Idk what the culture is over there but it was just a bit funny to see the entire thread I was replying to just removed. Like that doesn’t happen here on kbin lmao. a bit of a culture clash there I guess.
I wonder if that’s the norm for lemmy and beehaw? Here on kbin basically nothing is removed it seems. at least for now.
@Otome-chan report this one lol I’ll see if it works here
tchambers: If you stumble upon a report to delete this, go ahead. I wanna see who the delete shows under in mod log

Lol it doesn’t tell me it’s reported… Probably because it’s my comment
More learning has happenedCan you report your own comment?
went ahead and reported my own comment. hopefully that works.
well, i understand nothing. i see reports from neither my comment nor yours that you reported, i tried to delete yours anyway and i suspected since i saw no report to act on, it listed me as the action taker…
@tchambers, can you see a report on a comment for any comments in this thread? also i saw you delete and restore a comment of mine, how did you do that?
Beehaw definitely had its own standard they try to uphold. Just means choosing your instance is important to your experience.
Yup. Choosing an instance is quite important, but also difficult to actually do when you’re new to the platform. kinda a catch-22. it’s hard to tell which instance you’re a good “fit” for before you start using the fediverse, and once you’re on the fediverse you already have an instance.
There really should be a guide or something showing the largest instances, what their ethos/views are towards the fediverse, etc. Beehaw makes this pretty clear and have written several posts on it. But outside of just going to beehaw and looking at that, there’s not really a way to know.
It’s easy enough to get the vibe of users from an instance by interacting with them a bit, but that implies you’re already on the fediverse.
There’s been some attempt to do what you mentioned already
For sure. It would be interesting if a method to migrate instances was built into the backend of lemmy, but this could potentially cause a lot of headache for instance owners as well. Probably not in the cards, but would solve this problem for sure.
Interesting
I’m already noticing “cultural” differences between the different instances, almost like they’re virtual countries with their own traditions, but still able to see and talk to each other
It’s beautifully chaotic and open, like the Internet should be!
Yup. that’s kinda how it feels to me. I saw someone describe it as lemmy is america and the lemmy instances are the states. and then kbin is canada lol.
America isn’t run by tankies.
*so far
hun this is kbin not lemmygrad
