Takahē are going to try implementing it too, once Bluesky are ready to federate.

I think they just get marked as deleted, and what is supposed to happen is that the deleted comment gets picked up through federation and the destination server should delete their local copy. Sounds like that isn’t happening between Lemmy and Mastodon.

There’s some I haven’t used, but Kbin will do Mastodon-style microblogging and Lemmy-style threads, so that’s the best of both worlds. I don’t think the private messaging function works on it yet though.

I think the point was that we don’t need to use the sketchy service.

Companies can host Mastodon (or Lemmy or whatever) on their own domain. That way they have control over the instance and it implicitly verifies their account as official. Raspberry Pi already do this (raspberrypi.social).

My Instagram account won’t let me follow anybody for some reason (cites protection of users or somesuch). I never use it anyway. I’ve requested a data download and will delete it imminently, as it is completely useless to me.
May as well avoid them accidentally creating me a Threads account I don’t want.

Friendica, apparently. I’ve never used it.

feddit.uk is an active one, if you don’t have any luck at the café.
