  On the plus side, your mistyped question is still accurate: it is conceivable that you’ll be turning into a degenerate if your instance is maga.place.

  You’re on threads though. Why would it matter to you? FYI, threads is a horrible place to hang, not only because you could’ve edited your typo here on sh.itjust.works.

    But I am asking my instance. :(

      Your username says you’re on threads. Are you a user here too sometimes?

        I realize that I should avoid engaging in chicanery while attempting to spur change, but I couldn’t help myself. That’s my nickname you’re seeing. Click my profile to see my username

  If you can’t edit your post, that’s on your app, it works fine through the website and other apps.

    It requests that I change my language on the web interface, and doing so would effectively dismiss 99% of lemmy. I’m fine with looking a little foolish to include others

      I just tried it on an older post and I just ignored the language setting and it worked fine. Is that not the case for you?

        Unless someone else has the same language set, they won’t be able to see this. The percentages for users are supposed to be something like 2% English, 5% other, 93% undefined. I can’t exactly go for a discussion with 2% of Lemmy.

  Just wanted to point out that this is the first post from a threads account I’ve seen.

    Where have you seen a post by a threads user? I’m pretty sure your instance degenerated from them before they even implemented activitypub

      Ah, you got me. I didn’t realize @ was legal in display names.

      And I never bothered checking what the result of the threads defederation was.
