New episodes don’t show up in Mastodon #8

Closed frederik-elwert closed 6 months ago

frederik-elwert commented 6 months ago

Unfortunately, I cannot explain why this fails behind the scenes, so I can only describe the phenomenon:

I subscribed to the podcast @5893302@ap.podcastindex.org from my Mastodon account (@felwert@fedihum.org). But although a new episode has been published, it does not show up on the Mastodon feed (at https://fedihum.org/@5893302@ap.podcastindex.org). The last (and only) episode shown here is Episode 5.

If I go to the AP page at https://ap.podcastindex.org/podcasts?id=5893302, I can navigate to the outbox at https://ap.podcastindex.org/outbox?id=5893302&page=true, and interestingly the new episode (episode 6) does show up there. I lack the background knowledge to understand why this doesn’t propagate to my instance.

I fixed a bug with the bridge's handling of Mastodon authorized fetch yesterday. See if this fixes the issue. Also, if you create a toot that mentions @5893302@ap.podcastindex.org in it with the text "latest", it should send you the most recent episode. Test that and report back.

Thanks! I tested the "latest" trick and that worked. The podcast has quite a low frequency, so I'll have to wait and see if the next episode also shows up normally.
