You’re good to go.
As long as posts aren’t ads disguised as posts, and it’s EDC related, there’s no problem.
Pocket dumps are nice, not mandatory.

Is this a joke?
Leave the politics elsewhere please
Hey, keep it friendly. That’s not in the spirit of civil hobby discussion we look for here
Good news! It works! You can indeed use old backups, and it (so far) works without issue
And it is glorious!
Everything is gorgeous :)
It’s like coming home after a long trip.
I have found a bug though. Logging in to sh.itjust.works seems to cause crashes that other instances don’t (so far). Lemmy.world, ttrpg.network, and sopuli.xyz haven’t crashed at all so far. Haven’t tested any others yet since I want to take a bit to just enjoy the app.
Seriously, Dawson, thank you for this :)
Edit: found a very minor thing in the comment markdown menu. The >!spoiler!< markdown on lemmy is different than reddit uses. The >! Doesn’t work here.
Spoiler is weird on lemmy. It’s

Supposedly. However, it doesn’t actually work at all in most apps.
The reddit >! Works in sync, but not elsewhere.
I dunno, I was up and running in five minutes. You pick an instance, you sign up, you verify the email, and you’re good to go. What server doesn’t matter much, barring it closing unexpectedly and without warning. There’s not enough users to need more than a handful.
Eh, if it were easier to block an instance as a user, I’d be 100% with you instead of 95%.
There are instances that are batshit crazy. Since blocking an instance as a user just ain’t possible yet, I can see why defederation before trouble gets going is useful. Once the nasty side of the internet gets snowballing, it’s much harder to manage.
Troll, or serious extremist, some things are just cancerous.

Aha! That got it. Three colons. Spoiler, then the text for the spoiler listing, an enter, n closing `::: and then it works. It doesn’t work without the enter before the spolied text, which is just confusing and annoying imo. The >! Markdown is so much better.
But! You can enter anything after the initial ::: spoiler
as the text to show before clicking

It’s working on mobile browser for me, but not on jerboa. Jerboa doesn’t seem to recognize several markdown notations.
that’s a screenshot with the spoiler entry from the little triangle with an ! In it from the entry box
Edit: and the jerboa update didn’t bring full markdown support lol
I’m not seeing a problem with that statement
Damn, you aren’t playing around :)
You can, it’ll just be a struggle.
If you stand firm, you can get enough people to recognize that there are viable alternatives, and once you hit a decent number of friends and family, it takes over on its own.
I wouldn’t fault them as much if they hadn’t dumped the capital into absurdly dumb things to try and become facebook. If they’d invested it into better reliability and reducing costs to operate, I’d have a ton of sympathy.
I dunno, the way they’ve (board members, ceo, admins involved in trying to spin things, etc) been acting, it’s pretty obvious they don’t want the engaged, active users back. They want to turn it into an ad server and user tracking hub like facebook.
Maybe if they can spez, build a new board of directors, and walk back everything they’ve done totally, I might be willing to use it passively but directly (as in reading things there via my app of choice, but not interacting) rather than only indirectly via search results when the only hits are there.
That ain’t gonna happen. If they don’t do that, my last act will be to find replacement mods for the places I’m responsible for, and then I’m gone totally. I’d have done it already, but I’d have to use reddit to recruit anyone at all, and I’m not willing to do that until the protest is over.
Hell, I’ve thought about just doing enough mod actions that admins would have to break their own rules to oust me, and leaving them locked. But I don’t like shitting on communities of people just because the site has gone to shit.
It doesn’t take much. There’s no reports, and nobody has done anything to break rules.
Everything that went wrong with reddit turned me into a passive user. I scroll, but I rarely vote or comment.
Besides, I burnt all the bridges during the protests and by refusing to play nice afterwards. I couldn’t go back if I wanted to, not without jumping through hoops to make a new account and keep it isolated. Fuck reddit, fuck spez. And, fuck r/edc too. I did my best, it wasn’t good enough, so that’s that.
