Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.
Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.
Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.

I finally found the issue, and it turns out it was a kbin one: https://codeberg.org/Kbin/kbin-core/issues/700 (putting the link here for reference, as one of the commenters there said they had to "scroll through 30 posts with
magazinein the title", and I certainly don't want to do that if I ever forget the link again).according to that person on kbin, calckey returns the magazine while mastodon returns the user. however, according to what you've found, for "name clashes" on lemmy, it's the other way around, with calckey getting the user and mastodon the community.
I think the admins have to really think about a new rule for how to deal with this so our usernames do not get "hijacked" by someone else starting a community with the same name.
speaking of hijacking, does anyone have an idea why https://wiki.fxmed.co.nz is pointing here? I think that domain has started showing up on google searches for monyet.cc.
