Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

How would it work, technically, on a dynamic website? Any given url may load different content.
The content of the graffiti/comments isn't being hosted on the server of the location you're ending at. You just tie it to the url, same as it worked before. Ignore search strings and tracking tags and that's it. Nothing has changed on that end.
But if I'm on example.com/feed and I see posts [1,2,3] based on my user and whatever algorithm is there, and you're on example.com/feed and you see posts [4,5,6], how would it know? Same url, completely different content.
I guess it would work on pages that have a fixed url, like news articles.
You can't account for viewing the same dynamic content across all pages on the Internet. Nothing is consistent, and stuff changes. I don't think it really matters though. Commenting on dynamic content is a function of social media or the site itself, not a third party addon. It would still be useful without that
Good question, this is not an issue I dont think these days. people can correct like wiki
