Comment on New Comm at !Lotrmemes@Piefed.social after the Dbzer0 admins banned me!

The reason for leaving the other comm is what differentiates the two - you’re absolutely right that I failed to describe it though, I keep forgetting that acronyms are not always instantly recognizable lol. Fixed.

Thanks.

Note that if you’re “forking” a community, PieFed has a feature — which I have not personally used — that permits for replication of the existing community’s history. The admins of one community I was subscribed to on lemm.ee used it to create a new community on piefed.social before lemm.ee went down. I manually reposted history of another (smaller) community that was moving to lemmy.world,’ and thus didn’t have the replication feature available, and that was a big timesink. Much better to do it via automation, if you intend to do so, IMHO.

    Note that this feature may still have some limitations: sh.itjust.works/comment/19025297
    
    It does show up as a comment in piefed.social/c/internetisbeautiful, but not on sh.itjust.works/…/internetisbeautiful@piefed.soci….
    
    I posted a test reply from my PieFed account, but never received a reply notification on my sh.itjust.works account.
    
    It feels similar (though not identical) to projects mirroring posts and comments from Reddit. Sure, the content is there, but the people aren’t.
    
    That said, it might be better than nothing, but you should look into its current limitations.
