Hypothetically speaking, if Reddit back tracks on their API plan and meets all of the communities expeditions- would you go back to Reddit?
  • sadly... yes. I'm just not finding the community here that I built up there over 11 years. I know, I know, give this 11 years and we'll get there, too... but it's still over there.

    I did the whole "delete all comments and posts and replace with the API reasoning text" thing, for my main and my few alts. BUt I find I still am heading over there on browser through old.reddit and lurking.

  • Can I comment on a thread on another instance if I'm not subscribed?
  • if it is a link in your feed, hopefully the app handles this. the web browser interface for sh.itjust.works handles the URL properly to let you see the thread while remaining here, and comment like a damn fool!

    the manual way:

    1. take "https://lemmy.ml/c/whatever" if that is the link someone provided in a post...
    2. navigate to "https://sh.itjust.works/c/[email protected]"
    3. you'll notice that you're still "here" on sh.it, but seeing what is hosted "there" on lemmy.ml.

    for example:

    click https://beehaw.org/c/technology.

    now click https://sh.itjust.works/c/[email protected]

  • Rain City Redemption, episode 3

    The redemption has been fully redeemed; redemptification complete.

    Well, complete, when you continue on and watch Episode 3, Part 2

    Original Rain City Redemption youtube video (Seattle classic)

    This video gives me the chills, start to finish (except at 4:20, you'd have to be high to like that moment). As hopefully we see some Lemmy adoption during the Rexxit, we should capture what makes this team and fanbase special.

  • Read a book, sleep, eat healthy... lol

    Thanks for taking some steps to get an NFL community growing off of Reddit. We'll know we've "made it" when rival fans stop being nice to one another, lol

    Until then: I'm a fan of growing communities on alternate platforms first; fan of the NFL second, and Hawks fan third.

    Then a fan of 50 other things, and finally the 49ers. 😆

  • Awesome, dude, thanks for being a driver for change.

    I've subbed to both, I'll go try and interact a bit on your preferred community to get some statistics up for fellow Lemmy travelers!

  • new to fediverse, new to Lemmy, new to sh.itjust.works
  • I'm jealous! I haven't been able to but, now with more knowledge, I'll give it another go

    If it works for you, keep doing it!

    It would be awesome to just search "pancakes" in jerboa, and see the pancake communities in all the instances. Or even if I know [email protected] exists, to go search it outright from jerboa.

    We're on a mission to learn!

  • Excited about our QB situation!
  • Brock took the NFL by storm. He's already the most relevant "Mr. Irrelevant" in history, even if he doesn't play another snap.

    Which, of course, he will. Pretty amazing 7th round find, to save 9er bacon with the lackluster performance of Lance so far. The whole QB situation there is an amazing story!

  • Not able to see/subscribe to some communities from here?
  • It would be nice if this was configurable. Or maybe someone enterprising can write a script to do some searching now, while our usage is low, and the number of external communities is also low.

    I know as things start to get really high usage, and the number of Lemmy instances grows, and communities per instance grow, that it might be untenable. But at least for this early onboarding process where we expect a lot of new users, it would be cool to give them a soft landing experience

    Anyone want to critique my approach? I'm trying to find and join federated communities to engage with through jerboa app...

    For others reading along, I learned a good way to find communities is:

    1)browse to http://browse.feddit.de and search for communities by title (“NFL”, “broncos”, “NFCN_meme_war”). This is to make sure you’re seeing if your desired community exists somewhere in the fediverse.

    2)log into your account at a place like http://www.beehaw.org (for me it is http://sh.itjust.works)

    3)search by the title again (not the url that feddit.de let’s you copy… Don’t know why)

    4)click the link to the community, it opens in your browser

    5)click the sidebar link, click subscribe

    6)now you can log into your app (for me it’s jerboa for Lemmy) and see posts from those communities in your subscribed feed!

    This seems arduous, and it is, but it’s just because I’ve been reading that search for communities in jerboa isn’t functional yet, because we’re all so new! It’ll likely get better soon

    Joined the bills community hosted on Lemmy, from sh.itjust.works browser interface

    Just bragging that I'm kinda figuring this whole fediverse this out...

    For others reading along, I learned a good way to find communities is:

    1. go to http://browse.feddit.de and search for communities by title ("NFL", "broncos", "NFCN_meme_war"). This is to make sure you're seeing if your desired community exists somewhere. click the copy link icon in the search result for the community you want.
    2. log into your account at a place like http://www.beehaw.org (for me it is http://sh.itjust.works)
    3. search using this format (don't forget the !): [email protected], from the copied url: https://lemmy.world/c/nfl
    4. click the link to the community, it opens in your browser
    5. click the sidebar link, click subscribe
    6. now you can log into your app (for me it's jerboa for Lemmy) sand see post from those communities in your subscribed feed!

    This seems arduous, and it is, but it's just because I've been reading that search for communities in jerboa isn't functional yet, because we're all so new! It'll like get better sooner
