@zn Vulcan did, years ago during first #TwitterMigration
Café
Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.
Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.
Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.
Honestly no, I'm waiting for it to come to me. I was promised eventual inter-operability with a lot of it from my one account, and I like the simple format of Lemmy, so I'm waiting until I can access stuff like Mastodon content from here.
unfortunately, it seems a feature request to add microblogging functionality to lemmy was rejected by the devs: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3402
They'll cave to pressure eventually. I understand them not prioritizing adding the functionality early in the development, when there are about a billion things potentially more important.
Once those billion things get whittled down though, the situation changes. If they haven't added it in 3 years, I'll probably just switch to kbin. Probably along with many others, due to overall integration being pretty integral to the Fediverse as a whole.
So I assume it'd be like posting in /u/yourname back in spezland? Now it feels weird to think leddit also had microblogging features of some sort.
dunno how tbh
Wow, calckey has one of the best GUIs I've ever seen.
so....wait. is mastodon also lemmy? I’m real fuckin confused here.
Mastodon is its own thing. It's a microblogging platform like Twitter. Lemmy is an aggregator and discussion platform like Reddit. Kbin is a mix of both.
But they all can talk with each other as they're using a set of communication protocols that everyone understands, called ActivityPub. This protocol is the foundation that made the fediverse possible. It means content can be spread across many servers, and interactions can happen the same way.
