Narrator: "They weren't."

Are you able to take it for road trips, or do you primarily use it locally?

Another alternative is Revolt. It's open source and very similar to Discord, but it's not federated, and thus not part of the fediverse.

We didn't legalize them, just decriminalized them. Problem is, we didn't follow the Portugal method and require them to get treatment… just not caught up in the system. So of course this was going to happen.

We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas!

Second Oregonian here, and also yup. We decriminalized but then decided not to require treatment (Portugal method), and then didn't fund treatment anyway.

You're going to need to cite your sources that repercussions do anything meaningful for addicts to get clean, as opposed to decriminalized but mandatory treatment (a la Portugal).

I honestly think that has to do with the fact that everyone on the fediverse has the ability to immediately block bad actors and never see them again. If there's enough brigading happening, that server can be defederated. Those same toxic people exist here, they're just shunted to their own inaccessible islands.

Hey, me too! I was there the same time as you and had pretty much the same plan. I never once thought about my data usage.

It feels this way with every shitty thing we find out about in the last however many years. And the answer always seems to be vote harder!!1!

I once heard it described that if Democrats found a magic lamp and got three wishes, they'd negotiate it down to one, and wish for something they think the Republicans would want.

That was the idea!

Out of curiosity, what else has he gotten right?

I named my cat Neko as a teen because of this program!

Firefish and Mastodon are both microblogging platforms (like Twitter) on the fediverse. Kbin and Lemmy are both forum style platforms (like Reddit).

Where Lemmy and Mastodon are for people who prefer a more basic just the necessities experience, kbin and Firefish provide a more stylish experience with more options and customization.

I get it. I still flinch when I see I have new messages waiting. But the fediverse is generally a pretty pleasant place and we work hard to keep it that way.

There's nothing wrong with having separate accounts either, I do. But if you're going to check out mastodon, I'd recommend also checking out firefish as well.

They're both the "twitters" of the fediverse, so like kbin and Lemmy here. Mastodon is more for people who want a simple interface with fewer options, whereas Firefish has a sleeker more customizable interface with a lot more options and features. And it has a wonderful onboarding process. They'll both get you the same content, so it's whichever one you like better.

Jokes on you, I like brussel sprouts more than ferrero rocher.

You've basically gotten your answer from the other comments, but you happened to pick the one fediverse platform that doesn't really federate well. Lemmy (I believe by design) only federates with kbin and that's about it. Kbin on the other hand federates with both Lemmy and mastodon/firefish (formerly Calckey).

And just a note, with the activitypub protocol, all platforms have the option to federate with every other activitypub platform, but not all choose to, and not everything at that. So while you can follow Mastodon/firefish from, say, Pixelfed, it'll only populate the photos, not the text only posts.

If you really want to follow Masto/firefish, you'd be better off with kbin as I don't believe Lemmy has that on their roadmap. Unfortunately, there isn't a migration option yet, so you'd have to refollow the same communities all over again from kbin.

Do the tips actually go to you and can you see if someone left you one?

That emoticon is apropos. But no, it was just a "huh. So that's a thing"
