LMAO eta: https://mefi.social/@cendawanita/110654304638688346
Thank you 😊
Np of course must support XD
One more thanks for the shoutout! That seems have created a noticeable traffic bump. Welcome, fediverse visitors!
Yay!!!
I thought to myself "maybe once my reddit app dies I'll have a looksie at twitter for personalized news" and now twitter is throwing a hissy fit too
I have no idea where to go now, I'm still not sure how this site works
Switching to "All" mode has not been a bad reddit replacement for me imo! On my feed literally right now: Why all of a sudden tech companies are not being favorable to their users? lol
I’d recommend using an app (I’m using wefwef), and adding the servers you want on here. I added lemmy.world, kbin.social and ofc monyet.cc.
think of it as it's own little reddit-like server. browse the communities (can toggle All or Local) and subscribe to anything interesting or newsy
can toggle All or Local
oh shit now it's lookin more lively
thanks for the tip, I'll explore around a bit more
here is another tip that should be useful while browsing "all".
remember to make use of this colored star icon. it brings you to the instance a post originated from (so you won't see it on local posts).
now, for the explanation of why that is important…the best I can do is by comparison, so if it doesn't make sense to you, do ask for clarifications.
here it goes…federation on lemmy is like email, sometimes messages don't get through due to the server being unreachable. lemmy will try to resend those affected comments, but it can't keep doing so forever.
so if the server remains unreachable for too long, there will be comments that are not synchronized to it. besides that, if you are the first person to subscribe to a remote community, only the original posts are retrieved, new comments will come in as they are posted across the fediverse, but not old ones.
I guess (haven't really looked for a proof of it) what is guaranteed is you'll see nested comments in which users from your instance have participated in, but for others you'll have to keep in mind the possibility of there being comments that could be "missing".
which brings us to that colored icon, it is available for both original posts and comments. but I think it is more important for posts, if you click on it and see a comment on the source instance that has not synchronized properly to your instance, you can copy the url of the chain/link icon, switch back to your instance, and search for it.
that should force synchronize that particular comment (and its parent comments) over to your instance, and with that you'll be able to reply to a comment that was originally "missing". I hope this helps and isn't overly confusing. for more information, you can have a look at the lemmy documentation.

Excited to see my bro next week XD has been a while since 4 of us having a meal together and sharing stupid stuffs with each other hahahahahah
Hey guys, I just made an account here after hearing that making an account on the lemmy instance nearer your location would improve loading times. It is true loading speeds are great but I am seeing only few of the communities from other instances. For example I can't find the !lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world over here on monyet.cc Why is that so?
when searching for communities, watch out for the couldnt_find_object error, that can mean you've got the url syntax wrong, usually (also the error doesn't appear every time, and I've only seen it in the browser not apps, but when it does you should double check the url)

Ever find it amusing that Americans don't call it "July 4th" like how they usually read out dates?
Been using wefwef, it’s pretty slick. Very similar to Apollo. Just that lemmy.world, kbin.social and monyet.cc are still quite slow and underpopulated right now so not a lot of content.
Tambah content time! Oh that reminds me to promote this instance brb
Aiya, still quite early mah. Reddit didn't took off until years later. At the mean time why not post some meme or food or cat pic 👀

Q to the techies: would link clickthroughs from instances and just fedi in general be recognizable to the web admin of the news sites (for example)? Just thinking how soon before news and public sites notice (esp with twt being on fire, reddit being on its way too, and fb/ig being unnavigable) fedi visits and actually start reorienting themselves.
(It's so embarassing - I can find Indonesian media, Singaporean media and journalists, Filipino tak payah cakaplah - even their institutions and unis are coming onboard, even Thai news and public sector content in English! But Malaysia........ KWSP or khazanah got stock in twitter or what?)
you're probably thinking of the "referer" http header.
it's certainly possible that the admins of news sites could be tracking that, but monyet.cc sets a "referer-policy" of "same-origin", which as far as I know prevents that from leaking to other sites.
kbin.social, on the other hand, doesn't seem set this policy (but I just looked at the front page, and didn't investigate further).
