like I said, hashtags are fun, but the fact that even if you follow the hashtag it only shows posts that were already federated into your instance confuses people

communities/groups will federate the posts for you if you follow, but following a hashtag does not give any federation

Even if you could follow hashtags on Lemmy, you would also need to be able to follow users for anything to show up (so that's 2 big new features required). And since it requires following users, that would also mean a culture shift would be required, you'd need to convince your instance-mates to use their Lemmy accounts to follow people, but people are mostly here to follow communities not people.

I'm not against the features being added, I just don't think they're going to be as impactful to the Lemmy platform as expected.

I love this movie so much, along with Total Recall and Starship Troopers

yea I mean it's fun to use and works well if you're on a large instance like mastodon.social, I use it even on a medium size instance

but communities/groups work better on the fediverse, and maybe something in between the 2 could be created, some kind of federated version of hashtags

hashtags don't work well on the Fediverse, a hashtag doesn't have an owning instance which means there's no way to push/pull the content by hashtag

I think Deus Ex (2000). The gameplay is so open and full of possibilities, and the story is crazy but it works so well. It's so replayable.

Group C starting in 7 hours!

IDK Lemmy seems great to me. But if you don't like it, check Mbin https://fedia.io/ and PieFed https://piefed.social/

Speaking of https://lemmyverse.net/ the way you set your Home Instance is by clicking the house icon in the top right, and you would type in retrolemmy.com in there

There's also a small plugin I made which might help slightly with touch screen controls lol

https://github.com/Die4Ever/openrct2-touch-plugin/releases/latest

I wrote it a long time ago before realizing that plugins weren't supported on Android at the time, but they are now!
