Seeing two horses fighting. The sheer size of them is enough to scare me, but getting aggresive biting and kicking was something else.

[-] livus@kbin.social 16 points 9 months ago

@Truffle yes. Especially Clydesdales. When they kick each other you can feel the ground shake like a small earthquake.

Did you just @ the person you're replying to....? All my years of reddit and lemmy I've never seen someone do that.

[-] HipsterTenZero@dormi.zone 6 points 9 months ago

its a fediverse phenomenon. Mastodon users @ by default

[-] livus@kbin.social 5 points 9 months ago

@M137 yeah. It's because I'm on Kbin which auto-populates an @ in the reply field (this is because Kbin federates/interacts with Mastodon as well as the Lemmys, and Mastodon uses @s).

Sometimes I'm lazy and don't remove it, and sometimes I do it on purpose because threading is still a bit hit and miss and it helps me keep track of who I'm replying to.

@M137 btw here's an example of some mastodon users interacting on a kbin thread. @s are the only way they can see who is replying to whom.
