I wasted like a minute looking through your post history to realize you meant a comment. Fix your comment. While you’re at it, link to your other comment instead of just saying “down below”, because it was above your comment it in my app.
It’s easy, here’s the link: https://sh.itjust.works/comment/1176164
Thanks! I just spent the last 2 hours reading random math and science articles. Mostly blog posts.
Notable ones I read:
You’re confusing posts and comments.
Makes sense to me, but I’ve read the opposite.
Anyone got a source that explains how it really works?
Jerboa is an app, not an instance.
Update: it’s all working now.
I don’t see any of my subscriptions at all. Whether they are local or remote, and if I tap on one which I favorited in Connect for Lemmy, I get an error.
You can’t prove any of your assertions. It’s all supposition. Meanwhile, history has many examples of corporations doing exactly what people are fearing. Like what Google did to XMPP, and Microsoft did to Kerberos. It’s wise to be wary.
There’s even a Wikipedia article on the tactic Microsoft uses: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embrace,_extend,_and_extinguish
You’re taking a realistic possibility and poo-pooing it when you don’t know anything about the history of corporations destroying open source standards.
I wonder if that’s why I woke up to 8 inbox replies from up to 3 days ago. 😄
Defederate unequivocally.
I don’t see why a delete command couldn’t be federated in exactly the same way an upvote or comment is.
It’s not always about being decent. Sometimes people doxx themselves by accident, and should be allowed to delete their comments. Especially if they start getting harassed by some nut. Sometimes stalkers can piece together info from old comments.
If they do delete it and it doesn’t make the content irretrievable, I’m not sure they can edit the comment at that point to remove the info. They will now have lost control of it.
I realize that deleting isn’t perfect because of archive sites, screenshots, and whatever else. But at the very basic level, people should be able to actually delete their comments.
This feature already exists. When I block a community in an Android app and go to the website at sh.itjust.works, and look at my Preferences > Blocks, I see the community I just blocked in my app, even if they are on a remote instance.
So, I guess I don’t understand the problem.
Yeah, I eventually figured that out and edited my post and deleted my comment. Still weird how I got unsubscribed, and even weirder that trying to view the community in Connect showed a different one entirely.

It literally blows my mind that people seem to think otherwise. Especially since the admins hosting an instance are basically running a charity. If you don’t want to be on an instance that occasionally defederates from ones that defend hate speech, then go find a different instance, or start your own.
There are two settings: Interface language, and then a list of languages you choose to see. “Unspecified” and English were already on as languages I see, and I turned off German and another so I stop seeing those posts. I don’t see what my “interface” language has to do with commenting, though.
I found another thread in which I had problems replying, and it turns out the comments to which I could not reply were all from kbin users.
I couldn’t comment unless I set this comment to English.
How do you set a specific comment to English? I’m having language errors left and right.
Nope, and I tried it in both Firefox and a chromium based browser just in case.
