Babe I love you but… not that much!?!?!? 😛

Omg Lemmy still auto plays videos WITH SOUND :-(, I miss my PieFed account so much right now (Cloudflare issue - it happens sometimes).

Counterpoint: number must go up! 💲💰💸🤑

Actually the OG is ☆ Yσɠƚԋσʂ ☆ ([email protected]), although we can see the cross-posting chain as well as the true OC attribution in the lower right corner so perhaps no real need to provide such a mention at all?

Answer ready: it is 42. Now, would you like to know the question?

So should I like… downvote this one then? 🤪

Depending on where you are, maybe just “cd”.

Except the OP image says .exe so that’s not all that came in the package…

And it’s not even one creature or even type of creature. Look up rhizobium.

Tbf, as we learn more about our gut microbiomes, it turns out that humans are that way as well. Maybe that’s why we have the thoughts in our heads vs. the feelings in our guts… (no that’s actually not it at all, except… isn’t it though?).

So it’s a B.A.T. signal detector? 🤪🦇

(Account issues so trying again)

I got busy and did not respond sooner, but wanted to say that I think you are correct: it’s not merely the listing of Topics, which e.g. an RSS reader could do, but rather their ranking of those topics that was an enormous part of made Reddit so popular.

Although didn’t some forums offer that functionality, even if not all?

So as you say it’s the Threaded content, ranked by users as to priority order, that people want to see.

This ofc is all justification after the fact for us here - for whatever reason, people decided on that name, whether they should have or not, and I guess now the question is would a better name be worth the pain of switching? :-)

Wow you went right there to the edge, didn’t you? (username checks out!)

No I did mean up & downvotes, and you added a good perspective. I don’t use Mastodon and my main experience there was Kbin, now Mbin, which has both Boosts and actual upvotes (and reduces, which aren’t shown, and downvotes).

I think you are correct: the voting was always the core behind why people liked Reddit, as compared to others at the time.

Although it seems like people are more adamant about remaining with Threadiverse, for the sake of history.

But if a new term was to be used, it would be good for it to reflect voting. Like Forumverse does, perhaps?

Yeah something is screwy - PieFed.social is most definitely aware of lemy.lol (see this at https://piefed.social/instance/lemy.lol), but the last post it has from your own account seems to be nine months ago, and the second link on that page I linked, to “Posts” yields an error.

Nor does this portion of the conversation appear in this version of the OP (see here, which should have all of these responses below it but they are lacking there).

So apologies, I guess it’s not just the tool, rather the issue is wider than that: either your instance lemy.lol or PieFed.social (or both) are not communicating in the standard manner with one another. Fwiw, PieFed.social seems to have no trouble federating with (any? at least the vast majority?) of other Lemmy instances? But I will leave that to you and rimu to work out:-).

Topicverse sounds kinda nice.

To be fair, people were using Threadiverse before Meta revealed that they were working on their Threads. And now they do not want to switch?

Thank you for your contribution:-).

The word itself sounds nice, but is the least inclusive.

That’s like saying that all of these conversations that we all have are on Lemmy.World? Sure, it’s between 50 and 80% true (users and the most active communities, respectively, including this one we are in now), but it misses a ton of nuance and detail there.

PieFed, Mbin, and now nodebb, with others on the way (flarum, perhaps Sublinks) also exist.

So why call this all “Lemmy”, when that’s only a part - granted, by far the majority portion - of the whole?
