That's awesome. I just got access to the beta and this is actually my first comment using it. Thank you for your hard work.

If only /r/AskHistorians were this prescient.

This is a great read for getting some historical context.

What boards really needed it?

Which instance? Surely they haven't blocked them all?

Christ, what instance did you sign up on? Lemmygrad?

There's no way for it to tell you if the username is already taken at the moment so that could be an issue. Could also be you need to click an email?

Agreed. Luckily the algorithm bug is being fixed in the next release.

I tried the thunder app for lemmy and was disappointed to see it showed a total "karma" number. I'd been enjoying not having a running total. I like seeing my comments and posts get appreciated but I see no need for it all to add up.

One of the things I liked about the fediverse was I was less likely to be told I'm farming karma. I just like posting things that I think will promote a discussion.

I don't want people to claim I'm trying inflate my imaginary internet number again.

No they've just starting removing mods directly.

How am I reading this if you can't reply to me?

Try setting the comment language to English. If that doesn't work try setting it to undetermined.

Do you have both indétermined and English set in your profile?
