Don’t worry, in this case it’s definitely the fedi backend tech that’s hard to understand, not you,

Thank you. People really didn’t seem to like me pointing this out.

Some Transformers conservationists suggest a more extreme approach, that Transformers should abandon all attempts at re-invention and instead cater exclusively to the old-school collectors. Though attractive, this approach may prove impractical as a long-term solution.)

Brutal

Edit: I think I have fixed the link

he hadn’t

What was the new name? I’ve heard open social web.

Odd, I didn’t think I was there in the first place.

Edit: it’s a joke 🤷‍♂️

Is this really the intended behaviour for linking a Mastadon post?

That’s unfortunate, because some of us were using that term before Threads existed.

Thought so, but there does seem to be some confusion surrounding this so clarity always helps.

Currently Piefed communities can be followed by Lemmy instances but not the other way around.

You mean using your tool, or overall?

It’s run by an instance admin. I wanna say lemy.lol?

even though next to it the status says “disabled”.

I believe that just means piefed.social isn’t participating in the service.

Edit: is that right, @iso@lemy.lol?

Lemmy Federate also says this:

1: Threadiverse refers to Fediverse software that implements “FEP-1b12: group federation”. For example, Lemmy, Mbin, Guppe, NodeBB and others…

Maybe try to get a piefed namedrop there?

No, it’s narcotics officer.

That too. Short for narcotics officer. But can also generally mean to snitch now in slang.

Edit: usage example: to narc on someone

“don’t narc on me bro”

“don’t let Jeremy find out, he’s such a narc”

Because of confederates?

Mbin “Lemmy but also Mastadon”

Edit 2: and oops, apparently editing a poll to say this erases all of the votes. Welp, we are learning!:-P Sorry about that!

Wow, someone should make a bot for awareness or something.

Your whole attitude has been bad faith from the beginning. I think your curiosity would have gone over a lot better had you stopped before saying “Or is this just wish-fulfillment hogwash?”

I don’t see why you had to start off so combative.

The review goes over some of the methodology.

and believe it on pure subjective opinion.

I’m not saying that.

Edit: if you’re saying it’s based on nothing then I expect you to have looked into it, yes

I didnt downvote you. I’m not going to do research for you. Linking a book review should be enough to prove it wasn’t pulled out of this air.

pure vibes
