Subscribe to category from Mastodon - no activity?

Hi Julian, indeed its an upgrade. I figured the general enable switch as well as those privileges:
However, I did not check global privs so far.
-
@Flohack might be the view users privilege needs to be on otherwise other services can't resolve the authoring user and drop the activity...
-
Ok its enabled now, lets see!
-
Paging @flohack@forums.ubports.com ... come in @flohack@forums.ubports.com
-
@julian@community.nodebb.org Ok that seems to work. Writing now from the forum
-
@julian@community.nodebb.org Ok so far so good. But the category still has no posts on "the other side" - any idea how this will happen - only with the next new post?
-
@flohack@forums.ubports.com from Mastodon you can manually "pull in" posts by searching for the post URL (not the topic)
-
@julian@community.nodebb.org ah ok but what does subscribe to category then actually mean? I mean its possible, it shows subscribers in the category settings etc.
-
@flohack@forums.ubports.com subscribing to the category means new topics will be delivered to the follower.
The manual search is just for manually backfilling posts.
-
Ok so, after turning on all the right permissions and subscribing to this category, from now on new stuff should appear right?
-
Let's hope so!
