That would be really nice, up until now I was just subscribing to basically every community and even thought about just setting up one user on the server that subscribes to every community I ever come across but that would be kinda tedious. So if it starts to somehow work automagically for you I would just wait a few more days and see what happens.
The first time federation is a bit slow in the beginning.
Since I don’t know any better place to ask and I also setup my instance on Hetzner maybe some of you could provide me with some input regarding federation. I’m able to search new communities; the way I’m doing it right now is by searching for their handler (this !comunnityName@InstanceName thing) on my instance. For some reason if I haven’t searched for the community before no search results show up but I can switch to the community all list and see the community there. After subscribing to a community everything works nicely, I see posts, comments everything.
But my main question is, if there is a way to federate a server (e.g. lemmy.ml) in a way that I can just click on communities on my server and see every community on the federated servers without having to manually search them first?
This is something that I wasn’t able to grasp from reading the lemmy docs and also didn’t found a satisfying answer to when googleing.
By default they block ports 25 and 465 afaik you can request getting them unblocked after you paid your first invoice and your account is at least one month old. For some reason they aren’t blocking port 587 so you could connect to your mail server via that port if you don’t want to wait for the first month to be over using starttls and after a month switch to 465 with normal tls. And as @mrmanager@lemmy.today already mentioned you shouldn’t use port 25 since you’d be sending your mails unencrypted.
Might be because the average Linux user is way more aware of how useful a crash report can be and therefore actually submitted them. At least most Linux users I know actually read error/ crash messages and not just call someone saying there was some pop-up, I just clicked ok and the game was gone.
