that’s strange, you might want to contact your instance admins then

hi i’m the guy behind canvas & also the admin on toast.ooo

last couple days i’ve been fixing things w/ my lemmy instance, but it should load now

(ik it’s like 4 days late lol)

@user works on all fediverse platforms, but !community does not

i was proposing for this to be a possible solution to make it work across all existing platforms w/o requiring all the other platforms to support lemmy’s system

if using lemmy, it could automatically make this change

this would primarily be used by other fedi platforms to easily differentiate community & users

eg if i followed @sc07@group.toast.ooo on mastodon it would for sure follow !sc07@toast.ooo and not @sc07@toast.ooo (an account with the same identifier)

but if you search a community up on another fedi platform, it won’t always pick the community or the user (if they have the same name)

as far as the other platforms know, there’s one actor but points to two different accounts

afaik the webfinger spec doesn’t allow for multiple actors having the same identifier, like how lemmy does it (here’s what gets returned when a username matches a community and user)

how I was thinking about it the instance owners would pick the subdomain the communities would be placed on, everything would still route through the main host but external interactions (like following a community) would be routed through the subdomain

eg for blahaj.zone’s lemmy instance it could be setup as users sending in @lemmy.blahaj.zone and communities ending in @group.lemmy.blahaj.zone or something like that

not every community would have it’s own subdomain, no

community actors would just have the hostname part be a different domain eg

users:

• @UserA@toast.ooo
• @UserB@toast.ooo

communities:

• @CommunityA@group.toast.ooo
• @CommunityB@group.toast.ooo

Could you link to what instance it’s hosted on? (Eg !casualconversation@<instance>)

so that’s why it felt wrong typing that…

That site is so chalked full chock-full of ads that it made my phone incredibly warm wow

hackliberty.org still links to it, although it returns a service unavailable, so it looks unmaintained

Also the most recent forum post is about how covid is a hoax

Having a name for a version would be nice for each major release (1.0.0 would have a name but 1.x.x wouldn’t, but 2.0.0 would, etc)

ejabberd recently announced full matrix federation at the server level, so there’s hope

If I remember correctly, apple also made it so iPad apps automatically work on the Vision Pro unless if the dev explicitly disables it, which is also a plus
