    Yeah, cross-posts would be a new post from me, rather than the original from e.g. George Takei, which isn’t ideal.

    I hadn’t really thought about defederation between servers running both Mastodon and Lemmy. I guess that post wouldn’t show up on sh.itjust.works (I’ll have a look if anyone subscribes from there)

        Hmmm, that’s not defederation though. The community’s outbox has the 20 most recent posts in, and that cat gif is currently at number 20. The only way those earlier posts can be there are if someone brought though the community a day or so ago and then didn’t subscribe. If anyone ever does subscribe, I can manually send the rest (and can see if the infosec one fails)

          Hmm, I don’t understand.

          Lemmy World & Midwest Social show the community and the latest post. JustWorks doesn’t show the latest post. Infosec doesn’t show the community. Lemmon doesn’t seem to have an actual homepage, but looks a bit like an RSS feed; the Tails community there 403s.

          Defed Investigator can’t find Lemmon but reports on some communities which are federated with it. Infosec is reportedly federated but doesn’t show the community.

          1.) what’s an outbox (on Lemmy)?
          2.) “if someone brought though the community a day or so ago and then didn’t subscribe.”?
          3.) “manually send the rest”? Also you’re the Lemmon admin?
