Setup new node - cannot connect to outside world
Hi friends, I hope you can help me with this - first my excuses for asking such rookie questions because I'm totally green to this stuff ;)
I have my profile now on friendica.world, but with another prophile I'm trying to setup a new node with Elestio on a Scaleway server. 001.fediversenederland.nl/
All fine, but the server does not seem to connect to the outside world. There are no channels visible, and when searching it finds only posts from the same server (only one account yet, which will be mine, with only one post ;) ). In the admin settings the global guide is set to dir.friendica.social and this shows as a link in the welcome-widget, but if I click it, it opens in a new window.
This could be a bug in the installation but it can of course easily be a very basic setting or configuration that I overlook. Any ideas? Thanks a lot in advance!

How long your server has been up? If not for long, I would suggest that you just wait for couple days. When I set up mine, it seemed that there was nothing at first, but gradually more stuff became visible.
