Musk's gon' bill it to ya

Tired of tweeting for free? X's gonna monetize ya

Tap tap, open up the app, it ain't free...

With the non-stop, cash grab of premium fees

Riding rockets, now he's starbound and sold

But he got such a grand scheme

That'll make a tweeter wonder if he’s been memed

Damn right, and he'll charge you again, 'cause he's Elon, so hes gots to spin

Tweet battles with the freemium, but no matter how many cats he boxes with, he'll profit on your scene and win

Lots of variables, I just happened to see this post but I thought I could at least help you get started troubleshooting.

What device are you using? Do you get the same error if you're on a different device(Android/iOS vs desktop/laptop)

What browser or app are you using(Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Jerboa, Mlem?) If you can use a browser and open dev tools(F12) and take note of what happens(warnings/errors POST requests) when clicking on the upvote button may help the devs of the app(if you're using one) or instance maintainer figure out what's going on

Have you checked to see if the post you're trying to upvote is within your instance vs a federated post?

I'll reply if I can later, just thought I'd ask these questions to get you started. May want to check > out !/c/techsupport and/or !/c/lemmy_support to see if there are people having similar issues.

What...why? You only need one account. You have the ability to join, read, and post on any other federated "magazine". The only caveat is if a site decides to break their ties like beehaw.org did from Lemmy.world until the latter got their bot situation/login guardrails in place.

The easiest way IMO is to just subscribe to other communities(make sure you search 'all' communities instead of 'local'. )

If you're using a web browser(mobile or desktop) if you're looking for a specific community you can just append it to the end of your home url if the above solution isn't working for whatever reason but I wouldn't expect anyone would need to manually type out these urls.

Example:

https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/(community)@[instance] - this is not a working site just a reference

so the following links all end up on the same technology community on beehaw.org:

open me

https://beehaw.org/c/technology

https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/technology@beehaw.org

https://lemmy.world/c/technology@beehaw.org

https://kbin.social/m/technology@beehaw.org

The only confusing thing that I think may get people is if they create accounts on both Kevin and Lemmy and start getting confused by magazine vs collection(essentially subreddits or /r/ from reddit)

Also maybe, why does data such as upvotes, user's subscribed, upvotes/boosts look different on(for instance):

  1. https://lemmy.world/c/technology@beehaw.org

vs

  1. https://beehaw.org/c/technology ?

It's the same posts and the same comments, you aren't missing out on anything . However the upvotes, views, and subscribers are all coming from lemmy.world specifically to https://beehaw.org/c/technology

You aren't seeing beehaw's upvotes and number of subscriber, but just because you don't see them doesn't mean they don't exist. This is why I'd urge for people to find one instance to call home. If you make accounts on multiple instances it's just going to cause confusion for no good reason.

I think there have been enough threads created on this but I hope this helps you out.

 

Fuck /u/spez and all of that. It would be my 13th cake-day on July 7th 💩and I won't be on Reddit to celebrate because the account will have been shredded and deleted.

I'm glad we finally have an alternative (seemingly)decided on. I guess there isn't much else to talk about until 7/1 when a lot of blissfully ignorant reddit users realize they can't post anymore on their favorite app, when I think we'll see the biggest surge of new users. It feels as though the lack of conversation and "low" userbase - compared to reddit, is prompting users to ask if they made the right choice...

"Are there any Reddit refugees spending more time on >Lemmy than Reddit?"

"POLL - Will you stay on lemmy?"

"let’s cut the “Reddit” circle jerk and start actually making >content"

It's too early for those questions and of course people are going to be talking about Reddit, it's our old home. I was a user on Digg before Reddit, the big difference was that Digg V4 blindsided us, we knew a change was coming but had no idea it would be that bad. /u/spez was so nice as to tell us we were fucked a month or so in advance.

The point is, chill out, explore this community and others if you're inclined and don't stress, the rest will follow along in time:

Worth checking out:

It also has the ability to wipe your GDPR data for those in the EU.

As @JapanStar49 said, mass edit, don't mass delete. IMO this is just as good as a greasemonkey script at mass editing your history to remove your reddit paper trail.
