Keywords in what I said being “everyone on reddit knows what reddit is”. Had that there since a lot of comparisons of lemmy being similar to reddit happened on reddit itself but if people are talking on lemmy or elsewhere the comparison shouldnt come up unless the other user initiates that (especially if theres more people like you and we would then be sending traffic to reddit with the comparison)

The issue comes up when people youre talking to dont know what youre using as a comparison

Article mentions that if they mention something then its fair to say how youre similar / differences but the person youre talking to has to initiate that. For people on reddit everyone on reddit knows what reddit is as they are using it so comparisons to it can be made on posts there

I usually just ask users on mastodon in dms whether theyre fine with me posting it here and then make a completely new post if they say yes. For the actual video I download it from mastodon then usually shrink it to around half width and height and optimize it a bit so its within the lemmy file size limit

For actual crossposts from mastodon only the original author can do that and by tagging the lemmy community

The channel I used when starting out and that has some great tutorials is Heartbeast.

Edited the title to have a by in front to make that a bit more clear

Note its not my blog, just something I thought was interesting. Author is one of the people who has worked on factorio in the past

not technically released yet but I assume it will in some form before the next canvas. Should be relatively easy to support since it has lemmy api compatibility on release
