Überall sonst: Profil-Liste
The problem is that Mastodon, unlike Lemmy or Friendica, requires a mention of you to get a notification of a response, even if it’s your post. Plus, if you don’t have a follower from the instance of the user that replied (which is always the case if it’s a Lemmy-user), the reply won’t even appear.
I don’t see a solution for this.
Is there a dependency on the instance, will it be blocked otherwise? I have activated the bridge to Telegram and Discord for my channels in the channel itself.
The pupose of a Like button is to express that you like the post.
And even if this was the reasoning – which is baffling enough as it is
What is baffling about it? The function fulfills exactly the purpose that its name promises.
it wouldn’t make sense since the whole point of boosting something is to tell the public that you like a post.
With a boost, you pass the post to your followers. This is a different feature accordingly.
Like before Boost often seems useful, but hardly in case of bad news.
Ok, it’s finally confusing: Now that I installed Vivaldi on my (W11-)Detachable with settings synced, I get all notifications via Windows notifications the way it should be. 🤷♀️
Tried this, restarted Vivaldi, still the same.
This is what I get on Vivaldi instead. A little pop-up appearing for a few seconds - and if I have been afk in the second of appearing, it’s lost.
That’s the same default case in Firefox/LibreWolf that I’ve changed by switching alerts.useSystemBackend. So that’s the setting I’m looking for now.
What I’m looking for is called alerts.useSystemBackend in Firefox/LibreWolf, described here. Notifications of all apps at one place. Like when you swipe down from the top of the screen on Android or swipe from the right on Windows.
It’s not that the described setting doesn’t work - I simply don’t see any presence of a switch at all that changes from in-app notifications to desktop notifications.
The described setting turns notifications on or off, it’s not a switch that has anything to do with the topic if I don’t get this wrong!?
Seems to me that this does not affect my problem.
I do get the push notifications. I want the notifications not to pop-up inside Vivaldi, but to arrive in the Windows notification bar, like all other apps except a total shit place called Discord.
Somehow, the issue gets much stronger feedback in Deutschland. 🥔
Only fascists talk like that at their conferences. And then it doesn’t sound much better in other languages.
There are a hell of a lot of good examples of how terrible our language is, but that’s nonsense.
Thanks, that makes sense. Just to double-check: replies are synced across servers, correct?
No. You will only see comments by users who have at least 1 follower on your local instance, at least in the official UI/app.
client for decentralized social network Mastodon which focuses on simple and functional design
For those who are looking for something similar available on both Android and iOS: Recommendation for tooot. Special feature, especially for users of small instances: It loads the comments from the original instance when you open toots, so you don’t just see comments from users who are known on your instance. I haven’t seen this on another app yet on Android.
I miss loves.pizza so badly 😥
So if you’re still on Reddit - let’s go & upvote comments that promote joining the Fediverse at r/antiwork! ✊
We don’t need no “moderation”, we don’t need no thought control.
If you don’t want it, that’s absolutely fine - you just have to respect that others don’t share that opinion and cut the line since it’s hard to find a shared Fediverse of opposite ideas. Unmoderated instances have always been seperated in Fediverse-microblogging and I really don’t see why history shouldn’t repeat in this case.
Why? Isn’t Odyssee a company? What if they go bust?
Then you are lucky and at least the content is no longer listed. The stuff remains on the LBRY network anyway, if I have understood how it works correctly.
It allows anyone to create an account and register content that cannot be deleted by the company.
As part of a small party instance, I would like to point out that there are restrictions, e.g. only comments from users who are also followed by someone on their own instance are visible - unless the admin has linked the instance to an external bridge. Furthermore, I recommend to have contact details of an admin outside Mastodon at hand - because if the instance is not reachable, it will quickly become unpleasant.
If you know what you’re getting into and want to accept that so: You can find all instances on https://mastodon.fediverse.observer/list. In addition to Mastodon, I also recommend taking a look at Soapbox (e.g. postblue.social) or Firefish (e.g. firefish.social), which are more modern and offer many more features like formatted posts and quoted posts, but have no character limit like Mastodon.
