Federation is pretty cool (lemmy.ubergeek77.chat)

56 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I noticed my feed on Lemmy was pretty dry today, even for Lemmy. Took me a while to realize lemmy.ml has been going up and down all morning, and isn't federating new posts.

But, since this is all still federated, I can still create and read posts on other instances while I wait. Even this one! Any other service would just be unavailable completely right now.

I do miss the larger communities on lemmy.ml - asklemmy, memes, and I really wanted to watch the reddit fallout on /c/reddit. Maybe I'll look around for some good replacements for those. Open to suggestions!

@pankkake @ubergeek77 I'll actually use this as a an opportunity to test something - I copied your comment's link into mastodon and am replying to it with my mastodon account. I can see the thread in mastodon, and in theory, this reply should show up properly in Lemmy too.

It looks no different than any of the other comments to me. Though I haven't been here for even a day, so... :))

Yeah so it seems to work! Pretty cool that I can do that.

@julianh @pankkake @ubergeek77 I, too, am testing this mechanic

Do you have any idea how upvotes/downvotes get mapped to boosts and vice versa? I "followed" a couple of lemmy subs and I can see that they are boosting certain comments on posts in my mastodon feed.
