Posts from one AP account federate to bsky, but another don't

[minneyar]

Apologies if this is the wrong place for general support, I looked around a little but didn't see any other options.

Details:

• I run a Sharkey instance at https://fuzzyfox.social/ and am testing bridging accounts with bsky.
• I have two accounts on my instance, @[email protected] and @[email protected], both of which follow @[email protected]
• I have a bsky account at @minneyar.fuzzyfox.social that follows @ap.brid.gy, and it has followed both of those accounts via @admin.fuzzyfox.social.ap.brid.gy and @minneyar.fuzzyfox.social.ap.brid.gy
• Posts made from my bsky account show up on the Fediverse, and reactions to it federate across (see https://fuzzyfox.social/@[email protected])
• Posts made from @[email protected] show up on bsky, and reactions to them federate across (https://bsky.app/profile/admin.fuzzyfox.social.ap.brid.gy)
  • As a side note, deleting posts seems to work fine even though bridgy-fed documentation seemed to indicate that wasn't working yet; I've made several more than federated across and then were removed when I deleted them in Sharkey

But my problem is that posts from @[email protected] do not seem to federate to bsky. The profile page exists (https://bsky.app/profile/minneyar.fuzzyfox.social.ap.brid.gy), but none of the posts I've made have appeared, even though posts from @[email protected] and reactions from both accounts seem to be working.

Any ideas why posts aren't going across?

I noticed that the bridged Bsky account is following @[email protected] but not @[email protected]. Did you follow the latter from Bsky before opting in from there or close in time to that?

There's likely some overlap here with #975, in that posts aren't sent to the bridge if there's no bridged account following the opted-in author on the AP side.

Relevant Misskey source: https://github.com/misskey-dev/misskey/blob/2b21c1936212b6e1288d545b71544888e84ce8ab/packages/backend/src/core/NoteCreateService.ts#L669-L700

Oh, interesting... it looked to me as though both counts were following each other, but I unfollowed from the bsky side and then followed again, and now posts are going through!

I forget the exact order of operations here, but I think I did:

1. Followed @[email protected] from Sharkey
2. Followed @minneyar.fuzzyfox.social.brid.gy from Bsky
3. Followed @ap.brid.gy from Bsky
4. Followed @[email protected] from Sharkey

All of that would have been done in fairly quick succession, and I do think I followed from the Bsky side before opting-in from there.

Glad this is working now!

[minneyar]

Hmm, it doesn't seem like it's quite working as expected yet; although an initial post went across, I've tried replying to it on both sides, and neither of the replies reached the other side. For comparison:

Are the replies from accounts that have opted in?

Also, for Bluesky => AP, there's a delay: https://fed.brid.gy/docs#bluesky-delay => Bluesky,

Oh btw @minneyar on an unrelated note, your instance instance fuzzyfox.social is a bit infamous on my side. A ton of other instances have been hammering /.well-known/webfinger?resource=acct:[email protected] on Bridgy Fed for weeks now, averaging 1-2qps total. Any idea why?

[minneyar]

Yep, both accounts have opted in, and the replies are both from my accounts that have followed each other. It's been about an hour now, which I thought would've been long enough for the delay.

But that's weird, I honestly have no idea why that would be happening! I believe the instance.actor account is a bot created by Misskey when joining relays; I've joined several large relays in the past, although I also left a few that I was constantly getting errors from. Could those requests be somehow related to that?

Update: I've made another thread where accounts have been able to reply to each other, but something's still a little funny; in the last post in this thread on Bsky: https://bsky.app/profile/minneyar.fuzzyfox.social/post/3krte75w6fe2u

It has a "1" next to the comment bubble in the interface as though there is a reply, but none is visible, although there is a reply on the Sharkey side (https://fuzzyfox.social/notes/9syocx8kd4j100hn).

Update 2: But I did see the reply show up on my main feed on Bsky, even though it doesn't appear in the thread, so maybe it's fine and I just don't understand how Bsky's interface works.

Missing replies from Bluesky is probably #1011. If that's the main outstanding problem here, I'm going to tentatively merge this into that issue.

[minneyar]

Yep, I think that is the same issue I'm seeing now, so feel free to merge it.

Other instances hammering your webfinger looking for info about my instance also seems like an issue, but this probably isn't the right place to track that...

[snarfed]

Deployed a change for this and #1011, should hopefully fix self replies and other non-notif replies. Thanks again for reporting!
