Hey, did you know your lemmy account is set to appear as a bot and some users may be filtering your comments as a result? You can change this in your lemmy profile settings.
I’ve never had a Facebook account or any other social media. I know they keep shadow profiles, but I’ve never given permission. I never had any interest and frankly still don’t....
While I do consider this my social media outlet it’s different in a few ways. If I meet someone new in person and they’re interested in my online presence
I am not giving out this username
they wouldn’t understand or know what to do with it even if I did
As far as I understand it federation shouldn’t have anything to do with commenting on your own instance but rather after when it gets sent to other instances.
That many comments really does make a difference. Still, next time you see something cool online consider submitting it? It’s not as bad here as you might think.
Let me start by saying I’m a “floor guy” at a small town hardware store. I am in training to be a manager but not one yet. I do a bunch of stuff around the store. Which leaves me busy a lot of the time....
The transparency in funding and discussion of donations, the country or state it is hosted in (local laws), does its moderation policy align with your values?
If it’s a small instance fewer communities may be federated already so you may need to be the one to manually search for them for the first time (thus adding them to your instance’s “all” feed). Larger instances will already have many communities discovered and a fuller all feed. Though with lemmyverse.net and some determination you can build up the federated communities list up entirely yourself (and give everyone registered there an expanded “all”).

After a lifetime against, I'm considering joining social media. Any advice?

How does federation actually work?
…and why is it often PAINFULLY slow to acknowledge an up/down vote or to open the reply dialog?

Why do most people not post? (kbin.run)
It seems like a lot of people don't post or at least don't post on smaller communities like obsidianmd@lemmy.world

What should I look for when I’m choosing an instance?
I have accounts on three instances but I’m unsure which one should be my main account.
