Well, no point in resisting America's bullshit if it involves changing daily routines, I guess.

Jesus, no wonder we keep failing to change literally anything.

Hard coding other website engine names into the structure of your own website engine seems... not great.

Lemmy doesn't show posts from Mastodon for the exact same reason it doesn't show posts from Loops. Or PixelFed. Or Miskey. Or Bookwyrm. Or other Lemmy users.

A "Mastodon" feed would encompass all of those things. And it would promote the idea that all that exists outside of Lemmy are the most popular wish.com versions of existing mainstream services. It neither leaves room for acknowledging less popular options, nor anything that's genuinely new.

Plus, there are already website engines that let you follow both groups and users. If that's something you want, mbin is right there. Why not use that?

We have to stop sending end users to software solutions for web admins. We don't send them yo "nginx" or "apache", after all.

Someone throw up a website using this software and give the site a sensible name, and then direct users to that website.

And even if they did, you can't reply from Lemmy. You can't even load the post from Lemmy. You'd need to use something that actually interface with Mastodon posts.

Nova Scotia is the only province with a US border

Well, this is an embarrassing display of geography.

Functionally all, if they're the Prime Minister of a majority parliament. A good deal if they're PM in a hung parliament where the NDP isn't dead set on skewering itself.

We can stop sucking the US's dick without replacing it with Russia's, China's, or... North fucking Korea's?

Seriously, making hating the US your whole personality doesn't make the fake communists a) worthwhile or b) communists.

How does one decide which "news" contains personal politics and which doesn't? The act of deciding is, itself, an act of personal politics.

Free speech means the government can't sanction you for unpopular speech. It says absolutely nothing about private citizens.

You're not entitled to an audience, or to anybody else's platform.
