Is this public? I wouldnโt mind browsing it
Yeah, bottom of the page on default UI
WTF feature did you just use? /modlog, what?
It's just a relative link, it will bring you to the /modlog of your home instance.
I did not know that works. Check check.
Unfortunately, that's bound to go somewhere different for everyone, otherwise it would actually be a useful workaround for linking to comments. It is still kind of fun, though.
Comments and posts are using different IDs per instance so those can't be linked using a relative path. However you can use https://lemmyverse.link for those.
Ex: this post
Yeah, that's what I said.
Lemmyverse looks kinda cool, but honestly I wonder why they didn't just make it a Lemmy pull request and spare us all the extra domain.
I'm not sure how they could fix that without having to change the entire database schema, and how to keep the posts and comments IDs in sync across the fediverse without breaking all the posts and the comments made prior to that change without processing a bunch of entries.
Well, we have a backwards-compatible solution right here. Make a database that lists how the comment and post numbers correspond (I assume that's how this works).
Storing them by hash or something would be good too, but yeah, that's a lot more work.
I'm not sure if it's different per instance, but in lemmy.world instance you go out to the feed and scroll to the bottom. You can search by user name and such.
on your instance's homepage you can scroll down to the bottom to find its modlog. here's lemmy.world's: https://lemmy.world/modlog
Holy crap why have I never thought of this
- active: [email protected] - I'm never 100% sure what's going on here, but it's pretty interesting (comics)
- active: [email protected] - things that make you say "WTF!"
- active: [email protected] - daily posts of "Heathcliff without Heathcliff" comics edits that are usually pretty surreal.
- active: [email protected] - weird news (sometimes leaning towards pseudoscience/conspiracy-theory)
- semi-active: [email protected] - weird news (usually from mainstream news)
- semi-active: [email protected] - "awful taste but great execution"
- semi-active: [email protected] - was a fairly-regularly-updated collection of interesting stuff, but then the main poster "disappeared", and another person took over for a bit but then there were kbin federation problems...
- semi-active: [email protected] - I think the idea is to sound like a badass but to actually be wholesome?
- inactive: [email protected] - basically this guy complaining about his ex-wife. feelz bad for him but it was pretty entertaining. Hasn't posted since December, hope he's OK.
Also [email protected]. Way more inscrutable IMO than Unix Surrealism, which you can at least work out is a one-man art movement.
I love my instance.
There are no subs here: It's all communities and magazines!
That said, [email protected] is pretty good
what are magazines ?
Kbin's equivalent of communities are magazines. Similarly, Masodon's equivalent are Groups.
Mbin too
Magazines are basically communities on Mbin and Kbin.
That time they banned the word "fascist" was the closest to self-awarenes they get.
What do you mean we're fascists. We love freedom so much we banned the f word!
Easily lavenderism.
I've seen their posts from time to time and I must admit I have no idea what that community is about.
It looks like a Spiritualist form of Idealism intentionally created as a means to combine with social activism. There are also Soulists on Lemmy, which is equally outside the realm of reality.
Esteemed Academy Award nominated character actress Margot Robbie.
Most the really chaotic ones are on Lemmygrad. Which is why nearly everyone defederated from them
