Thanks, but I'm just a user here on lemmy.ml, so I don't have access to that. If it's not exposed in the UI at all I'll open an issue over in GitHub.

Also, as a mod, how can I see who are the subscribers to the community?

I think there's just been a lot of growing pains with beehaw and lemmy.ml seeing way more traffic from new users. Their servers are going down under the load and that results in weird errors in the clients and web, and I'm assuming federation issues too.

That's what Mastodon servers were doing after Twitter.

Per-community flair is nice in particular contexts. Like in a community focused on a specific league, a flair to show what team you support. But in a politics community I think flair for the party you support would end up really biasing the conversation.

Can I search for posts Mastodon instances from Lemmy? For example to crosspost to a Lemmy community?

Post needs more CowboyNeal to go with that whipped llama.

Hard agree with Blinken here.

I went from Slashdot to Fark to Digg to Reddit. Already found the Fediverse as @baronvonj@mastodon.online after recent changes over on Twitter.

As my user bio says I dabble in guitar and watch rugby (US MLR, go SaberCats) and hockey (NHL). For reading it’s mostly fantasy, with The Witcher and Discworld being my most recent books, but I also enjoy scifi. I tend to be more visual (ie TV and movies) due to ADHD though. Video games with a strong narrative are great. Games like the Horizon series (Zero Dawn, Forbidden West), Uncharted, Assassin’s Creed, Witcher, and Zelda Breath of the Wild.

I paid for Relay Pro after trying a bunch of other apps. Mobile web sites can generally work well enough but I almost always prefer an app, because they can better incorporate mobile UX patterns/elements to make better use of the small screen. For example each post is wrapped in a tile with the headline and thumbnail displayed and I can swipe an individual post to see the controls (up/down vote, open link in browser, go right to comments, etc). Even on the mobile site theres too much clutter.
