Are Channels Working?


!New To Friendica I have tried to make some channels. Attached is a screenshot of the settings for an example channel.

Seems as if they should work, but posts only occasionally show up in them. And the few posts that have appeared over the last couple weeks don't seem to have a common element to them, i.e. they are not from any particular instance.

I'm wonder what is going on and whether I can fix it.

Mastodon/Bluesky bridge should work the same for Friendica.

But there is more. There is a Friendica-specific "bridge" to Bluesky, which connects your Bluesky account to Friendica. This makes Friendica a Bluesky client, so you will be able to interact with any Bluesky account (not only these who opted in to federation to Mastodon) - as you will interact with them as a Bluesky user.

Go to Settings → Social Networks. Do you see "Bluesky Import/Export"? If not, ask your admin to add it.

The same thing can be possible with Tumblr (which does not even federate!)
