mastodon and Lemmy users and instances can interact with each other. Or at least they should be able to.

Usually, when you look up a Lemmy instance of Mastodon it looks like this:

Instead, when I try to look up anything hosted on burggit.moe it looks like this:

After messing around a with different accounts and instances I’ve noticed that the problem seems to only come up with Burggit. While Baraag has defederalized from a couple of instances, we aren’t on that list. Nor did we defederalize them, as they are even listed under Linked Instances:

I’ve also tied to look up my own Lemmy accounts through Mastodon and it doesn’t find me:

All in all there seems to be some connection issues and if anyone knows anything about it please share!

Completely unrelated Edit: It feels a lot easier to make posts that contain images on Lemmy, compared to Reddit

    Don’t take this the wrong way, but Lemmy isn’t really made for interacting with things like Mastodon. Sure, people can interact with it, but it’s very convoluted.
