Federation should be fixed, etc! (self.main)

Hello all! 👋

A few things to cover here.

First of all, I would like to thank all who donated for their generosity. I don't know if I've said it before, but 100% of the donations are going directly to the hosting costs.

I believe I fixed the issues with federation (it was just a problem in my nginx configuration), so interoperability with mastodon should be working again. Sorry about that! I haven't tested other software, such as friendica and kbin, but I'm hoping they should be working again too.

We've surpassed 2,000 users! 🎉 I love seeing the all engagement! Also, thank you for the reports as well, I would like to keep this instance safe & welcoming to all, and can't do it without your help.

I've also noticed there's a few servers that my e-mail server is not happy trying to send e-mails to. by default it's set up to be fairly picky about the servers it connects to, and I've noticed that it's refusing to deliver to some with self-signed or certs that don't match the domain. I'll be working on getting that resolved in the next few days too.

Last but not least, I've added @[email protected] to help me out with some admin duties. Please give him a warm welcome! I plan on adding a third soon too.

As always, let me know if you have any questions, concerns, suggestions, or whatever.

I'm not sure if this is the correct place to bring this up, but I've noticed a discrepancy in the comment counts between instances. For example, a post on lemmy.ml shows 26 comments, but I only see 21 when viewing it from lemmy.ca. The missing comments seem to be from users from multiple instances including lemmy.ml, kbin.social and lemmy.fmhy.ml

EDIT: People on other instances are seeing the same thing, so it seems to not be an isolated issue.

yeah, it appears to be an issue with the busier instances. hopefully they can resolve this in the next version.
