This is generally the way Mastodon displays posts, that they do not appear in an orderly manner.

In my opinion, this is not a contingent consequence, but the problem is a bit deeper: Mastodon staff knows well that helping Mastodon users to use groups better (for example by helping them to visualize them better) means helping competing projects like Friendica, Lemmy, Mbin, Piefed, gup.pe and even Peertube (which also works as a synolos between user (author) and group (channel). Helping the rest of the Fediverse means giving up the dominant leadership position that guarantees them subsidies, donations, visibility and, above all, the possibility to do whatever the fuck they want, imposing de facto standards.

PS: this is why I am a supporter of Friendica, Lemmy/Piefed, Wordpress, Mbin, Peertube and Bonfire: because virtuous competition brings diversity and diversity brings resilience

I remind you that mastodon users can overcome the serious problem of not being able to view Lemmy communities in an orderly manner. The Raccoon for Friendica app, compatible with Mastodon, provides simplified viewing (viewing only topics) for all accounts of the Lemmy community, Friendica group or Gup.pe group type

This is a test to see if mentioning other Fediverse accounts or other Lemmy accounts now works.

Good morning and happy Sunday to everyone. I would like to ask you for advice on how to force publication on a Lemmy community when from any federated social network (Mastodon or Friendica) I mention both a Lemmy community and multiple Activitypub groups (gup.pe groups or Friendica groups).

In fact, at the moment it seems to me that mentioning the Lemmy community before the others is not enough to force publication on Lemmy.

As with most apps in the Fediverse, the system first makes you connect to your server's web page to authenticate and authorize the app. Did you manage to get to that stage?

I couldn't figure out the problem, until I realized there was a space at the end of the link

RaccoonForFriendica is the most complete app ever seen for Friendica and, in addition to working with Mastodon, it might be the only app in the world capable of managing the potential of Mastodon Glitch-soc

European Media Freedom Act: the end of source confidentiality?

@politics

The new European regulation aims to protect the secrecy of journalistic sources, the key concept at the heart of journalism, but actually risks legitimising its systematic violation

By Dimitri Bettoni on #BalcaniCaucaso

#EMFA

The modification proposal presented last June by the European Council, a body that represents the interests of the member states, worsens the protections of article 4 and reinforces the legitimacy of state surveillance for reasons of national security which, reads the text, must remain a guaranteed prerogative of the member states and never be challenged by the EMFA. Furthermore, the Council proposes that the legitimate use of surveillance and in particular of spyware be extended to dozens of other crimes, including minor crimes such as copyright infringements.

Among the countries promoting this pejorative draft we find Germany and France - countries producing Spyware technology - but also Greece, a country where surveillance abuses against journalists have become a topic of national relevance.

When you write from Friendica (or another social network) to post on Lemmy, you must respect some basic rules.

Here I tried to write a handbook (in Italian) to help users write posts that have a readable title and work well

https://www.informapirata.it/2023/02/28/si-profila-allorizzonte-un-punto-di-contatto-tra-forum-e-social-network/#formattazione-lemmy

Furthermore, as regards the titles, you must take into account that Lemmy only interprets up to 200 characters; when exceeding 200 characters, the title is truncated. To count the characters, however, you have to consider the BBCode characters of the source text, which are converted into Markdown in Lemmy. So you have to be careful that "marked" text strings don't end up at the 200th character! Here are some additional notes:

Secondo Free League Publishing, la campagna Kickstarter offrirà l’accesso anticipato in formato PDF al Core Rulebook del gioco di ruolo dell’universo di The Walking Dead, molto prima dell’uscita al dettaglio che è invece prevista per l’autunno del 2023. La campagna sarà sostenuta dalle forze chiave del franchise, tra cui il Chief Content Officer di The Walking Dead Universe, Scott M. Gimple, e il capo della AMC Networks Publishing, Mike Zagari.
