I noticed earlier today that @picard@mas.to post about Sweet Darusya isn’t showing on calckey and neither is another post by @toni@lemmy.blahaj.zone. It turns out that if you put a link into URL field when making a new post, it might not show outside lemmy. It means that anyone who follows the group on calckey will not see them and therefore can not boost.

    @I_Like_Books @toni @dana Somewhat annoyingly, pictures attached when you reply in Mastodon do not show up here in Lemmy either. And I’m unable to upload any pictures in Lemmy - get a json error.

    But I see your pictures in Mastodon when this group boosted it (strange), and confirm same for me - my review post and Dana’s podcast post both appeared in my feed boosted by the group. Don’t know about Calckey, instance having major slowdowns so not checking much in the evenings.

      @I_Like_Books @toni @dana Followed the group in Akkoma so will report on there next time a post is added with URL - my understanding is old posts do not get populated when first followed, or something, so need to wait for a new one with URL.

      Oh and still can’t reply to most posts in Lemmy, hence here from Mastodon.
