Articles on self-hosted servers not propagated? (lemmy.world)

I set up a self-hosted instance yesterday, so far it runs fine. I can subscribe from there to communities hosted on other instances, I can comment from my instance and the comments show up on other instances.

However, I subscribed to https://lemmy.world/c/lemmyworldtest from my own instance to test if my posts will be propagated, and that seems not to work (yet?).

Is this a known problem? Would the upstream instance subscribe to my instance for this to work? Or is this a bug in my configuration?

Sorry... I am not understanding fully, I think. So you want to see if posts on your self-hosted instance will propagate to other instances? In this case, only if someone on the other instance has searched for your community.

The community is originally from lemmy.world, I subscribed on my own instance. In my example it was just "lemmyworldtest", but a proper use-case would be to subscribe to https://lemmy.world/c/techsupport on my own instance and post an article to that community. Since the community has its home on lemmy.world, I would expect/need my post to be visible there in order to actually receive some support.

Also, at the time I'm writing this, your comment to my post is not yet visible on my own instance although I'm subscribed there as well.

You might want to link your self hosted instance so we can get a better sense of what’s going on here.

Ok, here is a link to the community replicated to my own server: EDIT: https://lemmy.pathoris.de/c/lemmyworldtest@lemmy.world
