  • musk.sucks is up for auction

  • Best option is to not click on any content related to Musk with the exception of "need to be informed" type news reports. Even adjacent things like SpaceX etc.

  • Potential consolidation of strategy video games communities

  • I get the need for more generic communities getting bigger before we split out into niches (I say this as a curator for a niche community that could probably be merged into 2-3 others), but RTS and TBS are really very different experiences.

    Mastodon to Lemmy post formatting rules questions

  • Posting to multiple Lemmy communities is not a big deal (you can always crosspost with a Lemmy account).

    Links are taken from Activitypub attachment, but Mastodon only seems to support image attachments. So it is not possible to add other types of links unless Mastodon adds an option for that.

    This IMO kills the whole Lemmy <> Mastodon integration outside of some very, very simple use cases. The ability to have differentiation between a heading and a URL is critical.

    It's too bad Mastodon doesn't seem to support the URL function of Activitypub.

    Mastodon is by far the biggest fedi micro-blogging platform. I recognize the irony of what I am saying considering I want people to move from Reddit to Lemmy, but for niche topics like tycoon/business sim video games, my point stands.

    Mastodon to Lemmy post formatting rules questions

  • I get that. I would argue the use case I described is basically the bread and butter of Mastodon <> Lemmy integration (if you don't want your posts to look like shit on either Mastodon or Lemmy).

    The critical drawback for me is that you can't have hardcoded URLs/images/headings across both Mastodon and Lemmy posts.

    If you can't do that, you severely restrict the scope of integration between the two platforms. This is a net loss because the content I post on !tycoon@lemmy.world is arguably relevant for both forum style discussions and micro-blogging.

  • Ah, this is a critical drawback.

    I am basically back to square one:

    Mastodon image attachment/Lemmy thumbnail is mandatory from my perspective. Otherwise, I might as well leave the current situation as is. You want clean posts on both Lemmy and Mastodon,

  • Btw for their benefit, adding the context: post with feedback and questions on Lemmy-Mastodon interoperation.

    What does this refer to? A github thread on a feature?

  • Lemmy vote aggregation idea

  • Sort by new (for subscribed only if you don't want everything).

    That's even how I used to use reddit (I even had a bookmark folder of subreddits with links to the /new/ view).

  • Interesting, I will have to experiment with this. I am curious how the Mastodon formatting would transform to Lemmy.

  • Sorry, I didn't quiet get that.

    The manual Mastodon posts already include a link to the Lemmy post URL.

    What would adding a @tycoon@lemmy.world to Mastodon posts do on the Lemmy side?

    Or maybe I am not getting something?

  • I see. I had a suspicion that this was somehow tied to my specific instance on Mastodon.

    Correct me if I am wrong, but theoretically the Lemmy (Agent Karyo) posts could have already been federated on larger Mastodon instances, but I didn't see them because someone on mstdn.games needed to have first followed !tycoon@lemmy.world for me to see them on my mstdn.games feed?

    And Lemmy content on Mastodon always follows the community = hashtag model?

    The lack of ability to customize the appearance of Lemmy posts on Mastodon is really annoying. The default method is not suitable for micro-blogging.

    I guess I will just continue doing what I did before and wait till there is a better system of managing Lemmy <> Mastodon interactions.
