Okay, so in Friendica, you can give your posts titles — which is awesome, makes it feel more like a blog potentially if you wanted to use it that way. But those titles don't work along with text in Mastodon, and maybe other ActivityPub settings, so unless you want your post to only be a hyperlink title to the microbloggers, you gotta just do the text thing. Which is fine I guess.

I'm still not actually sure if my profile picture is showing up for anyone but me. On my Mastodon account, I can't see it, which is odd. I wonder if it'll refresh at some point.

Oh, it's working for me now. I guess the servers just hadn't shared you yet. Yours, that is, not mine. How did you set your profile picture? Upload or link?

No posts is normal, it's just how federation be. Try posting something now, it should come through.

@Comrade Ferret I set it with an upload. Maybe uploading/reuploading yours? I posted, we see if it comes through or not hehe

Tried again. Now to get the dang MSMTP shit to work... I set up a Mailu server and while I can access the admin control panel through the Cloudflare tunnel I have set up for its HTTP and HTTPS ports, I can't seem to get the mail account to resolve in Thunderbird. The alternative is just using my Disroot account as an admin account for Friendica but I can't seem to get that working either.

@Comrade Ferret Ohh yehh it can be rly annoying to set up

Do you have an MX record set up in the DNS? I checked for workersofthe.world and didn't see anything

Feel free to Matrix msg me ofc

in reply to Comrade Ferret

Yeah, I did. I just removed it now, but maybe I did it wrong? I'll just message you.

Also still can't see my goddamn profile pic. I think I just have to wait for the Mastodon server (and others) to requery us. sucks.
