Influence your opinion? Dude, I’m just sharing info. Nothing else

Is this a joke?

FWIW, that’s someone directly saying that their goal is to go out and proselytize.

Leave the politics elsewhere please

Hey, keep it friendly. That’s not in the spirit of civil hobby discussion we look for here

Good news! It works! You can indeed use old backups, and it (so far) works without issue

And it is glorious!

Everything is gorgeous :)

It’s like coming home after a long trip.

I have found a bug though. Logging in to sh.itjust.works seems to cause crashes that other instances don’t (so far). Lemmy.world, ttrpg.network, and sopuli.xyz haven’t crashed at all so far. Haven’t tested any others yet since I want to take a bit to just enjoy the app.

Seriously, Dawson, thank you for this :)

Edit: found a very minor thing in the comment markdown menu. The >!spoiler!< markdown on lemmy is different than reddit uses. The >! Doesn’t work here.

Spoiler is weird on lemmy. It’s

::: spoiler

Text

:::

Supposedly. However, it doesn’t actually work at all in most apps.

The reddit >! Works in sync, but not elsewhere.

Fuck yeah! One of the more obscure but great folk metal bands

I dunno, I was up and running in five minutes. You pick an instance, you sign up, you verify the email, and you’re good to go. What server doesn’t matter much, barring it closing unexpectedly and without warning. There’s not enough users to need more than a handful.

Eh, if it were easier to block an instance as a user, I’d be 100% with you instead of 95%.

There are instances that are batshit crazy. Since blocking an instance as a user just ain’t possible yet, I can see why defederation before trouble gets going is useful. Once the nasty side of the internet gets snowballing, it’s much harder to manage.

Troll, or serious extremist, some things are just cancerous.

::: spoiler test testing

Aha! That got it. Three colons. Spoiler, then the text for the spoiler listing, an enter, n closing `::: and then it works. It doesn’t work without the enter before the spolied text, which is just confusing and annoying imo. The >! Markdown is so much better.

But! You can enter anything after the initial ::: spoiler as the text to show before clicking

It’s working on mobile browser for me, but not on jerboa. Jerboa doesn’t seem to recognize several markdown notations.

that’s a screenshot with the spoiler entry from the little triangle with an ! In it from the entry box

Edit: and the jerboa update didn’t bring full markdown support lol

Redundancy is never a bad thing

I dunno, why does everyone blow their nose on a kleenex?

Lego is eponymous for plastic building blocks. If you call the forum anything else, you aren’t going to be recognizable and easy to find.

I mean, hell, there’s people that don’t even know there’s actual brands other than lego at all

Even doing it by hand is a large outlay to get going, if you want to do anything beyond nailing two boards together.

Fuck! I have been missing my metalmemes fix. It is the sub that could make me literally lol every day.

This right here is some top grade memeage :)

And cetera

It’s a weird way of saying etc, which is an abbreviation of et cetera. Which is Latin for “and the rest”, with et being “and”. It’s more colloquially translated as “and so forth”, or “and so on”, or “yada yada yada”
