So I just followed the group @ancientneareast but I can't see the posts as they're on another server. Is there a way around this?
@apkallatu @ancientneareast looks like that’s also the case for me. Please do post if you find a solution
@amaury_h @mattyhari Really? If I navigate to the group it says there are 70 posts but I cannot access them. Just checking I'm doing this right
@apkallatu @mattyhari Since I basically created the group (technically it's more a bot) 2 days ago I am sure there are no more than 15/20 messages with the call to @ancientneareast .
@amaury_h @mattyhari @ancientneareast Ah, interesting! Thanks for clarifying
I think that in fact it counts the retoots/sharing as a message... which totally distorts the count.
@amaury_h @apkallatu @ancientneareast thank you so much for clarifying.
@mattyhari @apkallatu
The older posts do not appear in general in Mastodon... unless someone you follow makes a new sharing of an older post. Also the numbers given by the group page are clearly overestimated, for an unknown reason.
