Proposing that Lemmy or Kbin could substitute for Reddit while not acknowledging that lack of search makes it impossible to find the appropriate groups in a decentralized maze of servers is very on-brand for the Mastodon crowd. #search#reddit#federated @fediverse
It's like the early internet, you have to move around and eventually you'll find what you are looking for. Follow that link! Search engines were useful for that back in the day.
I bet we'll have similar services even if we do not have them just yet.
I'm not sure why Mastodon posts always end up looking so bad on Lemmy. The title is always gored and the post always has hashtags that do nothing in Lemmy. Just because they're technically cross compatible doesn't mean they should be.
I think it uses the tweet content as both the post title and body when Lemmy tries to display masto tweets. Maybe the title should just be "Mastodon post from @username" tbh
@osma if kbin doesn't have a group you're looking for, then make it on kbin. maybe it's just my newbie kbinaut perspective but kbin groups come first, federation second.
