Mass migration to Piefed for various history and meme subs!

  The best way to provide ! links that work for the most people is just to type them out as plain text, not as a hyperlink to anything.

  So, these communities can be found at:

  !roughromanmemes@piefed.social

  !politicalcompassmemes@piefed.social

  !inhabitedbeauty@piefed.social

  !tankiejerk@piefed.social

  !historyphotos@piefed.social

  !historyart@piefed.social

  !historyartifacts@piefed.social

  !historyruins@piefed.social

  !shermanposting@piefed.social

  !noncredibledefense@piefed.social

  Also, from what I can tell, they haven't been moved using PieFed's community migration facility (which squishes the old remote community into a new local one and retains the history (e.g. like what happened with like !casualconversation@piefed.social ). These are just brand new communities, starting from scratch.

    Sorry, I'm used to Lemmy's markup, which automatically makes them a hyperlink. I imitated that without considering that it might be different on Piefed. I've got practices to unlearn, it would seem.

    Thanks for going through the effort to make the links instance-agnostic.

  Moving to PieFed OK, but why everything to the one instance? Didn't we learn anything from having everything @world?

    It would be one thing if this were several people moving their comms to Piefed.social, but it's literally just me. Piefed.social is still small, I don't think me moving is going to cause it to centralize, especially considering that there are other major Piefed instances already extant.

    Decentralization should be done by different people and groups choosing different instances, but all of us federating with each other and participating in each other's comms; not in expecting one person to spread themselves over half-a-dozen different instances.

    Also why do the links all go to the original instance instead of opening on mine so I could easily subscribe?

      Unsure what had happened in another post and poked in my instance's main(?)/meta(?) community (!askthebrainbin), but after a short back and forth, and seeing the behavior repeat here as well, I think the owner's assumption is correct, the first of each pair of community links here is actually a hyperlink manually created, while the seconds are proper sharable communities.

      Sorry, on they work on Lemmy. I'm not sure how to do markup for non-Lemmy instances yet, I'm learning.
