Good news for Beehaw users, the newer Lemmy versions improve the quality of life quite a lot.

Being able to hide posts is quite nice.

Nice

Yes, it’s a great feature

Sounds good, welcome by the way!

You’re welcome. It’s a bit finicky to be honest 😄

Similarly, any way to quickly switch to viewing a linked post on my instance if it’s linked through another?

Paste the post URL in your instance search bar.

It is part of the Lemmy 1.0 release

Interesting

I was always surprised by how small the Italian community seems to be on Lemmy. Of course Germans are the most active, but French are doing okay.

Have you guys tried talking about your instance on some smaller subreddits? The geodefault is probably strongly against it

Not sure if it’s “fun”, but there was this meme: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/21725602

Thank you for your comments on Reddit btw

But then they’ll say it’s confusing to have several links to the same website x)

Like when OP complains about the user experience with the example of accessing a not-yet-federated community, clearly a mechanical problem that can’t easily be fixed by a redesign, and the replies advertise alternate Lemmy frontends or apps. Those don’t help with OP’s issue at all.

The first point of that comment is about the interface, hence the suggestions to alternative frontends.

The community was federated, but the user wasn’t using their local version, they thought they had to use the community host instance.

Let’s keep guiding them to better UX

I’ve been trying the Photon/Voyager approach, the issue is that some people despise Photon and modernist interfaces with a passion, there’s a comment on that thread I had to link to old.lemmy.zip

Would you trust a 1 week account to moderate any community?

I would. Modlogs are public
