HOPING TO EXPLAIN BETTER:

Sorry. Perhaps the thoughts were not clear, but have watched a lot of videos and even Wikipedia makes it seem like they are all social networks and that one can follow / post / reply on the other networks:

It isn’t about following everything and everyone, but about not wanting to have a Pixelfed account to follow a photographer, or not needing a Lemmy account to follow interesting topics, or not needing a Mastodon account to follow a blogger / writer. It is perhaps then a bit oversimplified on the “intro to the fediverse” videos / posts that’s been seen on the web. Was hoping to have one single account on any of the above, and then just interact from there, and not needing an account for every single one of them.

Apologies, misunderstanding, posted apology above too. English isn’t first language. Was trying to do the “change my mind” meme format they use on other sites to ask someone to prove you wrong, which is what was hoped for.

Apologies again.

This is what makes the Fediverse so frustrating, been using: #Kbin #FireFish #Mastodon #Friendica #IceShrimp #Lemmy.

And no, they don’t speak to one another / find one another or are able to follow / like / reply to one another as one is told the Fediverse works.

The truth: some speak to some, and it rarely works both ways. Eg. Mastodon can do a lot more interacting with Lemmy, but not the other way around.

And then there are those that defederate from their own kind / federated social network, splintering the Fediverse even further apart.

Have had to either join new servers + delete current accounts, just because the server that was suggested, happened to be a server that others chose to defederate with.

Now with many accounts + many instances, been trying to find the best place to just have one space in the Fediverse + be able to communicate, follow and interact with other Fediverse users.

Maybe it’s this is wrong, but this has been the experience for almost a year now.

EDIT: APOLOGY

Seems like there are multiple posts, that was not the intention. :-(

This makes no sense, really sorry. Made a post and when looking for it, it just showed nothing. Look here is a screenshot of my personal feed. It only shows the comment on a fediverse post, which I then created into a stand-alone post, in hoping someone would be able to explain or prove me wrong.

And I can’t even go and delete the posts, as when looking inside the posts on my profile, it shows nothing either.

REALLY sorry for the multiple posts, thought the app was bugging out. :-(

Really sorry. Will check on laptop to see if I can find and delete the multiple posts from there…

This is what makes the Fediverse so frustrating. Been using it for months, with Kbin, FireFish, Mastodon, Friendica, IceShrimp and Lemmy.

And no, they do not speak to one another, find one another or are able to follow / like / reply to one another as one would think the Fediverse works, based on all the videos and illustrations and introductions to the Fediverse.

The truth: some speak to some, and it rarely works both ways. Mastodon has a lot more that it can do with interacting with Lemmy, than the other way around.

And then there are those that defederate from their own kind / federated social network, splintering the Fediverse even further apart.

Have had to either join new , delete accounts, create with new accounts again, just because the server that was suggested or chosen, have been chosen as a server to defederate with.

Now with many accounts and many networks and servers, been trying to find the best place to just have one space in the Fediverse and be able to communicate and follow and interact with other lovely Fediverse users.

Maybe it’s a misunderstanding from this side, but this has been the experience for almost a year now.

Hi there,

Been using a keywords list on Lemmy to filter out specific words or topics. It works well with the posts, but not in comments of posts.

Is there something being misunderstood? Please help, would be greatly appreciated! :-)

This comment is blank in the @voyagerapp but when opened in a browser, not logged in, it shows a video player with no video to play?

Anybody else experiencing this? :-/

Hi everyone,

Not sure if it’s possible, but would like to know if there is something like this:

  1. Can one use just one app / social network to follow the other Fediverse social networks?

  2. And if so, does any app / social network allow for bulk loading a list of keywords to use for blocking. (Everything seems to allow to only insert one word at a time….???)

Have had other Fediverse social accounts in the past, but the splintering and keywords issue always becomes a mission. Very surprised that even Twitter / X also only allows one word at a time. Instagram, Facebook and Threads allow for bulk loading with commas, which is also great.

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but assume some of you might be on other Fedi networks as well? ANY help would be greatly appreciated.

NOTE: using an iPhone, so Android apps won’t work unfortunately. :-(

Saw now that the simple question posted on here was reported and removed by a moderator without a chance to defend oneself.

  1. It was an honest and simple question, no harm or trolling was intended. What if it was asked by somebody who was actually curious and wanted to know more? The responses and downvotes and reporting definitely would put this person off for life.

  2. Not having a lot of exposure to these things, and not knowing all the rules and ways of the internet, this whole thing seems to have blown put of proportion and something that could have been a civil conversation, turned into an attack.

Again, was being sincere and didn’t mean any harm by the simple question. But what’s done, is done, we guess… :-l

[-] PlasticPigeon@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

Sounds less like a positive move and more like a run from problems.

You will find the same problems in the next region, if you live there long enough.

Speaking from someone who has been in 13 schools and moved even more than that.

What in the actual wow is this positive comment and how did this radiantly joyful kid even get onto our evil Fediverse?

[-] PlasticPigeon@lemmy.world 15 points 8 months ago
  1. Also a Tildes.net user.
  2. Where would Beehaw go to?
  3. Sad that we're blocked for no reason. :-/
  4. If the Fediverse can’t keep instances connected and aligned, then there’s not much hope for when Meta’s Threads joins. It will be defederation deluxe.
  5. Maybe that’s their whole plan. ;-)
