I’m so glad you pointed this out. I did not have this enabled on mine and I forgot about this option completely. I just enabled it.

Yes!

I have a Peertube server, and I’ve requested to follow tilvids, and they denied my request, and they also do not follow my Peertube server. I think one issue with tilvids may be that they essentially choose not to federate, and therefore you won’t find much because of this.

I just searched for “Gaming” on my Peertube server and I seem to get a non-ending list of servers. Unfortunately, one column wide, but a lot. When I search for King’s Quest, I am also getting a seemingly unending stream of videos.

I follow every Peertube server I can that is clearly not fascist, primarily NSFW, NSFL, etc.

Maybe you just need to find a server that is more federated with other Peertube servers.

I use Firefox. I don’t have this issue. FWIW.

I’m not trying to sell it. It is what it is. I’m just providing information about Friendica for those interested. I know I was always curious about it.

Nope. Locked inside a VPC with only one VPS allowed to communicate with it.

BTW, there is a community that you can join from Lemmy, Piefed, or MBIN, that supports my-place.social: https://feddit.online/c/my_place_social

Friendica doesn’t use the “!” notation. This is only a notation that a Lemmy, Piefed, or MBIN instance understands.

Friendica instead uses the familiar account notation used by Mastodon, Sharkey, Misskey, etc. It sees the Lemmy community as a user that is also a group.

If you want to follow, for example, the “asklemmy” community at lemmy.world, in the “Add New Contact” box, just enter : asklemmy@lemmy.world, and then click the “Connect” button, and it will find it, and you can follow it like any other account. Friendica will recognize it as a “Group”, as opposed to an individual account, and it should show up in your Groups section.

Let me know if this works.
