Nothing posted from Lemmy to a Fedia magazine is federating out to that magazine/community on other Lemmy instances. I don’t think it is working for kbin either.

eg. https://fedia.io/m/ukdtt/t/143141/DTT-licence-updates-26-Jul-2023 - posted from feddit.uk to a fedia.io magazine (and has successfully reached the home instance), has not turned up on https://rabbitea.rs/c/ukdtt@fedia.io

Checking other magazines I don’t think this is working properly for any of them, but don’t know if it is just fedia or a wider kbin problem.

Anyone else seen similar?

    Yes, this doesn’t make sense. How I thought it worked is that the originating server would push the new article to the home instance, and the other instances then pull from there (or the home server pushes; whatever, same net effect). If that isn’t how it works, I don’t see how it can work, as every server which posts to a magazine would need to know who subscribes to it. Certainly in the case of Mastodon, it doesn’t have a concept of this, yet can post to communities/magazines and the comments federate out (maybe comments work differently though? There doesn’t appear to be a problem with comments as far as I can tell)
