OC PSA: Lemmy Explorer now supports proper linking for non-kbin federated Communities!

Brilliant, thank you very much. That makes finding and subscribing to new communities so easy :-)

Hey, thanks for the tip. If I click on one of the links, and go to, for example:
https://kbin.social/m/aiapps@lemmy.intai.tech

But it says "404 Not Found" what does that mean? Is it just lag, or are we defederated from them, or ...?

@Sinnerman

That's a newly minted issue, check this thread: Federation with some lemmy instances is 404'ing

But sopuli.xyz is on 0.18 and some communities there work and some don't. There has to be something more

Thanks for the info, @frasassi! It's fascinating to see this develop, wish I had more dev ops skills to contribute!

Yeah, I'm getting the same thing on some other communities.

I get the same from anything but kbin.social communities, including lemmy.world, so I don’t think it’s a lack federation.

Some random items will work, and some instances seem to work better than others. I have a pretty good track record from communities on sopuli.xyz and I've managed to subscribe to a few from lemmy.world but it is probably just chance. I haven't been able to get a single community from sh.itjust.works to load despite seeing their users all over the place, federation is obviously working at least somewhat.

Yeah, arkisuomi on sopuli.xyz hasn't worked, but Suomi and a few others have. kbin.social/m/arkisuomi/@sopuli.xyz results in 404. I guess it hasn't been pushed to kbin for some reason. And I obviously can't subscribe
