I believe in Lemmy, in replies (but not in the original message), including a Fediverse ID sends the reply to that address. So I hope they'll come take a look. Yes, it's officially their account.

I agree with your annoyance. Good luck!

You might want to include @protonprivacy@mastodon.social

You've ascended! You're now part of the real world!

Trying our best

I used a straight edge. They aren't lined up.

I found numerous references to it documented on the Internet, before posting it

I have a Mastodon, Friendica, Peertube, and a PieFed instance. I'm an Admin.

Let me make sure I understand. You are asking whether I would care if you were using my server, and you asked a different server Admin to remove your data from their server (and probably ban you on that server)?

If this is what you are asking, I personally wouldn't give it any thought. It's your data. If you don't want it on some other server, then you certainly have that right. I frankly don't think any Admin would have a problem with this. Even the opposite would be fine. If someone asked me to remove their data that came in remotely.

I might even be impressed that you are enforcing and thinking about your rights to privacy and your right to control your own data.

Thanks, Chris!

Elasticsearch is optional. It's great for public servers but probably of little value for self-hosted instances.

Like everything that you publish, this is an awesome document!

Everyone is answering about wearing a mask, when the poster clearly makes the point that they don't have one. They can't just poof it from the air. The answers are not helpful.

The question is about whether shallow breathing and nose or mouth breathing is better. It's a very particular question. An interesting question.

Does anyone know, with real scientific knowledge, what the answer to this specific question is? Can anyone answer to the specific question?

Agreed. I've had these blocked on my Mastodon and Friendica instances since a few days ago for just this reason.

I see your post here on a PieFed instance, so it apparently is federating.

I closed my X account a long time ago solely because of Musk.

However, I agree completely with you. Many people have an intolerance for anyone who makes different choices than they do. Look at the brouhaha over federating with Threads. Some admins block other instances solely because they don't block Threads and then follow up with hateful messages. They sound so much like that one person they hate so much.

Showing people that it can be just as toxic in the Fediverse doesn't help.

I think people should stop hassling others who think differently and stop the whining. I'm with you on this.

So far, I'm liking it. There was a long article about zoning board business in my town. It gave me a beautiful summary. I asked for more specifics about one item, and it gave it to me. I've only had it installed for 15 minutes, and so far, I'm liking it!

Thanks for posting this. This information helps to make better decisions on the ballot questions!

As one Admin to another, I'm sad to hear that we're losing a good instance. And, I'm sorry that people ruined your fun.

Thanks for all you've done. All the best to you.

The key word here is "connected" instances. You don't find hashtag-related posts from all the servers, just the servers that your server is connected to and also only posts that your server has seen from other servers.

This is why, on my instance, I relay with over 300 other instances, some of them are the larger ones. All the posts they see on their server are duplicated onto my smaller server. The impact is that while my server is small, it has the same messages as one of the large servers which makes for a better experience. Note that Mastodon.social does not relay with any other instance. Not that most instances could possibly hold all their posts and accounts anyway.

When I search for hashtags on my instance, I do get a lot of hits.

Many smaller servers do not relay as much as I do, or at all, because it requires disk space to store all the posts, images, and accounts that are streaming in constantly from all these other servers. I don't have these concerns because I have unlimited capacity. So, the experience will vary depending on which server your account is on.

You have to use hashtags on Mastodon if you want your messages to be seen because there is no AI to fill timelines. People follow hashtags and search for them. Then you'll get likes and boosts.

And, you control your own timeline by following hashtags, following people, and searching for hashtags. This way, unlike Twitter, your timeline only has posts that you are interested in. Once you get this set up, it's quite nice to only see posts that you like reading, without advertising and without posts meant to enrage you.
