I knew it! Hans did 9/11

Nennt sich Horse-Race-Berichterstattung.

Matrix is also decentralized/federated, has encryption integrated into the protocol and enjoys a broad adoption and public support. It also has pretty good integration of bots and even other message protocol services like IRC via "bridges". The chat clients are pretty good too; Element is pretty much available for every platform but there's other one's which are more focussed on Desktop or mobile usage, depending on how you primarily use it.

Ui, so eine ungleiche Verteilung von Sanitäranlagen ist natürlich besonders peinlich. Ist ja nicht so, als wären die auf einem Festival optional.

Just type /c/android@lemmy.world and it will automatically create a link in your post.

Es kommt auch noch die Punktevergabe für den Hauspokal!

Kleiner Tipp: Du kannst seit 0.18 übrigens auch nur /c/space@beehaw.org schreiben und deine Instanz wandelt das ganze automatisch in den korrekten lokalen Link um. So wirds bei mir z.B. zum https://lemmy.ml/c/space@beehaw.org Link :)

I'm pretty sure there is no particular reason why it's done this way. It's just the easiest method to coomunicate upvotes across different servers. There are already a lot of ideas for doing it differently or more efficient (e.g. vote aggregation) but that requires a more sophisticated architecture:

• Vote aggregation also makes faking votes much more efficient and requires different detection methods. Of course, a spam server can also invent users or votes but it's a bit more complicated.
• Aggregation in any form can be hard to implement because it should be flexible enough to reduce load but not increase delay or make tracking a consistent state even harder. Finding the right configuration will be difficult and go through a lot of trial and error. Should be easier though now that more people are working on the code.
• Keep in mind that Lemmy should also be able to communicate with other services across the Fediverse like Mastodon via ActivityPub. I'm not sure if there is something in the standard for message aggregation yet. It's definitely being discussed because Mastodon, Pixelfed and Peertube all have or went thorugh the same growth problems as Lemmy in terms of scaling, spam and security concerns. If there's a good solution it will likely come through the AP standard.

Ich glaube nicht, weil Lemmy generell (noch) kein Feature für Accounts folgen hat.

In the browser when you hover over the display name, you should see the full username. I don't know how it's shown in the various apps but it should appear if you view the user's profile.

Aktive Accounts sind anscheinend nur die, die einmal im Monat posten/kommentieren. Lurker werden also nicht mitgezählt.

Thank you, Mrs. Halo!
