The Fediverse strikes back (thecanadian.social)

Alt text:

Star wars meme: Mon Mothma (Mastodon) stands before 5 other men/admirals (Writefreely, Lemmy, Peertube, Pixelfed, Friendica). She says: "The emperor has made a critical error and the time for our attack has come."

Kudos for that great alt-text

[-] maxmalrichtig@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 2 years ago

I stole it. I stole every last piece of it. (See original post on mastodon.)

We shall all thank @edumario@thecanadian.social for it. ๐Ÿ˜‡

[-] rizoid@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I don't think I can use peertube. It's just not as good and it's way harder to host video content server wise. I just use a privacy respecting front end for YouTube. Everything else I'm on board with.

Inb4 Google pulls an Elon and starts requiring sign-ins, which will kill Invidious and Piped, along with a lot of their userbase.

[-] SilentStorms@lemmy.fmhy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

I don't think Google is that stupid. A very significant portion of users never log in, more than Twitter. They'd lose so much ad revenue.

[-] syboxez@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago

Yeah. I could definitely see them implementing some sort of IP-based rate limiting, though.

[-] WhoRoger@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

We have !starwarsmemes@lemmy.world, post it there too! Weird how these last 3 days everyone started posting SW memes everywhere but there

[-] Cuttlefishcarl@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

Good god, it's all beans over there, too! I don't like beans. They're sticky and squishy and irritating and they get everywhere.

[-] maxmalrichtig@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 2 years ago

I actually did when I created the post. (See the list of crossposts.)

But thanks for reminding people and pointing out other interesting comms.

[-] WhoRoger@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Must be a federation problem, because I don't see the cross post link, nor the post in the community (I'm a mod) when looking through lemmy.world. Unfortunate. I wonder what would happen if someone reported a post or comment I can't even see.

Ed: ok it got fixed. I searched for the post url and that refreshed it.

[-] maxmalrichtig@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 2 years ago

Well, that's kind of a wild bug there. ๐Ÿคท

I just edited the crosspost in hope that it would refederate, but I don't think it worked as expected. Sorry.

[-] WhoRoger@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago

I searched for the post url on my instance. One of our actions fixed it, it shows up now.

Not your fault, and thanks.

[-] maxmalrichtig@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 2 years ago

Awesome! Somehow, I love the quirkiness of federated platforms. Kind of gives it character. ๐Ÿ˜†

[-] WhoRoger@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

It just stresses me out hah. Last week I needed something from people on 2 other instances and my post wouldn't show up for them, except for a short window when our server was upgraded. Then everyone was like "I can see your post!" for an hour or so and then poof gone again.

If you're up to playing, would you try deleting the swmemes post and reposting again? I wanna see what happens and if it works, we'll at least have a new meme other than fucking beans...

[-] maxmalrichtig@discuss.tchncs.de 0 points 2 years ago

Sure! I just deleted it on my end. Post still seems to be on lemmy.world. I'll wait a little and see if the deletion gets federated and then repost.

[-] WhoRoger@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Man this is bollocks. Ok I deleted it as mod, try to crosspost again?

[-] maxmalrichtig@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 2 years ago

Done. Seems like it worked fine. I can see it on lemmy.world.

[-] WhoRoger@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Yay we fixed the world! Everything gonna be perfect now!

Basically aaaaaanything that spez or spacekaren are doing? I mean, the whole established social media landscape is burning right now, giving the Fediverse a huge push.

[-] wallmenis@lemmy.one 2 points 2 years ago

Oh... I just thought that something more specific happened... Ok!

[-] maxmalrichtig@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 2 years ago

No worries. Just the usual downfall of digital society. No special occasion. ๐Ÿ˜…

[-] syboxez@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

The US Federal Reserve raised interest rates, which means VCs are investing less, meaning that operating at a loss is becoming less profitable, which is leading to Big Tech's greed becoming much more obvious.

[-] wallmenis@lemmy.one 3 points 2 years ago

Who would have thought that dumping money on something just because it is cool, would not be a good idea!

[-] lowleveldata@programming.dev 1 points 2 years ago

Let's all meditate for a minute and chant "fuck spez" in our mind

[-] TacoButtPlug@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago

lol SpaceKaren - I agree wholly

[-] MondaySunday21@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Anyone have the sauce on what reddit traffic is looking like post July 1?

[-] TheFrirish@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

well if we're going to make a dent we're gonna need some jedis

[-] huessy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

Am I the only nerd here who is bugged that the title is about ESB, but the still and the quote are from RotJ?
