Don't believe that's how it works. It's not SSO (which would be AWESOME). That will create an actual local account on other servers. This is still your mastodon account 'viewing' a pixelfed account via the ActivityPub protocol. It's just the 'view' that's different for different services (very broad definition). Viewing a pixelfed account/profile via a pixelfed instance shows you a photo gallery that has text with each photo (not alt text). Viewing that same pixelfed account from a mastodon account, you'd see a series of toots/posts text that happen to mostly have pictures. The reverse view of pixelfed looking at a Mastodon account, not sure but I'd guess just a mostly empty photo gallery with text associated?

And I'd think much more likely to be subject to copyright claims and/or child porn crap. it's bittorrent type sharing so it opens up to a world of legal pain it would seem. Really hard for a volunteer setup to deal with that.

except for the pollen. Nanopores / tiny holes seem like they'd get fouled up by dust and things pretty quickly.

really interesting idea, just wonder about the real world operating environment issues.

The long tail of global colonialism ;-) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Left-_and_right-hand_traffic

Also, while not entirely accurate, an even older history, ahem, driving, the modern world http://www.astrodigital.org/space/stshorse.html

Without India I suspect Driving on the Left would be relegated to history books by simple economics.

Though with EVs a lot of the production costs of doing both could be eliminated.

Got it. the Magazine page search doesn't find it but your full @DwarfFortress in the regular search does find it! Thank you!

Much appreciated. My Federation setting is On but lists no instances so seemingly I'd guess that's a reasonable guess at the problem. Appreciate the heads up on case sensitivity. I guess readit.buzz is fairly small, which is ironic b/c it's run by @supernovae of the bigger Universeodon.com Masto site haha

Hi! wasn't really a readittor but def used it for the #dwarffortress stuff. How do I find your magazine here? just signed up here at readit.buzz and not seeing it either with the reg search or the magazine search itself.
