    can you search for the bot username @monyetbot@monyet.cc in the search box of those other instances?

    if it does not appear, then we’ll very likely need to change bot usernames due to it not being accepted by other instances

    edit: just checked https://lemmy.zip/u/waiter_bot@monyet.cc is okay, so it is not that other instances are auto-rejecting bot users

        maybe instances are rejecting bots that have admin status?

        but that would not really make sense

        it may be a related issue, but as crabby has discovered, the monyetbot user itself is rejected by other instances, and other instances can’t list a user that doesn’t exist in their db as mod

        that’s because all of my new comments have been on this thread, which is opened by monyetbot which other instances consider non-existent, and so all comments on this thread are auto-rejected because the opening poster is rejected

        correction, i also posted in announcements, but that is not federated to lemmy.zip: https://lemmy.zip/c/announcements@monyet.cc

        it is federated to lemmy.world though, and my last comment on there is from announcements
