@ApostateEnglishman You should check it out. Lemmy's great! Interoperability is terrific but I think the way information and discussion are displayed in Lemmy* is superior for deeper dives and being "in" a discussion. Not at all a knock on Mastodon, which is perfect for what it is. They're just trying to be different things that have different strengths πŸ˜€

  • PieFed and mbin too, the other "threadiverse" projects

@ApostateEnglishman But you're not a Twitter user anymore, so maybe it's time to let that go. You're part of something much bigger than Twitter-style micro-blogging. Lemmy users will usually have profiles (bios) -- although not typically as extensive as Mastodon users -- but following users or being followed doesn't make any sense on Lemmy. The primary unit is the community (group) not the user.

RIP fediversenews! πŸͺ¦ Long live fediversenews! πŸ‘‘

Interestingly, without the "!" it doesn't show up as a group in Friendica. It's a user that doesn't exist so there's no way to follow it from the tag. You have to click through then drop the url in search.

What do you find to be the biggest improvements in mod tools at piefed over lemmy?
