  • Can you judge a work of art by it’s virality? Should you judge by virality?

    A lot of times in history artists got recognition they deserved only after their death. When they ware alive they lived in poverty struggling to make ends meet.

    There is a lot of internet 1.0 preserved by internet archive that I didn’t get to experience. There are flash games that I would love to preserve and show the next generation.

    We wouldn’t have known how Scotts Cawthon games have looked like before he made FNAF if not for the preservation efforts.


















  • I have only observed Lemmy->Mastodon and Mastodon->Lemmy

    If I follow a community, in mastodon it will show as boosts and will show Title + link to the original post with all the comments also as boosts. It has some probability of working. Not always. I couldn’t get hashtags to work.

    If someone mentions some lemmy community it will get federated into that community but only into first mentioned community. The first line of a microblog will be set as a title. When users write hashtags and mentions first, it will be unreadable. Not all replies will get federated back and forth.

    P.S. I have seen kbin [R.I.P] (Long Live Mbin) posts on lemmy and it worked good
