  • I mean, discoverability is hard, sure, but add a few hashtags and you can get a lot of people to see your posts. also, mentioning a lemmy group as a user posts your post to the community.

  • Eh, flowers are in lawns, and are a big benefit to leaving it uncut.

  • I know, thats the joke :)

  • Sir, this is a wendy's post about lawns.

  • Mastodon really is the internet explorer of the fediverse.In any case, I don't think its that bad. I would compare it to an email provider accidentially leaking messages. Still bad, but its not a reason to abandon email as a means of communication.We should encrypt posts, like diaspora does. Like how we should pgp encrypt emails, but no one will.

    also, I just checked myself, a random "private" post I made isn't accessible over AP if I curl it unauthenticated. Running curl.exe https://calckey.world/notes/a63slz8j6l -H "Accept: application/activity+json" returns nothing, but replacing the uri with a public post does show it.An insecure server's copy of the post isn't accessible over AP, only the original post's link should return anything.

  • Have you heard of neverending legacy? Its a (mostly unfinished) webgame by orteil42, creator of cookie clicker. Overpopulation is the real problem in the endgame, and its incredibly hard to cull the population without everyone dying of hunger.

  • Maybe I'm wrong, but shouldn't posts only be insecure if they're propagated to the insecure instance? Is any private post visible to people on servers that the poster doesn't have followers on?Could I curl the uri of a post thats "private" and get the post's content?

  • You cannot use a mastodon app as a lemmy client, but you can view lemmy communities by opening them as if they are profiles. For example, open @fediverse@lemmy.world and it will show up as a user, but it will be the communitiy's posts.

    You can mention it in a post to forward the post to the community as well.

  • We are tiny in comparison to the rest of the fediverse.

  • grass.

  • sure, why not.

  • So, women only want men who have magic arrow attracting powers?

  • You should read the edit.

    Edit: because a few comments make me worry that some are taking this seriously - this meme is a play on the type of hopeless dating posts you might find in less healthy corners of the internet. The joke is a suggestion that the real problem is that one man in the image has some sort of arrow-attracting superpower.

  • Sharkey's mastodon api implementation lets you ddos the server.

  • I tell people to make a live usb to test it first.

  • Most people just use the online office 365 thing.

    What issues did you have with LibreOffice? I didn't spot any problems when I used it

  • Its a good idea for their shareholders, who don't think beyond the next quater. Pretty sure most of them don't have object permanence.
