  Sounds like you’re saying we’re all just energy. So the ancient masters were right!

  Is this a “the game” situation where if you actually explain anything you lose? Because none of the comments explain what this is about…

  Why does she have MS13 tatooed onto her forehead?

  I can’t tell if I’m just too deep in the fedi-culture weeds, or if the article really is confidently ignorant

  Prolly both :D

  Ah that’s end of season 2 or beginning of season 3 of every series that has a couple in it, right?

  I mostly use it when I’m expressing an opinion that I know people will pretend I think is a fact.

  Luckily there’s still the trick of not using Edge. Who knows for how long.

  Cheers for the lengthy explanation!

  Lol. Truth Social using Mastodon seems so ironic.

  I’ve just “joined” the Fediverse a few days ago. I’m somewhat tech-savy I’d say. I still find a lot of it confusing.

  "Most people don’t conceptualize it like that; they conceptualize it like the postal service. " I think this was and still is in part true for me.

  There’s the term “Fediverse”, which suggests that there’s one continuous “universe” of things. But actually - and please correct me if I got this wrong - there’s just servers connected/interlinked with other servers, which (strictly must, due to how it works) form bubbles/webs or islands of all sizes.

  There are practically no postal service bubbles, because I can send mail to anyone I’d realistically wish. There are different postal service providers, but a “-verse” term would be better applied to postal service (-> “Postalverse”) than to federated servers, imo.

  So ideally as a noob coming from reddit or twitter, I’d like to know what the biggest bubble of connected servers is and where I can enter.

  A thing I haven’t figured out yet is why I can’t find a decent feed feature on Mastodon. On Lemmy there are local/all filters for communities a server is federated with, if I understood this correctly. My mastodon home instance (mastodon.social) doesn’t seem to have a feed, really. There’s a “trending” filter, but it has very few posts - afaik just the ones I specifically subscribed to - and it doesn’t differentiate between local and all federated servers.

  Am I doing it wrong? :P

  I’m expecting to have filters like in Lemmy, where I can just consume anything new, trending or controversial.
