Voting on the PieFed roadmap for 2025 is now open!

We've brainstormed a few ideas for where we could focus our development efforts this year and created a post in a community for each idea.

This is the community: !piefed_2025@piefed.social

Now it's up to you to vote on each post to influence the priorities of those ideas! Please upvote those ideas that are important to you, ignore those that do not and only downvote when an idea seems like a counter-productive waste of time and energy.

Vote for as many ideas as you like but be selective. Something like upvote your top 10 ideas and downvote the bottom 5, that kind of thing.

Just a heads up!

There might be a federation issue as I can't seem to see any of the posts even after checking with my 4 accounts (same username on differnet instances)

I tried using:

lemmy.ca

programming.dev

lemmy.blahaj.zone

feddit.uk
- There's nothing technically wrong with the outbox for that community. This can be confirmed from a command-line, by doing:
  curl --header 'accept: application/activity+json' --location https://piefed.social/c/piefed_2025/outbox | jq .
  I was also able to get it from my dev PieFed instance without issue.
  
  So Lemmy is shitting the bed when processing the outbox.
  Possible reason 1: the posts also contain replies in PieFed outboxes (but Lemmy should just ignore that field, and not all posts have replies)
  Possible reason 2: the community is restricted to posts by the mod (but that shouldn't affect things)
  Possible reason 3: "Lemmy reasons"
  
  I thought content simply didn't federate retroactively, but only started when the first user from an instance subscribed the community. I'm probably wrong, but then again this seems to indicate I might be right.

  I'm currently using Voyager so tapping on !piefed_2025@piefed.social redirects me to:
Yeah, as mentioned, Lemmy seems to have made a mess of bringing that community in. It looks like they got the community details - and know that posting is restricted to the mod, but they didn't fetch who the mod is. This meant that posts in the outbox were rejected, and all subsequent activity (that would normally cause them to resolve the missing posts) is being rejected too.
