Yeah, I’m not going to defend Mastodon’s frankly bizarre Like system. It’s not even a privacy thing as favourites are fully public.

It simply can’t really happen due to the technical way Mastodon and Lemmy function. I’m not sure if there is a way to address this on either side (or if the developers would be willing to do so even if there was).
Mastodon needs to implement group support, you can follow the issue here (don’t get your hopes up though).
Their app is open source, but it doesn’t give any instructions on how to self-host it, in fact it seems to not have been designed with self-hosting in mind given the forking section of the ReadMe:
You have our blessing 🪄✨ to fork this application! However, it’s very important to be clear to users when you’re giving them a fork.
Please be sure to:
- Change all branding in the repository and UI to clearly differentiate from Bluesky.
- Change any support links (feedback, email, terms of service, etc) to your own systems.
- Replace any analytics or error-collection systems with your own so we don’t get super confused.
The impression I get from Bluesky is that it doesn’t view federation as a core feature of its platform, just a nice technical oddity. I’m no expert on the AT protocol, but from a quick skim of the quickstart, their view of federation seems to be having disparate data repositories (Personal Data Servers) app developers can put their app data into. It doesn’t really seems to be about different software communicating with each other.
In contrast, ActivityPub is about passing JSON between servers in a somewhat standard format so different software can reasonably understand what that JSON represents and act on it in a way that makes sense for that software.
(But again, I’m don’t know anything about the AT protocol, I could be completely wrong here)
EU4 has received continuous updates and DLCs since it came out in 2013, but I wouldn’t call it modern (still love it though).
Not to be that guy, but Stardew and Factorio both came out in 2016 (early access for Factorio). They’re nearly a decade old, so I’m not sure they qualify as modern.
There was/is a wave of far-right riots happening in the UK, which involved a lot lotting and attacks on Muslims. This was triggered by a stabbing in Southport and a lie that spread on social media claiming that the perpetrator was a Muslim migrant that came to the UK on a ‘small boat’ crossing the channel (he was actually born and grew up in Cardiff). Musk may be liable because during the riots he made several posts undermining the government’s attempts to quell the unrest and his general failure to tackle disinformation spreading on Twitter, such as the Muslim migrant lie.
It’s less that they’re big, but old.
Why do they go through the effort of banning people from individual communities when site banning should be enough? It honestly just comes across as vindictive.
The original reddit sub wasn’t wlw specific either, but I can change the display name to “They Were Roommates” if people want.
It is! I wanted sappho.club, but some bastard is sitting on the domain.
https://lemmy.world/c/herfriend@sappho.social
Either of those should work.
EDIT: I see that the “fediverse” link for posts has been removed. I posted this to lemmy.ml from a lemmy.world account and there’s no way for me to get the lemmy.ml link now. And when I crosspost it it shows a lemmy.world link instead of the lemmy.ml one. I think this should be changed [back].
That’s how it’s always worked??? The fediverse button goes to the canonical source, which is the post on the poster’s instance. The button doesn’t show up because you’re already looking at the source.
So our prisons are so overfilled that we’re letting some people out early, but we have space for this?
Shameless self promo, UK specific shitposts:
The only Muslim group mentioned is hardly left-wing:
Another decree targeted a group called Jonas Paris, which it said claims to support France’s Muslim community but instead promotes violence, hate and discrimination toward non-Muslims, women and LGBTQ+ people.
Also, the antisemitism talked about in the article is genuine hatred of Jewish people, not just anti-Israel rhetoric.
What groups from the left? The article doesn’t mention any left-wing groups that were ordered to dissolve.
I meant downpunxx.
I haven’t seen that myself, but I’m sure some of them exist and they’re dumb for thinking that. The person I’m replying to, though, is clearly taking the position that anti-Zionism = antisemitism.
As someone who spends more money than I should on music from Bandcamp, I’m interested to see if they ever get payments working. I remember people talking about a federated BC alternative, where the 10% platform fee goes to the instance you’re on, when they got bought by that music licensing company.
Also, first paragraph under “Integrating with the Fediverse”, you put Bandcamp when I think you meant Bandwagon.
