Hypothetically speaking, if Reddit back tracks on their API plan and meets all of the communities expeditions- would you go back to Reddit? in c/[email protected]

I'd love to see you take another chance on a Lemmy community. Start it up here, and post!

sadly... yes. I'm just not finding the community here that I built up there over 11 years. I know, I know, give this 11 years and we'll get there, too... but it's still over there.

I did the whole "delete all comments and posts and replace with the API reasoning text" thing, for my main and my few alts. BUt I find I still am heading over there on browser through old.reddit and lurking.

Can I comment on a thread on another instance if I'm not subscribed? in c/main

if it is a link in your feed, hopefully the app handles this. the web browser interface for sh.itjust.works handles the URL properly to let you see the thread while remaining here, and comment like a damn fool!

the manual way:

  1. take "https://lemmy.ml/c/whatever" if that is the link someone provided in a post...
  2. navigate to "https://sh.itjust.works/c/[email protected]"
  3. you'll notice that you're still "here" on sh.it, but seeing what is hosted "there" on lemmy.ml.

for example:

click https://beehaw.org/c/technology.

now click https://sh.itjust.works/c/[email protected]

It feels great getting that team's first chip. Congrats, Nuggs!

well, if you want to feed the current drama and reach those folks, you can always follow these instructions to delete your existing comments and posts, and replace them with a description on how to do the same:

We all remember that the Seahawks made the playoffs at 7-9, at that time the only team to make the playoffs with a losing record. And we know what happened in those playoffs.

I had forgotten is was Pete Carroll and John Schneider's first year; I had forgotten that Marshawn wasn't on the team until we traded for him mid season after week 4; I had forgotten that to make room for Beast Mode, we traded Julius Jones, who landed with the Saints...

This video gives me the chills, start to finish (except at 4:20, you'd have to be high to like that moment). As hopefully we see some Lemmy adoption during the Rexxit, we should capture what makes this team and fanbase special.

Inspiring the next generation.

Our players took time out of their weekend to celebrate Flag Football.

for special children like me, how do we use such a thing? I'm guessing a browser plugin of some sort?

Thanks for taking the effort to make this place feel like our old, abusive, but still comfortable, home. :)

Thanks for coming this list! Hopefully we continue to engage with the thread so newbs find it easily.

Anyone want to critique my approach? I'm trying to find and join federated communities to engage with through jerboa app...

For others reading along, I learned a good way to find communities is:

1)browse to http://browse.feddit.de and search for communities by title (“NFL”, “broncos”, “NFCN_meme_war”). This is to make sure you’re seeing if your desired community exists somewhere in the fediverse.

2)log into your account at a place like http://www.beehaw.org (for me it is http://sh.itjust.works)

3)search by the title again (not the url that feddit.de let’s you copy… Don’t know why)

4)click the link to the community, it opens in your browser

5)click the sidebar link, click subscribe

6)now you can log into your app (for me it’s jerboa for Lemmy) and see posts from those communities in your subscribed feed!

This seems arduous, and it is, but it’s just because I’ve been reading that search for communities in jerboa isn’t functional yet, because we’re all so new! It’ll likely get better soon

Just bragging that I'm kinda figuring this whole fediverse this out...

For others reading along, I learned a good way to find communities is:

  1. go to http://browse.feddit.de and search for communities by title ("NFL", "broncos", "NFCN_meme_war"). This is to make sure you're seeing if your desired community exists somewhere. click the copy link icon in the search result for the community you want.
  2. log into your account at a place like http://www.beehaw.org (for me it is http://sh.itjust.works)
  3. search using this format (don't forget the !): [email protected], from the copied url: https://lemmy.world/c/nfl
  4. click the link to the community, it opens in your browser
  5. click the sidebar link, click subscribe
  6. now you can log into your app (for me it's jerboa for Lemmy) sand see post from those communities in your subscribed feed!

This seems arduous, and it is, but it's just because I've been reading that search for communities in jerboa isn't functional yet, because we're all so new! It'll like get better sooner
