  • Okay I just figured out what happened here. Sorry for my misunderstanding in the other comment thread, I fell into the same trap initially.

    @Lemmy users - OP is a Mastodon user, so when OP responded to the comment with an @ and attached image, Lemmy federation didn’t pick up the attachment. I know we have images in attachments natively, so I don’t know if this is an upstream bug in Lemmy / Mastodon or some interaction between lemmy.world and Mastodon.scot.

    @twoowls73@mastodon.scot - you may not have realized that your Mastodon post generated a Lemmy thread. Welcome to another corner of the Fediverse if you’re new to Lemmy. Some of the animosity in the comments here probably came from the fact that we can’t see the image you attached to from our interface. Right now the comment is sitting at 36 net down votes, probably because our corner of the Fediverse didn’t have the full context















  • I get the statement you’re trying to make here - serving the name of a platform you dislike with the same reverence as he-who-must-not-be-named in Harry Potter (Voldemort) - but all you’ve done is obfuscate the search engine. Now if someone is skimming for information on the platform via search, you’ve hidden your comments and post from someone who might find your perspective useful. No one is going to try 15 ways of spelling a platform name (except maybe trying stackoverflow with and without spaces). Internet users are pretty lazy.
