  • Look at the instance OP is from, it's not one of the big twitter knockoffs.

    Their target audience is Mastodon users though, not Lemmy. And Mastodon requires hashtags for discovery. OP is just writing their post in a way that it can be found by Mastodon users.

  • @woelkchen@lemmy.world @mho@social.heise.de

    So this is a test post you ask users to repost?

    I think you misunderstood the request to "share" there. They're most likely talking about boosts, Mastodon's version of Twitter's retweets. Lemmy, I think, doesn't implement boosts. So it makes sense you would interpret it differently from the rest of the fediverse.

    Basically, this isn't a call to repost. It's essentially just asking to upvote and boost and OP can then see from where those interactions came.

    why should I not remove this from !fediverse?

    It's on topic and your community has no rule against test/experimental posts.

    Your community might want some additional rules if these kinds of posts are undesired. Like a low effort rule maybe. Or a rule against posts asking for upvotes and similar actions. A quick look at lemmy.world's site-wide rules didn't look like such a rule is there.

  • Did they ever actually specify what they meant with that promise?

    I mean, datapacks ARE a modding API. Not the kind we would have liked to see, but if a modding api is all they promised, then they did deliver on that.
    It's called data-driven modding, and not exactly a rare approach among official modding APIs.
