Call on me!! Call on me!!

Why not just make it 1998 and bring back Web Rings?

Problem solved

@AlbigensianGhoul

If a #Lemmy post has to come with instructions for me to read it properly, not interested

Hard pass on that

@saplacat

“I think this is on your side but it’s hard to make out what you’re actually trying or which links you are referring to.”

This is exactly my point

I’m clicking on the links you’re posting as they appear on Mastodon

I’m on Mastodon v4.3.4 which is the latest version

Why do I have to be logged in to some Lemmy instance to get Lemmy posts to operate with any kind of sanity?

I don’t

@saplacat

It does exactly the same thing when I click through on your profile link from Mastodon and click the top-most link under your profile

Y’all got sold a bill of goods and seem to be stuck in your own little Walled Garden

@saplacat

Mastodon v4.3.4, Firefox 136.0 (64-bit) browser tab on Ubuntu desktop

This is so typical of #Lemmy posts I’ve already filtered them out

Why should I click through on something I won’t be able to read?

@yogthos

“You must log in or register to comment.”

Or even read whatever it is

feh…

@Zetta

"but after reading the rules, I definitely don’t want to use that server. Mainly because of this rule:

"No incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies”

That’s not gonna fly for me. I definitely want to see people inciting violence against CEOs and stuff if the time comes."

You’re trolling, right?

Right?

Bad gambit

Bye…

@Deadman

Couple thoughts, because I read some common misunderstandings

1. The Fediverse is a broad, generic concept like “democracy”

No one is running “Fediverse” anywhere or is homed on a “Fediverse” instance

2. #ActivityPub is a protocol, a specification if you will

It must be *implemented* in a specific software distribution (to varying degrees of accuracy) to exist

Again, no one is running “ActivityPub” anywhere or is homed on an “ActivityPub” instance

3. “Viewing content from other #instances, one needs to follow a profile from that instance”

and

“Explicitly viewing instance content, user needs to sign up on their instance”

No

I can go to your instance in a web browser, to /public/local/ and read the public posts on your specific instance

Here: https://mstdn.social/public/local

But no, I cannot see anyone’s Home feed unless I follow that person, or follow hashtags which we use and Follow in common

Which is the only reason I saw your post in the first place, the hashtag #Fediverse
