i think if lemmy is going to include micro-blogging, it should be differentiated and obvious. mixing into existing communities is just going to increase user confusion.

the darkest

no. the verse just isnt designed like that. you subscribe to remote content, you ingest remote content. its not laid out for you to discover the same content in remote sites.

the fediverse is not a simple ‘replicate all content everywhere’

its a bunch of servers that can subscribe to similar content from eachother as requested

when they get that content, they can do (display it) however they want.

find a remote instance that was potentially subscribed the community in which the post did live.

for example a community named ‘eyesuck’

if it was community was something like: deadinstance.com/c/eyesuck

you could theoretically go to lemmy.world/c/eyesuck@deadinstance.com to see those threads… again, assuming lemmy.world was subscribed to ‘eyesuck’

this feels like zelda fell into an alternate, mcdonalds-centric universe

they could with an alt on an mbin, like https://moist.catsweat.com

mbin federates downvotes… forgot that kbin is kinda behind now

kbin maybe, but mbin federates downvotes https://moist.catsweat.com

you can check out who is doing the downvoting on mbin/kbin instances. its public.

i checked a few and it always seems pretty random

in america, we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway

subscriptions are per-community

hahahah this is the first time in 15 years i think ive ever, literally ever, saw that someone thought reddits search was ‘good’

and maybe it has improved since i dumped teh site, but it just struck me as aboslutely hilarious. it was one of their gigantic failures… that google had indexed reddit better than reddit.

why dont you ask lemmy after theyve had more than decade to work on their search… or ya know, when they hit version 1.0

as far as i know, most (if not all) moderation actions are not federated.

that community is local to Lemmmy, despite the content coming from somewhere else. that lemmy community would be moderated by a lemmy account.

and thats kind of the point. instances get to self-content-control. that said, remote management of your post is a thing… so you can delete it, edit it, etc.

content creators… ‘posters’, would not automatically be moderators of a community because they posted some content into it.

it would be a local lemmy account, should it have one. the moderation is local.

they swapped this over the summer to gain compatibility.

i hoping was ernest would add the option for downvotes., but he has not. I dont appreciate devs making decisions for admins, and it would be nice if more of the protocol was represented as at least optional.

nope, you were rigt, i was wrong.

mastodon likes -> 'bin boosts

lemmy upvotes -> 'bin upvotes lemmy likes/shares -> 'bin boosts lemmy downvotes -> fuckin nowhere

i am kinda disappointed, to be honest. i want all 3.

i thought the protocol allows for all 3… upvotes, downvotes and ‘likes’

there would be no overlap on a technical level. they are already completely compatible, even if its not fully implemented. kbin/mbin call this ‘boost’

pinky

the hostname+domain to use for the instance. would require registration (if not a using an already registered subdomain) and associated certificates. impossible to change once you start federating… like a house street address.

its inevitable. just like wordpress sites. but the fediverse is still young. its going to take some time to work out the mod tooling, domain handling, etc.

i know lots of people get all butthurt about csam and piracy, but its just moderation like any other forum.
