I have an alt account on sh.itjust.works for whenever lemmy.world is down. I'd love to know what you dislike about them so I can determine whether or not I should have a different alt instance. I'm pretty OOTL when it comes to instance drama
Sh.itjust.works isn't supposed to be about technology, although I could see how you might get that impression based on the banner picture or name. I mean there's definitely a lot of tech people but that's also true of Lemmy as a whole.
It's just a general purpose server, probably with mostly North American users due to the location. And also an especially high concentration of French Canadians
I cant stop myself from reading your comments in imqtiepies voice..
God bless and welcome to the BDC
Out of curiosity, could you elaborate on what being a member of sh.itjust.works says about one's personality?
To be honest I think your personality sounds pretty based 😄
Have a good day!
this dont make sense for me, but I guess I need to understand your view. As I said, I dont think too much about the instance ... And imo dont reflect nothing about me since this is just internet and dont reflect my thoughts. I can be what I want here, nobody knows if im lying or not. I can be one of the brothers of Bradd Pitt and probably some people believe on this lie.
Now I'm understanding some people have some wars between some instances and block some instances. At this point I'm more and more confused tbh. But yeah, ty for your opinion
It's usually not that users block instances because only certain apps can do that. It's just that not every instance federates with every other instance. In the case of lemmy.world you can go to lemmy.world/instances and scroll to the bottom to see which instances they don't federate with. Not federating means that lemmy.world is not "listening" to these instances and as a lemmy.world user you're therefor not hearing from those people either. If some other instance defederates lemmy.world it means that you can still see posts and comments from the users of that instance but they can't see yours.
Why? Isn’t world refusing to defederate from threads?
