Star wars meme: Mon Mothma (Mastodon) stands before 5 other men/admirals (Writefreely, Lemmy, Peertube, Pixelfed, Friendica). She says: "The emperor has made a critical error and the time for our attack has come."

From Mastodon post: https://thecanadian.social/@EduMario/110648892924769509

Kudos for that great alt-text

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

I stole it. I stole every last piece of it. (See original post on mastodon.)

We shall all thank @[email protected] for it. ๐Ÿ˜‡

I don't think I can use peertube. It's just not as good and it's way harder to host video content server wise. I just use a privacy respecting front end for YouTube. Everything else I'm on board with.

Anyone have the sauce on what reddit traffic is looking like post July 1?

[โ€“] WhoRoger 3 points 1 year ago (2 children)

We have [email protected], post it there too! Weird how these last 3 days everyone started posting SW memes everywhere but there

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Good god, it's all beans over there, too! I don't like beans. They're sticky and squishy and irritating and they get everywhere.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I actually did when I created the post. (See the list of crossposts.)

But thanks for reminding people and pointing out other interesting comms.

[โ€“] WhoRoger 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Must be a federation problem, because I don't see the cross post link, nor the post in the community (I'm a mod) when looking through lemmy.world. Unfortunate. I wonder what would happen if someone reported a post or comment I can't even see.

Ed: ok it got fixed. I searched for the post url and that refreshed it.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well, that's kind of a wild bug there. ๐Ÿคท

I just edited the crosspost in hope that it would refederate, but I don't think it worked as expected. Sorry.

[โ€“] WhoRoger 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I searched for the post url on my instance. One of our actions fixed it, it shows up now.

Not your fault, and thanks.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Awesome! Somehow, I love the quirkiness of federated platforms. Kind of gives it character. ๐Ÿ˜†

[โ€“] WhoRoger 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It just stresses me out hah. Last week I needed something from people on 2 other instances and my post wouldn't show up for them, except for a short window when our server was upgraded. Then everyone was like "I can see your post!" for an hour or so and then poof gone again.

If you're up to playing, would you try deleting the swmemes post and reposting again? I wanna see what happens and if it works, we'll at least have a new meme other than fucking beans...

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sure! I just deleted it on my end. Post still seems to be on lemmy.world. I'll wait a little and see if the deletion gets federated and then repost.

[โ€“] WhoRoger 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Man this is bollocks. Ok I deleted it as mod, try to crosspost again?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Done. Seems like it worked fine. I can see it on lemmy.world.

[โ€“] WhoRoger 1 points 1 year ago

Yay we fixed the world! Everything gonna be perfect now!

Basically aaaaaanything that spez or spacekaren are doing? I mean, the whole established social media landscape is burning right now giving a huge push to the Fediverse.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Oh... I just thought that something more specific happened... Ok!

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

No worries. Just the usual downfall of digital society. No special occasion. ๐Ÿ˜…

Let's all meditate for a minute and chant "fuck spez" in our mind

[โ€“] x4740N 1 points 1 year ago

It would be even better if it was synchronised meditation

Even more power to fuck spez

[โ€“] MakuNagetto 0 points 1 year ago

Musk also fucked up major time with the latest Tweeter restrictions.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

lol SpaceKaren - I agree wholly

Am I the only nerd here who is bugged that the title is about ESB, but the still and the quote are from RotJ?

[โ€“] TheFrirish 2 points 1 year ago
