An avatar roaming the decentralised and federated 3-D virtual worlds based on OpenSimulator, a free and open-source server-side re-implementation of Second Life. Mostly talking about OpenSim, sometimes about other virtual worlds, occasionally about the Fediverse beyond Mastodon. No, the Fediverse is not only Mastodon.
If you're looking for real-life people posting about real-life topics, go look somewhere else. This channel is never about real life.
Even if you see me on Mastodon, I'm not on Mastodon myself. I'm on Hubzilla which is neither a Mastodon instance nor a Mastodon fork. In fact, it's older and much more powerful than Mastodon. And it has always been connected to Mastodon.
I regularly write posts with way more than 500 characters. If that disturbs you, block me now, but don't complain. I'm not on Mastodon, I don't have a character limit here.
I rather give too many content warnings than too few. But I have absolutely no means of blanking o
This is so far the only time that the image is shown on Hubzilla.
I can't see it here on Hubzilla either.
@silverpill I've yet to see Hubzilla backfill an entire existing thread at once. It does backfill posts from new connections on certain server apps, though. And it sometimes appears to backfill threads bit by bit over prolonged periods.
As for (streams), I can't see inhowfar it backfills because I barely actually follow anyone from there.
@Scott M. Stolz Like a diaspora dev once said: Threads didn't "implement ActivityPub", they "implemented Mastodon".
Hubzilla here. I don't see the picture in the original post, only the one in the comment.
Try PeerTube. It's basically YouTube in the Fediverse.
Arrived on Hubzilla.
But try again with a subject and/or with an image.
And curiously, for a change, I can see the image here on Hubzilla.
Can't see the image, but that can be for lots of reasons.
Test 0.19.4 comment nesting
Anyone on Friendica following this? Can they verify?
Not here on Hubzilla.
@dko1905 The Swiss Army Knife of the Fediverse. Older and vastly more powerful than Mastodon.
Okay, this time I can see the image on Hubzilla. Just for the record.
Okay, good to know. Then I can remove the automatically added mention.
Start post and first comment liked and disliked from Hubzilla.
And what if I reply to your comment without mentioning you?
@Manucode That's because I've posted them as such.
How about now?
Nope, but that can have a whole lot of reasons.
"Outside" as in everything that isn't Lemmy.
Unless there's something in italics in this comment.
So Lemmy only parses Markdown internally, but never when it comes in from outside.
/kbin does as Misskey and the Forkeys do and parses just about all Markdown that's being thrown at it, no matter from where.
Both have their advantages and disadvantages.

Demonstration: Various ways of handling extremely long image descriptions
Again, this post goes out to both the #Threadiverse and the rest of the #Fediverse.
I've decided that only writing about my problems with #AltText and enormous #ImageDescriptions won't work as well as actually demonstrating what I mean, and why it's a problem.
Preamble: Some of you may see me on #Lemmy. But I'm not on Lemmy.
Others may see me in their local or federated timelines on #Mastodon. But I'm not on Mastodon either.
I'm on #Hubzilla (official website) which is part of the Fediverse and federated with Mastodon, Lemmy and just about ev

Alt-text: How detailed does it have to be?
This is going out to both the #Threadiverse and, because I can't keep this from happening, the rest of the #Fediverse where I've mentioned this issue before three months earlier.
In brief: I'm still not sure how much #AltText is optimal. And I tend to run into situations in which alt-text that describes everything in a picture will grow longer than any of you could possibly imagine in their wildest dreams.
Here's my situation:
- I don't have a problem with writing a lot. Unlike most of you, I'm not on a phone. I'm on a desktop computer, and if I'm not, I'm on a laptop. I've always got a full-blown hardware keyboard, and I can touch-type with ten fingers. And I like to rant.
- I'm on #[Hubzilla](htt

Images on Lemmy visible for users from outside?
I have a question to all of you who have subscribed to Lemmy groups from Fediverse projects that aren't Lemmy. Who follow Lemmy groups from e.g. #Mastodon, #GlitchSoc, #Pleroma, #Akkoma, #MissKey, what's still called #CalcKey, #FoundKey, #Mitra, #GoToSocial, #Socialhome, #Friendica etc., but also #kbin. And I sincerely hope that I'm not the on

Hubzilla-Testpost Nr. 4: mit Titelfeld und normalem Mention
@Test
Okay, von Hubzilla nach Lemmy geht kein Wall-to-wall ohne Mention, und Deliverable Mentions mit ! gehen auch nicht, nur normale.
Jetzt will ich mal sehen, was passiert, wenn ich zumindest das Titelfeld nutze und den Titel nicht an den Anfang des Posts stelle.
Mal langsam herantasten bei den Features.
