Fix #10686
🌏 Testing federation locally
When testing federated conversations locally, some additional steps might be needed,
to improve the behaviour and allowing the servers to talk to each others:
occ config:system:set sharing.federation.allowSelfSignedCertificates --value true --type bool occ security:certificates:import /path/to/the/nextcloud.crt occ security:certificates
occ config:system:set allow_local_remote_servers --value true --type bool
Additionally you can enable debug mode that will list local users as federated users options
allowing you to federate with accounts on the same instance. Federation will still work
and use the full federation experience and opposed to the federated files sharing not
create a local share instead.
