It really would be so much easier to just boost Mastodon posts into a Lemmy community.

[–] shoulderoforion@fedia.io 41 points 1 week ago (2 children)

that's crazy talk, next you'll be telling us we should be able to actually block people from seeing and interacting with our posts

Hopefully whenever mastodon gets quote posts we'll see something similar pop up over here.

[–] atomicpoet@kbin.earth 22 points 1 week ago (4 children)

You don't need to wait on Mastodon to do it.

Obviously, I'm not talking about you specifically -- Threadiverse devs generally.

For example, some of this functionality already exists on Friendica.

I'm sure I've read this headline before and nothing came of it then.

[–] TrueStoryBob@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

Automattic declined to share a time frame as to when the migration would be complete, given its scale, but a rep for the company called the progress so far “exciting.”

Yeah, they've been talking about this for years now.

I'll believe it when I see it

Why did you link to a Mastodon post and not the actual article?

[–] Sergio@slrpnk.net 34 points 1 week ago (3 children)

The article seems well-written, except that:

the fediverse — the open social web powered by the protocol ActivityPub also used by Mastodon, Threads, Flipboard, and others.

Seriously? Flipboard has like one thousand Monthly Active Users and we have like 50 times that, but we're like "and others" lel... I guess they didn't mention Pixelfed either tho and it's a lot "hotter"...

[–] nasi_goreng@lemmy.zip 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That article is intended for casual readers. These people might be more familiar with Flipboard than Lemmy or Pixelfed.

The same way that people are familiar with Blackberry or Nokia despite none of them even reach mainstream market anymore.

I thought tumblr's porn part never recovered after the 2018 purge

[–] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 25 points 1 week ago (2 children)

of all platforms I didn't expect the hellsite to federate.

[–] Scrollone@feddit.it 10 points 1 week ago

They've been recently bought by Automattic (WordPress), so this doesn't surprise me. I wouldn't have expected it if they were still owned by their previous owner though.

Wow, way to try staying relevant I guess? They had a huge following and the porn was flowing during the good times. They blew their chance and now it’s a shell of itself. Fuck Tumblr.

[–] Willowthewisp@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 1 week ago

Oh you mean the one run by a conservative who’s a massive bigot? Greaaaaat.

[–] ColdWater@lemmy.ca 16 points 1 week ago

As long as there's no toxic behaviour from them, I'm more than OK with this

[–] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago (4 children)
