irelephant [he/him]🍭@lemm.eeto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Does the average person know markdown?2·15 minutes agoNo, they use the WYSIWYG editor it has.
I am a big fan of markdown though.
Did you know you can nest these?
That's right, someone could make a choose your own adventure game this way
irelephant [he/him]🍭@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Thoughts on Liam O'Hanna being charged with terrorism offences for brandishing a Hezbollah flag?1·18 minutes agoHe shouldn’t have flown the flag, supporting a terrorist organisation (like hamas, hezbollah or the IDF) is objectively wrong.
There is a double standard though.
irelephant [he/him]🍭@lemm.eeto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is there any fundamental difference between an instance and a formal website ?1·30 minutes agoTo explain federation (I am terrible at explaining things),
Every user/group on an instance has an inbox and an outbox, for example, yours is https://lemmy.world/u/Docker@lemmy.world/inbox and !nostupidquestion@lemmy.world’s is https://lemmy.world/c/nostupidquestions/inbox .
When a post is made, its sent a group’s inbox, and then the group sends it to the inbox of every user subscribed to it. If I send you a direct message, my server sends it to your inbox.
If you go to a post in your browser, it shows it in the web interface, but if you set whats called a header (some small bits on information sent to a server when you request a page) saying that you’re a server, it gives you a machine readable representation of it.
For example, your comment here looks like this:
{ "@context": [ "https://join-lemmy.org/context.json", "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams" ], "type": "Note", "id": "https://lemmy.world/comment/17178560", "attributedTo": "https://lemmy.world/u/Docker", "to": [ "https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#Public" ], "cc": [ "https://lemmy.world/c/nostupidquestions", "https://startrek.website/u/FriendOfDeSoto" ], "content": "<p>In this regard, can a singular website function like a unique instance of the fediverse ?</p>\n", "inReplyTo": "https://startrek.website/comment/16837450", "mediaType": "text/html", "source": { "content": "In this regard, can a singular website function like a unique instance of the fediverse ?", "mediaType": "text/markdown" }, "published": "2025-05-21T09:55:42.214962Z", "tag": [ { "href": "https://startrek.website/u/FriendOfDeSoto", "name": "@FriendOfDeSoto@startrek.website", "type": "Mention" } ], "distinguished": false, "audience": "https://lemmy.world/c/nostupidquestions", "attachment": [] }
So, you could make a post or page of a website like one of these, and then manually send it to everyone’s inbox, but you won’t be able to handle incoming messages.

irelephant [he/him]🍭@lemm.eeto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is referring to countries as "civilized" and "uncivilized" considered to be racist?1·43 minutes agoIt comes off as very ignorant.
