A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Could someone explain what this means? It it like he can see us but we can't see him? I didn't know the Fediverse / ActivityPub could work like that.
Opposite way around. We can see him but he can't see us.
The reason you can't see him is because you're on Lemmy which will only display microblog posts if they're (1) a reply to a Lemmy post, (2) made from kbin/mbin, or (3) replied to by someone from kbin/mbin (not entirely sure about this one).
Ah right, thanks :)
I would agree with your suspicion but it’s got to be said that their public statements are pretty clear: It is coming.

It would be pretty useless as it is. Even for them. Federation only really mattered for a few people (us), most of their userbase doesn't care or know so its not like it was meant to be a hook to lead them in.
