  young padawan, the first lesson you ever learn on the internet is never admit your age until it no longer matters

  Why would you ever admit your age online?

    Eh, I don’t really see an issue with it at my age, but I guess for younger people it could be bad. I’m in my 40s now, but aside from producing some data to be mined, I don’t see how people knowing that hurts me.

      If 16 is too young for Lemmy, 92 is unfortunately too old.

      I’m sorry, but if you can’t use it during the first 17 years of your life, you shouldn’t be allowed to use it during the last 17 years either!!!11 Rules are rules…

  That doesn’t make sense. Iirc, lemmy.world doesn’t host any of your content or manages your account, it simply just displays it.

  • Nollij@sopuli.xyz ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    This can get a bit complicated with federation. This community is hosted on LW. I am accessing it via sopuli.xyz, and you via feddit.uk. All (presumably) have full bidirectional federation with each other.

    When I hit send, this message will go to Sopuli’s outbox, which will then sync to LW for this community. At that point, this post will live on LW’s servers. Anyone accessing LW directly can see it, even if Sopuli were to go down. Later (probably less than a minute), LW will sync to Feddit.uk, at which point you will be able to see it.

    Note that this is for text posts only. There have been some changes around images and video, both for bandwidth and liability reasons.

  This particular thread is hosted on lemmy.world and you must be 18+ to access it.

  Nah, admins only care about their own instance. So a LW admin would only care about underage LW users.

  Admins don’t have the time to moderate for other instances. I’m already busy enough with dbzer0, lemm.ee’s business is theirs. (as long as they’re not posting CSAM or scams)

      Most of the time admins and mods just ban you because they don’t like you even though that’s not a rule.

    • comfy@lemmy.ml ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      I believe the most an admin can do is block you from their own instance (e.g. lemmy.world banning you from lemmy.world communities), they don’t own your account on lemm.ee so they can’t ban you, and lemm.ee has no reason to ban you.

  I cannot stress this strongly enough: You have not been “using Lemmy” for 1.5 years now. “Lemmy” isn’t a service the same way Reddit is, it’s a web engine, like Joomla, or like phpBB.

  You’ve been using lemm.ee for 1.5 years.

  Nobody wants to hear this, but there’s no “Lemmy”. This emergent network of social media sites isn’t a coherent thing, and it’s not a stable concept. The attempts to make this look like a singular space are to the ultimate detriment of the network, because implicitly lying to end users about what they’re doing informs how they behave.

  You’ve been using lemm.ee. Lemm.ee has copies of content on other websites, but those websites have different rules, and different expectations than lemm.ee. You don’t get to pretend otherwise because of where you’re reading the content, and there is no guarantee that you will have further access to content from any other website than lemm.ee.

  This is a reality that people simply do not want to face, for some reason. Everyone wants to imagine that federation is just centralized social media with some voodoo in the background, but it is a fundamentally different paradigm, and this is the wild fucking west.

  You’re going to get your toes stepped on if you treat it like something it’s not.

  • Palladiumasteroid@piefed.social ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

    The social media lemm.ee runs the software Lemmy and forms part, along side other social media (server/instances/providers) of the Lemmy network that simultaneously forms part of the Fediverse.

    OP and you too are on Lemmy because you are part of servers that run Lemmy, and that actively make part of the Lemmy network in all its aspects, up to its distinct userbase culture that differentiate it not only from the wider fediverse but also from other link aggregators like Mbin and PieFed.

    Not only is your comment painfully pedantic but also patently wrong.

      No, lemm.ee and Lemmy.world are using the Lemmy software. You are using a web browser or a mobile app which is decidedly not Lemmy

    That’s some silliness right there.

    Using lemm.ee is using lemmy because lemm.ee is lemmy software being hosted on their hardware, and the activitypub that’s part of lemmy connects everything.

    If you’re going to try to be pedantic, be right

    When people say they are sending emails, do you also ask them which email provider they use to correct them?

    source

    • TORFdot0@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      If you email someone on a different mail service and your message breaks the ToS of their mail service then you shouldn’t be surprised if your email address gets blacklisted.

    • Kornblumenratte@feddit.org ⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago

      Different providers have different spamfilters, different rules regarding html mails, attachment file size, use of tls, policies regarding exspired certificates, and might have different log in procedures, so yes, if there are problems the question which providers are involved.

      source

  If an admin put limitations to who can or can't belong and/or interact with their server, it's their responsibility to whitelist and blacklist accordingly.

      You should understand the rules of the places you are posting to, yes.

      This is why “let’s pretend this is centralized social media and ignore the fact that we’re all on different websites” is a bad idea, actually. You don’t get to parachute into someone else’s house and expect the rules of your own home apply.
