This is like when supermarkets put the short-dated food in the ‘reduced’ section: I kinda always expect it to be ‘was £3, now 30p’, but it’s usually ‘was £3, now £2.89’

£390 is so close to the retail price for new, that if was going to get one, I’d probably just do that.

Hey! This guy doesn’t know about the three seashells!

Wanting to end all text communications with ellipses …

All the other comments except from that one are from alien.top (Reddit users turned into bots), which your instance is defederated from.

You’re not kidding. Arriving from the UK into Sydney airport - the heat was unbelievable, but when I was in Melbourne, there was a question of ‘wait? is this weather … shit?’

Ranked by complexity:

1. Demystify the universe
2. Demystify the human brain
3. Demystify our sed scripts

Think we should maybe walk before we run here.

Yeah - if you don’t like a post you ‘reduce’ it, and if you do then you ‘thicken’ it.

Only kidding: they use ‘favourites’

They call them ‘reduces’

I’m guessing it’s an artifact of them supporting both platforms like Lemmy (who’s users make Threads and Comments in Magazines) and platforms like Mastodon (who’s users make Posts and Replies in Microblogs).

If you don’t like that, you’re really not going to like what they call downvotes …

What Peertube needs is for other Fediverse platforms to build in a filter so only posts which contain video are displayed.

Latest PeerTube vids available on PieFed - should be quite handy hopefully, because - as you say - they normally get buried by any sort method that isn’t ‘New’

a.gup.pe tells us - they Announce the post the same way that !fediverse@lemmy.world Announced this post. I’m subscribed to both !photography@a.gup.pe and !fedivere@lemmy.world, so get content from both in the same way.

Yeah - those individual Mastodon posts were tagged with @photography@a.gup.pe by their authors, and a.gup.pe picked up in the tag and made it part of the Group so PieFed could display it in a community.

For example: an original post was https://mastodon.social/@zhhz/113068522102706157 and how it appears on PieFed is https://piefed.social/post/225229

a.gup.pe is a 3rd-party effort to wrangle individual Mastodon posts into Groups, so that Group-based fediverse platforms can follow them (a more familiar term for Group is ‘community’).

Example: https://piefed.social/c/photography@a.gup.pe

Doesn’t look like it. There doesn’t seem to be much of anything about discovering compatible things on other fediverse platforms (e.g. MBIN magazines, a.gup.pe groups, pixelfed groups [if they even exist], PeerTube channels, discourse / hubzilla whatevers, Flipboard thingies, etc).

For PeerTube, a good discovery tool is https://fedi.video, but that also involves tootling around on some other instance and copy/pasting handles back to your own platform, so it’s not exactly that convenient.

It’d be every reply I think.

It’s partially fixable, by interacting with Mastodon the same way PeerTube does and have the community Announce only the posts. For everything else after that, it depends on whether the user is local or not. Anything a local user does could be sent directly, and if a remote user replied to a local user’s post, the local user could send a ‘post update’, for Mastodon to then retrieve the replies collection, circumventing the problem of us not having the remote user’s private keys. But if a remote user replied to a remote user’s post on a local community, they’d be nothing we could do about it (don’t have the keys for the ‘post update’, can’t Announce it without it being spammy either)

There’s not much in the way of communities on PieFed yet. The list is here: https://piefed.social/communities/local?sort_by=last_active%20desc

Following communities from Mastodon works about as well as following Lemmy ones - this is something I’d like to improve, but it’s only very recently that we got a community that wasn’t a meta / testing one. Following users is less spammy, 'cos you’ll get their posts, but not all their comments to other people’s posts, so maybe you could try following someone like Rimu.

Either way, Mastodon doesn’t process outboxes and backfill old stuff, so you’ll have to wait for something new to be posted.

Most of their communities look to be German, but their biggest one - !europe@feddit.org - is English language only

Communities on feddit.de won’t update 'cos the instance is kaput - the replacement is https://feddit.org/
