Why do user profiles have different content/history depending on which instance you view them from? And possible bug with searching (futurology.today)

Futurology.today blocks fewer instances (and is blocked by fewer) than lemmy.world https://github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmy-instances so it can't be that.

Search:

I tried to search this community before posting and when I go to https://futurology.today/c/[email protected] then click the search icon in the top right, it loads a search page https://futurology.today/search that is searching the whole fediverse.

So I click on "community -> all" and type in "fediverse" then click on this community, and it takes me to https://futurology.today/search?type=All&listingType=All&communityId=70&page=1&sort=TopAll. I see "&communityId=70" in the URL but the page still says it's searching the whole fediverse.

Are either of these bugs that I should report on github?

If I do a search from https://futurology.today/search?type=All&listingType=All&communityId=70&page=1&sort=TopAll it does only search this community. But if I use the first link it doesn't.

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]
