Yeah, it sounds like her joke was met with a lot of resistance.
Same, and now I’m down to my last instance.
VLemmy, my previous main just…poof, vanished.
.world is on the fritz.
Please .one keep it together.
Yeah, who knows how good those admin tools are. Maybe he can nuke all content posted to and from certain instances at once?
Yes I believe that’s him. Yeah, he might be in cold sweat mode. I’ve been there, but not with legal issues just down servers. It sounded like he “was spoken to” by someone about the local laws. That’s gotta suck.
Oh that’s from him?? Then yeah that’s what this seems like. But that’s exactly what I would do if illegal and risky shit ended up on my server. But I would post to another instance, Mastodon, or something to let users know what’s going on.
(feel bad I forgot his name and obviously can’t check now, he appears to be a great admin)
But…
{gestures at OP’s comment}
This is my main instance. Been solid for weeks since I signed up. I’m using my first from .one now. Not sure where to go for Q&A. Is there a Discord, Mastodon, Gangnam Style’s comment section on YouTube I can goto??
If you take away what the people want
You’re gonna have a bad time. ⛷️
So there’s a couple of thoughts here, and I’ve only experimented a little bit.
You can post directly from your Mastodon account to a community by calling out the community by its address like @fediverse@lemmy.world in your post (toot) (don’t think anything will happen by me using it here). You’ll see the Mastodon post as a community style post in the community like this: https://lemmy.world/post/1222638
You can my click my mas.to profile and see some things in the Lemmy context - not my verified links, but things like my profile picture and background, bio, Cake day, sending me a message.
I don’t know how to interact with Mastodon users viaa Lemmy or Kbin. Like above if I reference my Mastodon user @hemmes@mas.to I don’t believe anything happens.
So OP’s only options are posting a snapshot or, my choice, he can add the Mastodon post link to his Lemmy community post (in the header not the body) and have the same results as any other web link - the Mastodon media would get a thumbnail in the community post listing, with maybe some relevant content preview, etc. While that will deliver a superior viewing experience, that’s not actually communicating with ActivityPub through the Fediverse, it’s simply a web link to the Mastodon instance server’s user’s post.
Edit: Okay, so it looks like mentioning my mas.to handle does indeed alert me (almost instantly in this case), that’s cool!
