Honestly, probably for the better. Insert witty Linux quip here.

Okay, cool. I appreciate the quick reply. I thought for half a second I didn’t really understand all of this like I thought haha. That makes way more sense. Thanks again!

So is this a defederation thing? I’m going to assume. Otherwise, what’s the point of being federated if I sub to another community on another instance and only the people from my instance can see those comments? Or am I missing something?

Members of the community highlight built in sponsored segments and the extension/addon allows you to skip over them.

I recently discovered STG, and I cannot stress enough how great it is! It takes a minute to set up with colors and group names. But, oh my, how great it is to have my Spotify, Last.fm, Bandcamp, etc, in a Music tab, all my work stuff in a Work group, all my general stuff (Facebook, Lemmy, and so on) in a Home group, and so on. Being able to toggle between them is so useful.

I love Beehaw. It was the first general instance that was suggested all over the place, even the top on join-lemmy.org for a long time. I respect what you’re doing, and that’s why I joined. I like the local communities and cohesiveness. And I know it’s just a few instances right now (pending revisits), but I’m worried that might increase. That, and DotWorld is growing quickly and has a lot of the 1:1 communities popping up to match beloved subreddits.

It hasn’t made me rethink being a Beehaw member at all, because I do respect the ethos and understand, but it also means I have to make another account to feel like I can truly interact fully across the Fediverse. But between my Beehaw account, my kbin I’ve decided to leave within the kbin verse for the moment, making a new one will mean 3 accounts I’ve got to keep up with (really 4 with the NSFW-only one). It’s not difficult to do, especially toggling between them in Jerboa, but it kind of defeats the bigger purpose and unification. Just a ramble to vent. Like I said, I get it. Hope everyone has a good rest of their day.

That was suggested for the official announcements: Beehaw Yeehaws. 😂

Test?

Lemmy is promising, and I’m here to stay. I haven’t nuked my account on Reddit yet. But as others have said, I don’t plan on posting much there anymore. Unfortunately, I’m going to be slightly tethered to wherever the smaller, more niche communities that I like end up.

I am also an 11-year Reddit vet making the move. Welcome! This isn’t my first Fediverse experience, but definitely my most promising (I don’t really tweet, so Mastodon is kind of whatever to me). This and kbin have been great.

I was also part of the Voat migration. I never left Reddit, as I didn’t mind them cracking down on some of the more questionable content, but I did check Voat out. I wasn’t part of the cesspool that showed up there, but I did enjoy participating in some of the smaller communities. I think what didn’t work was that it just got stale. Same reason I didn’t like Snapzu or some of the other “Reddit alternatives.” Even larger communities were just… dead. What made Reddit work was that everyone was there, and even small, niche communities had active users.

I’ll believe it when I see it. I don’t doubt it’s gone through extensive testing. But every Bethesda title needs a good patchin’, which may come sooner or never, in the case of community patches decades later. That said, I expect bugs, but hope it’s nothing game breaking.

Can you elaborate? Genuinely. I’ve seen this take a few times now.
