Signs of the #RedditMigration in action: That is only seriously good for the entire Fedi infrastructure. Diversity is strength. 23 comments

@m_artigiani @tchambers @fediversereport @fediversenews@venera.social @fediverseobserver Yep. You can follow magazines/communities and I think accounts, and reply to posts, as normal. I'm not sure how one would make a new thread on a magazine/community from Mastodon, though.

@blake @m_artigiani @fediversereport @fediverseobserver You just tag the name of the group/magazine/community that you want to post on in the post from Mastodon. Really easy.

@Zach777 @m_artigiani @fediversereport @fediverseobserver That works? I thought that's how you'd do it but I didn't know it worked, partially because the formatting is a bit different (don't they expect a title _and_ a body?)

@Zach777 Oh, that makes sense. Posts from Lemmy/Kbin show up like that on Mastodon too.

@m_artigiani hello from the threadiverse :) on kbin we have content split up into two categories "threads" and "microblogs". This is under our RedditMigration magazine in the microblogs section. Y'all on mastodon should be able to follow us and engage as normal and even appear in our "threads" section at times (depending on the context of the posts). @fediversereport @fediversenews @fediverseobserver @tchambers

@tchambers @fediversereport @fediversenews @fediverseobserver I thought I had this all figured out when I finally got up and running with Mastodon, but now I'm just lost...

@tchambers @fediversereport @fediversenews @fediverseobserver Can we please stop fixating on new users and talk more about *active* users, with some definition of *active*? Or posts/content? As long as you put a form on the Internet, you'll get spam signups that don't do anything.

@astrojuanlu @tchambers @fediverseobserver @fediversereport We'll look at "users active in the last month" two months from now, but the only easy way to follow the reddit migration in the moment it's happening is really to look at the new accounts rate before and after the Reddit event. Spam account registration rate shouldn't have been much affected by the reddit news.

@tchambers @fediversereport @fediversenews @fediverseobserver Great to see all these new users and services, we may actually start to be taken seriously now.

Yes and no. The important thing to understand is that your content does not move. Only your followers do. However, followship is not that important on a Reddit like site. https://fedimeister.onyxbits.de/blog/mastodon-instance-move-account-how-to/

hmmm, that article seems to be about between mastodon instances and not with other ActivityPub implementations, in this case lemmy/kbin. And isn't subreddit (or whatever lemmy/kbin called it) a followship in ActivityPub lingua?
Patrick
Yes, that is the main focus, but the "Things that can move and things that canβt" move section broadly applies to all ActivityPub implementations.

@tchambers the issue we are facing is the creation of a small number of servers supporting a vast number of users. Counter productive with the concept of the #fediverse. We need to encourage new people to not swarm. |

@tchambers @fediversereport @fediversenews @fediverseobserver how exactly do these #threadiverse work? Can one follow them on mastodon and interact with them?
