Happy to hear! We are still figuring out how to use rikka, so that will probably happen on that community once we’ll have a look at it

I agree that crossposts (be it the same community or not) should be visible from All / Local / Subscribed feeds.

It is currently not the case (only one post is showed, I never understood which one was selected) the other post is completely invisible, this hides conversation which might happen in two places at the same time

Ideally there would be an indication about the crossposts in the feeds themselves (rather than at the post level like currently) to avoid this

Funnily enough, I just started a very similar thread with links to the GitHub issues: https://pawb.social/post/13418103?scrollToComments=true

!fedigrow@lemm.ee for people on other instances

Two two squares next to the star icon on the web interface allow you to crosspost.

Apps have that feature too but it’s app dependent

You can subscribe to Lemmy communities from Piefed, so I guess it works wherever the community is hosted

Fyi, piefed has such feature

Feel free to use !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Oh yeah, probably! Feel free to join us on !fedigrow@lemm.ee , we discuss between people trying to keep communities active

I’m probably in the same range. Trying to keep this whole thing alive

You can do a classic search on the web interface with you as the author and keywords

If you send personal data to a mailing list with hundreds of members, can you ask them to delete that email?

Email receivers get a copy of the email, in a similar fashion to Lemmy.

Also, the latest Lemmy version allows for local communities, where content does not federate

Thanks for pointing it out.

When you send an email to someone, how can you delete it once they have it?

It’s a similar issue here.

Your instance still has to update, that feature appeared in 0.19.4

FYI, I posted on !youshouldknow@lemmy.world about this topic: https://sopuli.xyz/post/15756394

Piefed has great filters

Good point

Towns also merge where population gets too low to stay sustainable separated

What are the issues with Mbin and microblogging? Some toots are not accessible?

Fragmentation exists and depends on how many users are interested to discuss a topic.

Of course tech communities are thriving, they are the common denominators for most of the users on Lemmy.

On the other hand, if we had !football@lemmy.world , and people also posting to !soccer@lemmy.world, splitting the tiny community there is, wouldn’t you want everyone to just go to one place to keep it alive, rather than have 50% of low activity on either side?

That’s why I’m still posting to some LW communities even though I’m not a fan of having communities there.

There are only so many people interested to talk about active communities, so I create the weekly post to discuss about active communities on !newcommunities@lemmy.world , because it’s more important to get visibility for communities than to avoid this community being on lemmy.world.

I could have it on !communitypromo@lemmy.ca too, but that would mean asking everyone to comment twice, and realistically that’s not going to happen.

Being able to move away from a community thanks to federation does not mean every community should be duplicated, that’s counterproductive.
