    It worked.

    I was able to put the group's Fediverse ID at the bottom of the post (from Mastodon).

    How attached are you to your username?
  • reiver reiver 1y ago 100%

    @thelsim

    Some people call me by my username ("reiver") when they meet me in person.

    To me, it is as much my name as my given-names are.

    ...

    When I consider signing up for a new platform — if my preferred username isn't available, I often won't join.

    ...

    Which never used to be a problem — as it is an obscure English word using its archaic spelling —

    But, there are a lot more people on the Internet now, than there were two or more decades ago. So sometimes it gets taken by someone else.

  • What's something that's not common knowledge but you think everyone should know?

    @RatzChatsubo @angrystego

    DNA sometimes moves from mitochondria to the cellular nucleus.

    This can lead to speciation.

  • your girlfriend gets an unencrypted copy of all your files. What happens?
  • reiver reiver 1y ago 100%

    @original_ish_name

    I'll just replace "girlfriend" with "wife" since I am married —

    Nothing happens. My wife knows me well. There isn't anything I think would surprise her.

  • Is there a fediverse software that has "trending" posts?

    @HughJanus @Lazycog

    Do you recall which Firefish servers you tried (that were having stability problems)?

    @cygnus_velum

    Yes.

    There isn't much that could make me not want to have kids.

    ...

    I actually already have children. It is one of the best things I have ever done in my life.

  • How do you guys remember the early days of the internet? What do you miss about it?

    @nivenkos @Ransom

    Ha! 🙂 — I did that too back in the day.

    But only to friends, as a joke.

    This was back before e-mail spam was a thing.

  • Communities should be able to move servers
  • reiver reiver 1y ago 100%

    @hitmyspot

    It is all automatic.

    You maintain the same relationship after the move.

    If you just followed them, but they didn't follow you — that continues after the move.

    If they just followed you, but you didn't follow them — that continues after the move.

    If you followed each other — that continues after the move.

    It is all automatic.

    ...

    As a user, if someone who follows you moves their account, you see that as a new follow in your notifications.

  • Would you explore space if given the chance? Why or why not?
  • reiver reiver 1y ago 100%

    @Euraru

    Yes — assuming it is safe — I have a family to support and care for (so have to think of them, too).

    I want to see what's there — and see it first hand for myself.

    Similar reason why I travel to different parts of the world to see things.

    I think this is more than just curiosity.

  • reiver reiver 1y ago 100%

    @hitmyspot @hot_milky

    That is what happens on Mastodon now when someone moves their account from one server to another — you get a notification of them following you from the other server.

  • Is Lemmy your first time on the Fediverse?
  • reiver reiver 1y ago 100%

    @Ghast

    I'm not sure if that is a question or not, but in case it is —

    Yes, that is correct.

    What are about Mastodon, that you like, that Pleroma lacks?

  • do you think the fediverse could replace popular social media
  • reiver reiver 1y ago 90%

    @Bicyclejohn

    It depends on what you mean by "replace".

    The Fediverse may cause centralized social-media networks to join the Fediverse.

    There are some hints of that happening now.

    Facebook / Meta has created a new social-media network that is part of the Fediverse.

    Tumblr and Flickr are said to be joining the Fediverse.

    So, some "popular social media" may become one with the Fediverse.
