Good point, yep.
On the other hand it would also help people find communities they are interested in but haven’t subscribed to yet.

Like normal - the comments are not actually merged, they are still in reply to separate posts. The appearance of merging is just at the user interface level.
Every post has a <link rel="canonical" href="https://lemmy.instance/whatever">
tag on it which links to the version of the post on the author’s instance.
To spread fear so people “self-deport” rather than making ICE do the work of arresting them?

Yes, somewhat. But viewing a post usually doesn’t happen in isolation - before coming to this page the viewer will have just seen a teaser of the post, containing the community icon and name OR have been browsing that community. It’s not as bad in context.
Use https://news.feedseer.com/ to summarize your Mastodon feed. Works great.
Wow, no dark mode on a photo app. Photos look great on a dark background…
Every few months Dansup announces that Groups are imminent.

When we do get a real mobile app out the door (not just a PWA), it’ll be hard to keep it up to date with the web app. So many moving parts. We’ll need to either slow down the charge or let the mobile app lag quite a lot.
It’d be so much better if everyone just used the PWA.
Yes, url is the only reliable way I could think of to match posts.
For image posts we could use a hash of the image data. But image cross-posts are not common so it doesn’t seem urgent.
Those comments get merged into one tree. I think, didn’t actually test that.
Yes we had a lot of inspiration from Mbin for this one.
They are matched by the url of where the post links to. So this only works for posts that have a url, not discussion or image posts.
Not great. PieFed does not make a local copy of inline images, like Lemmy sometimes does.
Somewhere in your profile settings there’s an export. It won’t export your posts, just which communities you follow and who you’ve blocked, etc. Import those into your new account on the new instance.
something like this perhaps https://piefed.social/f/movies
Nice one!
Today I added a feature which will help you invite people to join your community - go to https://piefed.social/community/movies/invite
It’ll send a message to fediverse users and emails to others.
Lemmy has no print stylesheet
Possibly. At the end of the day it’s all just JSON.
