Why am I not getting updates from hilariouschaos.com? (ponder.cat)

It looks like they have some kind of whitelist set up, limiting federation to the big instances, which seems like a strange thing for one of the small instances to do.

I think you just answered your own question. If ponder.cat isn't on their white list, content won't federate.

[-] PhilipTheBucket@ponder.cat 2 points 3 weeks ago

Yes. The question I'm asking is, why?

You will probably have to ask hilariouschaos admins themselves (well, on an alt)

That's what I'm doing, although anyone else who happens to know what's going on is free to answer as well. I don't feel like making an alt just to dodge around whatever they're doing.
