Pixelfed Not Federating

[will]

@doodlemania2 I was able to see you in mastadon and pixelfed! Anyone have a peertube instance I can test? Also, how can I test Element chat federation?

Thanks guys!

That's great @will ! I think we'll have GNU-Social too fairly soon as it's marked #wip

@will yes I'm testing one here : tube.okcinfo.news

@scooke can't you remote follow them from your instance ?
I agree with the other comment, you can't use Pixelfed as a full blown actor in the fediverse, you can follow other users in your pixelfed instance but any user outside of your instance is a remote follower you can follow from your mastodon account but not from pixelfed.
on the other end, anyone using an activitypub enabled system can follow a pixelfed user.

@will I have the same issue.
There is not a single error in my horizon dashboard, it's active & green, following your own pixelfed user from your mastodon instance work just fine but if you search a profile from another PIXELFED instance anywhere in the fediverse there is no search results

https://pixelfed.social/admin

If you look to your own mastodon or any other identity there is no issue :

it can't neither see a peertube profile.

regarding no errors in Horizon :

There does not seem to be any jobs running, maybe that's why ?

no jobs no failed jobs ?

earlier today I published a photo from my mobile and it went just fine :

My experience is that the app is smooth and fast both on desktop and mobile
I have no idea what's going on but when I search admin@pixelfed.social
in the logs trail you can catch this :

this "verify_credentials" might be where the problem is ?

@rmdes I followed somebody outside my instance.

[doodlemania2]

I wonder if this is a Pixelfed issue, not a Cloudron issue? It seems some types of follows work, others not so much. Thoughts?

[rmdes]

@will Do you mean another pixelfed user or another user from another activitypub enabled service (mastodon, pleroma etc..)

[will]

@rmdes I can't see other users on PixelFed, like browsing their pages.
