Yeah, it's still refusing to federate. Had some issues with it lately, I've noticed both shitposter instances and NCD since ~when we flipped the switch to let Darb and Dutch's FSE federate better. Can't federate anything we aren't tagged in from specific instances/users, it's weird. -

@Sui @DutchBoomerMan @p This little setting fucks everything up. You'd assume it only applies to API (viewing posts in browser), but it cripples federation as well. It's documented nowhere, and to make matters worse people like @coyote used to spread misinfo in their "fedi privacy guides".

I think it was one that mentioned "verified" but I'm just a lowly 🧹 and haven't fucked around with anything myself yet. When instances have different settings for it, it seemingly nukes federation at random? likes this. -

@Sui @DutchBoomerMan @p Yes, if it gets enabled, other servers regularly won't be able to fetch posts, so the only posts you'd see is from users on that instance that are followed by your own users. Recently goreslut.xyz had it enabled (I managed to convince them to disable it), apparently, SPC has it enabled as well, a couple moths before poast had it enabled too. -

That's probably the main issue we're having then, we flipped it on before christmas. Is it likely to get patched so it works regardless, or do we have to try and get all the dark fedi admins to agree on what to set? likes this. -

@Sui @DutchBoomerMan @p Probably latter. Telling them to flip a single switch in adminfe is easier than telling them to apply a patch. -

@Sui @DutchBoomerMan @p I think @Moon, in fact, tried to fix this before. Not sure what visible:always part is about, though.

@mint @DutchBoomerMan @Sui @p allow me to reword in my own words so I can confirm I understand:
if nobody on server B follows anybody on my server A, then server B's fetches of public activities from my server A will fail? -

@mint @DutchBoomerMan @Sui @p What is happening here is I wanted the ability to make some users' posts always visible without authentication even if everything else is locked down. likes this. -

@Moon @DutchBoomerMan @Sui @p Yes. It might, in fact, fail even if you have followers from server B, as long as the signed fetch actor's key aren't cached. The server doesn't even attempt to fetch them, instead immediately returning "Not found". Sexy Moon likes this. -

@mint @DutchBoomerMan @Sui @p OK, so potentially I could fix this by just having a synchronous check for the requester's key. -

@Moon @DutchBoomerMan @Sui @p Alternatively just flip the switch on an image above back into disabled state. Takes literally a second. -

@Moon @DutchBoomerMan @Sui @p The bug here is the whole fact that the settings which should only apply to API access affect federation as well. Your solution is just to make this switch into a duplicate signed fetch option. -

@mint @DutchBoomerMan @Sui @p that would be a loophole around the setting if you really did want the setting. -

@Moon @DutchBoomerMan @Sui @p A loophole that can be patched with an already existing "authorized fetch mode" option. -

@Moon @Sui @p There are dozens of way of getting the posts that are as low effort as directly grabbing them from your instance's client API. I'm sure you heard about boardreader shenanigans. -

@Moon @Sui @p P is in the thread, so he could tell you more. The gist is that there was as scraper that went on FSE's TWKN and attributed every federated post to FSE, which caused FBI to contact him because of fedpost on third-party server. -
