you are accessing the Lemmy admin page through the official Lemmy UI, correct?

Correct.

do you mind sharing (if there are any) error logs of the Lemmy backend?

I’ve got no “error” lines, but outside of “trace”, “debug” and “info”, I have the following “warn” line :

WARN Error encountered while processing the incoming HTTP request: pan_builder: InboxTimeout: InboxTimeout
   0: lemmy_server::root_span_builder::HTTP request
           with http.method=POST http.scheme="https" http.host=blog.kaki87.net http.target=/inbox otel.kind="server" d432-40fa-a865-6690f61e11dc http.status_code=400 otel.status_code="OK"
             at src/root_span_builder.rs:16

Btw you might want to close the registrations. They are open right now.

Indeed, which is weird, because I’m sure I closed them when I first created the instance. Are settings lost during upgrades ?

Go to the admin page in the lemmy UI and turn on federation. If you selected “Allowlist” or “Blacklist”, select “Open” as the federation mode.

All I see is a “Federation enabled” checkbox that is checked, an “allowed instances” list that is empty, a “blocked instances” list that is empty as well, and a “federation debug mode” checkbox that is unchecked.

I don’t see “allowlist”, “blocklist” or “federation mode”.

Thanks

Check the logs and config.

What should I be looking for ?

How to fix this though ?

Tesseract was the only client that had an in-community search input, compared to all the other clients that require re-entering the community name. That shows how functional it was to me.

I’m looking for third-party instances right now (that’s how I ended up on this post), found one so far (but outdated) : https://lemmy.max-p.me/
