That’s a recent feature though, isn’t it? If it’s so important to you, why didn’t you join Mbin instead which has had it for ages?

The US already has huge issues with understanding what you’re voting for. Why would you simplify it even further? You need to do the opposite if you want a healthy democracy. Make sure people are properly informed about what they’re voting for.

I do see the formatting on your instance too, so it is probably voyager that’s the culprit here.

I assume it relies on the source field on posts for the formatting, which contains the post in Markdown. But that’s a threadiverse feature, Mastodon doesn’t support that. The actual intended way to federate formatting on the protocol is to send it as HTML and then the receiving server interprets the HTML.

The actual projects like Piefed and Lemmy understand that the Markdown isn’t universal and so fall back to interpreting the HTML when it’s not present. So the post appears as intended there. But I guess apps might not be as thorough there and solely rely on the Markdown with no fallback. So when there is no Markdown, the formatting is lost to them.

Just my thoughts on the matter though, haven’t actually looked at the code.

Seems like an issue with the app you’re using then.

My guess is it doesn’t support HTML formatting, which is the fediverse native way of formatting posts. Posts are supposed to be federated as HTML and then the receiving instance interprets the HTML. But the threadiverse also includes a source version of the post which is in Markdown, Mastodon iirc doesn’t do that. The app might be falsely relying on that source version, but nothing OP can do about that when Mastodon doesn’t support it.

The formatting is there, but probably not in a language your threadiverse-centric app is made to understand.

Even looking at it on your instance, the post looks formatted to me?

Mine is nothing special. It’s Architect of Ruin from Shotgun King. You get it for doing some minor progress in the new-ish (not really anymore, but it used to be new) Charnier mode, nothing challenging at all, but I assume the reason only 0.6% of players have it is because everyone moved on from the game before that content dropped.

Check out NodeBB, which is also part of the threadiverse.

To me personally, “woke” means living in the real world.

A lot of people nowadays reject reality and prefer to live in a world of falsehood. They desire a simpler world, so they refuse to acknowledge the complexities of the world.

Woke people don’t do that. They engage with reality, not fiction. Which is what makes them a danger to those that do prefer to escape to a simpler fictional world. Hence them denying and opposing woke. It’s a defensive reaction to a perceived threat to their alternate worldview.
Or at least that’s how I see it.

One reason I haven’t seen mentioned yet is practicability.

Yes, people have the tools. But how do you get that tool to where you need it?

In the US I believe you can just carry weapons for whatever reason you want. That’s not quite the case in Switzerland. If you’ve got a gun for military service, for example, you’re only allowed to carry it from and to military service or the shooting range. You can’t just go to a school with it. Same applies to other purposes. You can only carry a gun for the specific purpose you have your permit for. You can’t just take it to a school or mall.

Plus, the people who have guns at home usually only have the guns, no ammo, iirc.

Expat is the term used by immigrants who think they’re better than the bad immigrants because they come from the good countries. At least that’s how it is in my country. Usually they’re the worse kind of immigrants because they refuse to integrate.

Is there a way to transfer posts etc from one account to another?

Pretty sure there isn’t.

I made a Pieface account, but I can’t see the comments and posts from my Lemmy account. What’s up with that?

Lemmy and Piefed work a lot like email. Your posts are sent to a list of recipients, and only the receiving servers are aware of them. On Lemmy/Piefed, that list of recipients includes: the community you’re posting in, the user you’re replying to, any users you mention in the post, and users that follow you. Any server with a user on that list will get your post, any server that isn’t featured on that list will not. Communities will then fan out posts they receive to all their subscribers, allowing them to reach a greater audience.

If you posted to an obscure community, then that explains why your post isn’t visible on Piefed. If you registered on a smaller Piefed instance, that could also explain why they might not have received your post. Less users means that, even if the community is large, it’s less likely for someone to be subscribed to it.

It’s also possible that the Piefed instance has blocked your Lemmy instance. Or, if you just made your posts, that it’s just taking a while for the two servers to communicate.

Interesting, seems like lemvotes doesn’t show downvotes for Mbin users. Only upvotes.

I use IsThereAnyDeal. Don’t really care about the source, as long as they’re listed on ITAD, have a 70% or higher discount, and the purchase can be activated on Steam (or it’s GOG). I trust ITAD to not list fraudulent sources.

Would it be dystopian if we don’t even own our right to live anymore?

I’d disagree we have a right to live in the first place. If it was a right, we could refuse it. But that’s actually illegal.

What we have is an obligation to live, not a right. And so we’re already not in control in the first place.

What are your thoughts on people who say hate speech is free speech?

Free speech isn’t about a list of allowed words from which you can remove ones you dislike. It’s the ability to speak your mind freely.

Hate speech is very much part of free speech. As is defamation. Banning them is limiting free speech. It’s just that civilized countries determined that’s justified and morally right in some cases and decided to define some red lines. But that doesn’t remove hate speech from the umbrella of free speech.

but would Codeberg’s policies allow doing such thing ?

In its terms of use, Codeberg explicitly outlines under what license terms it provides code hosted on it:

• the right to use the content for any purpose, including both commercial and non-commercial purposes
• the right to make unlimited copies of the content and redistribute those copies to others, with or without charge
• the right to examine the content and determine how it works and/or how it was made
• the right to make their own modifications to the content, to use the content with those modifications privately
• and the right to redistribute copies of the content which include their own modifications, with or without charge

You are not allowed to upload code which you do not have permission to publish under these terms. Which means you can’t just arbitrarily relicense code you got from Github, and you also can’t upload Github projects with a more restrictive license, such as non-commercial ones.

How do you know?

I’ve seen more than enough bots here, and we know that only the tip of the iceberg is actually visible with things like this. Bots nowadays can pretend to be humans scarily well.

I know someone who has gotten temp banned from 4chan for their speech repeatedly, so it doesn’t seem to fit what OP is asking for imo.

At least on Reddit, the rules exist and you can see them—even if enforcement is spotty, you know what you’re supposedly violating. Here, it’s whatever mood the local mod is in that day.

No one is preventing Reddit mods from banning you for arbitrary reasons that aren’t in the rules. So this is just pro-Reddit proganada there.

The difference here is that the modlog is public. There’s transparency.

But that would hurt fossil fuel companies, so we can’t do that. (/jk)
