Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".

MODERATORS
 

Old habits die hard, but there's Reddiquette which needs to be revived, and some which needs to die.

Many "golden-age" redditors remember a time when downvoting was reserved for hostility, not a different opinion. For the sake of our growing community I would like to implore everyone to be awesome to each other.

However, this place is not Reddit.

  • We don't measure in bananas here.
  • We don't need to append "edit: typo" to edited posts and comments.
  • if you see something which is worthy of a downvote: down vote and move on! Don't engage with it and feed the algorithm/engament machine so other people are exposed to it when sorting by active.

I agree the context is important, and the examples of rewriting large paragraphs justify clarification, both for new people and returning.

But the original point I made was that you don't need to post "edit: typo" here on Lemmy. We don't have edited post/comment tags, so nobody would know if it's just typos

It's really not that big of a deal anyway, I was just thinking of redundant examples of Rediquete to drum up the conversation.

Posts show as edited in many 3rd party apps and on other platforms

Edit - And in Lemmy too!

FYI, I can also see an edit to your previous post too, directly in Lemmy!

Oh shit.

PLEASE DON'T TELL ANYONE WHAT I CHANGED.

It was a really embarrassing mistake and I'm sorry I ever said it.

PLEASE DON’T TELL ANYONE WHAT I CHANGED.

That part I can't see. Only that you edited it :)
