The pings do work indeed, my friend. This is hilarious though. I didn’t know we had this either. Glad that there was some entertainment to be given out there as well. Thanks @AgnosticMammal@pawb.social for that honor <3 I’ve got a few stories so I’m glad that they’re not going to waste.
I did make this community mostly for experimentation. “Meta” discussion, where we talk about Lemmy itself, seems like one of the best ways to experiment (pings, replies, federation, etc. etc.). I do wish to encourage as much experimentation with a more casual environment.
So yeah, that’s the overall idea behind this “BestOf” community. I can’t say I was very active in the Reddit side of things, but the need for it on Lemmy (especially as users seem confused about pings / federation / etc. etc.) is much more needed, so that yall can feel like learning the platform better!
Feel free to ask me any questions about Lemmy. I’m part of the July-rush of Lemmy users (back when Reddit first started having shenanigans).
Oh hey, I didn’t realize we had a best of lemmy community!
Not sure if you can ping people on here, but @stamets@startrek.website
I was inspired by r/Slash’s reddit reads and thought I’d help out get a Best of Lemmy going!
