There are some Fediverse services which are incompatible or don’t work that perfectly with each other (e.g. Lemmy on Mastodon). So I was curious on why that could be a problem with ActivityPub compatible software in general. I mean, apparently just implementing ActivityPub may not be enough.

And if there are some Lemmy devs reading, what are some technical difficulties for Lemmy on that regard? Thank you for making this awesome piece of software btw!

    Thanks. I shall have a look. It is an Akkoma instance-of-one with only me on it, so I am the admin.

      Hmm…found the setting alright, but it was already on “off”, so I guess it is something else then.

        This is what that settings panel looks like for ActivityPub, within Akkoma.

        Just to double check, were you trying to follow a group or a person? Because you can only follow lemmy group accounts from #microfedi accounts

          Pretty sure it is a group. I can search for it, and see its “profile” page, which is the same profile as over here in Lemmy. Only shows “Request Sent!” since yesterday when I tried to add it.
