lemmy.world deleted their copy of it (due to site rules, and prompted by a concerned Internet citizen)
It's probably the biggest Community in all of Lemmy, so the ramifications will be interesting.
I'm assuming it's a local ghost, so the asterisks are for ERK.
People rag on Hull, but did you know: due to the lower life expectancy, Hull actually has the youngest ghosts of any similarly-sized city?
Ah, man. I had a funny reply to that post. Mods not considering the real victims here.
Watching TV shows or movies that display Russia as a military superpower is almost surreal nowadays.
It's also surreal (for a different reason), to hear lines like
Why attack Russia? Aren't they our friends now?
from Terminator 2.
Robocop is an old film.
Ooof. Now I know how Tony Stark felt.
I'm worried, though, that if I say my favourite film is from 1987, I won't be invited to the Cool Movie Snob Parties. It's not black and white, and it doesn't even try to extrapolate from cultural fears of the threat of nuclear war.
It's certainly worth considering. Looking at earlier posts, when .world was active, their communities tended to dominate (so much so that I decided to reduce clutter by not even putting 'lemmy.world' next to their entries)
I'm a bit wary about adding stuff though: on a desktop top screen, a new section in a post looks fine; on mobile (where most people will likely see it), it can all start to look a bit indecipherable.
Probably an issue to bring to hexbear admins.
I dunno. [email protected] comes through OK for me, and I've seen it happen with non-hexbear comms. Thinking about it, I'm remembering seeing a post about false-positives being detected for active communities, so maybe it's just (another) Lemmy issue.
The second entry down has discovered the secret for subscriber growth: Have a hangup, fail to properly articulate your reasons why, watch as people come by to disagree with you.
Federation can seem wonky at times. I click on lots of links to Communities that no-one from my instance has visited before, and usually see the Posts - maybe not the Comments or the Upvotes, but I see the Posts. For indigenous@hexbear, my instance has no posts, feddit.nl has no posts, lemmy.world can't find the community. If I get the crowbar out (by which I mean copying an absolute link to one of the posts on hexbear.net/c/indigenous and searching for it from my home instance), I can bring things through.
Yesterday's question about lemmy.world's API went about as well as expected. Although it meant that I've discovered that if you reply to someone, and they delete their comment, it deletes all the replies to it. Maybe a better system than seeing a bunch of inscrutable replies to [deleted], but it'll teach me not to have a whole other conversation with someone else beneath another person's comment.
What's that? There's a Community for Mass Effect. Ah, go on then: subscribed.
Do you know why hexbear Communities don't have a different format for their Title vs. their Name?
To compare: "Full Movies on YouTube" for fullmoviesonyoutube (at lemm.ee), but not "Poverty Finance" for poverty_finance (at hexbear). More directly, why is it not "Indigenous" with a leading capital letter?
Not that one, their copy of the massive one at dbzer0
