Honestly, can someone tell me what the point of a 2 day blackout is? Like if you’re really all about getting the point across, why would you not just go balls to the wall and go dark indefinitely until change? All a 2-day blackout is (in my opinion) is just virtue signaling to say we oppose what you’re doing but ultimately I’m too addicted to ever quit
@SteveToshSnotBarry@EFG
Inertia means most people don't *want* to move elsewhere. A longer blackout would just result in people scattering all over the place.
A short blackout keeps the community together, while also showing reddit what could happen if they don't change their mind.
So, less "virtue signalling"🙄and more of a two-fingered salute.
@I_am_the_grass@thatdosbox Interesting thing is I can only see replies to the thread I started from my reply. I can't see the other comments in the thread unless I go to that post on lemmy.world.
@I_am_the_grass thanks for checking. FYI, in your blue "you are not logged in" box, it says enter "!gunners@lemmy.world" into the mastodon search box. That does not seem to work.

I'm down for this. If you mods are migrating maybe sticky a post with the link over on reddit?

Don't suppose there's a way to make a bot that auto posts the content from r/gunners?
Astrealix@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 3y
Problem is it would need to use the Reddit api lol
kleautviool@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 3y
Don't know how things work on lemmy, but you should be able to scrape all the content from /r/gunners with a webscraper that runs on a cronjob

Channel your inner Palpatine and say, “I am the content”

@EFG testing replying from mastodon
Astrealix@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y
why lol
raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social · 3 pts · 3y
@Astrealix trying to see what the options are. I can subscribe to the "sub-Lemmit" but I can't necessarily see all the comments
Astrealix@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 3y
fyi it's called a community lol
raumdeuter@arsenalfc.social · 2 pts · 3y
@Astrealix thanks. I was blanking, I remembered it's called a magazine on kbin
BabaDuda@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 3y
Lmao mastodon? This is some crossover
Though I suppose it should be possible since it's a fediverse after all
thatdosbox@mstdn.ca · 1 pts · 3y
@raumdeuter @EFG another mastodon test, only with hashtags #arsenal #mastodonfc
Do people on lemmy see posts from mastodon when they click on hashtags, or only those from lemmy?
(edit) looks like it only links to the hashtag on my mastodon server
I_am_the_grass@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 3y
Yea we do. It opens a Web url

Removing the exclamation mark does, as does entering: https://lemmy.world/c/gunners
