Hi guys,
There is an “issue” that I’m experiencing lately, and I don’t know why exactly.
Sometimes a user has a question that I would like to answer for them, so I click reply, but then the instance that user is on asks me to create an account. So it’s basically asking me to create another account for that specific instance even though I’m using a Lemmy account to write this post.
My question: Why is this happening, and shouldn’t we be able to react to one another?
Im using:
- Lemmings.world via web for my pc/laptop (I use Mint by the way :P)
- Voyager an client which can be found on fdroid for Android.
- Default UI
I can’t say I’ve ever had that happen to me, so I don’t know what to tell you. But you’ll probably want to add some information to your post, such as:
- Are you on a PC or mobile device
- What browser or app you’re using for Lemmy
- Are you using the default UI or an alternate like Photon or Alexandrite (I don’t know if any of the apps give you a choice or if this is only applicable in a browser)
- Screenshots showing the steps to reproduce the issue
And also what instance the original post is on that you would like to comment to. Could this maybe be some kind of one-sided federation issue? Where posts get federated to your home instance, but replies grom your home instance are not being accepted by OP’s instance?
