I loved askhistorians. It answered questions I didn't know I had
You could copy and save it as a text file, and annotate links if necessary. That way you'll always have it.
They could also copy the question and the substantive answers and post them on the Fediverse AskHistorians community/magazine.
I want to shout out to https://ttrpg.network/ for setting up my new DnD forum. It's been good to be on a new place to discuss the game at it's new onednd location
Some things about the fediverse still escape me. But I’m trying to learn.
I’m on memmy (iOS client) and clicking that link takes me to the apps browser rather than just navigating to the community. I’m guessing because it’s another instance? So I tried searching for the community in memmy’s search bar and I’m finding a bunch of tiny TTRPG groups but not that one from that instance
Still trying to figure out navigation here
Ahhh yeah me too :( Incidentally I also swapped to Pathfinder 2e only a few months before leaving reddit and we’re having a lot of fun in our campaign!
You can but nothing is ever directly equivalent so it's easier to do earlier. Besides we're already this deep and it's not like we are paying anything since we're using static source books
We switched mid campaign, but we luckily had a good reason for the changes as we just ended up in the feywild so whenever anything weird comes up we can wave our hands at the fey 😂
@dumples If I were deleting my comments, I would try to archive them offline for myself.
@dumples OH, that's great! How did you do that? I would like to archive my comments too, if there is an easy way. Is there some tool for mass downloading (and probably deleting?).
I saw a video on Nebula a couple days ago about D&D that discusses everything you just mentioned about the litigation and subsequent fallout over the years with the game. This guy responded that the video is now out on YouTube. I think you'll see that a lot of what's been going on with the game is very repetitive.
Be aware that Reddit is repeatedly restoring deleted comments. I started editing posts to gibberish and then going back and deleting them about 6 weeks ago. Tonight some of those comments and posts had to be delete for the 4th time.
They are not restoring them, communities go public again making them appear in your profile. For some reason someone thought it was a good idea to hide them in your profile if the community is not accessible.
I deleted my comments for couple of weeks now, today there were only two left, looks like i'm about to finish.
I know that for sure because i export all my deleted comments and i can't find the reappeared ones in my backup, so i in fact haven't deleted them.
My experience is different. I've deleted the posts and comments from the same subs multiple times.
Same posts too? I don't know the backend and if the posts and comments get reindexed in the respective accounts, but i can imagine it happening like that
Same posts and comments. I've deleted both for multiple subs only to log in a couple of days later only to find them back again. It's happened multiple times. Other people have posted that same thing has happened to them, sometimes with much older posts and comments.
Hi from Lemmy! I hadn't been able to federate here before and my comments weren't showing up but now it's working.
I didn't know about all that WOTC was doing to DnD but I am familiar with them because I used to play Heroscape. That's absolutely fucked and you have my sympathy.
The good news is that we are on the verge of building something that we own on Lemmy, where corporations won't be able to fuck with us as much.

Yeah, about that...
Let's see what happens when Meta decides to federate Threads with the rest of us.
I really hope you're right because I love this place right now. It's much smaller than other platforms but there's enough content for hours of browsing and the community is leagues above the rest of the internet in terms of quality of discourse.
Outside of the fedi, I don't remember the last time I saw opposing views coexist in the same thread without one being brigaded.
Meta doesn't get to decide. We do. That's what I love so much about Lemmy.
The day this instance federates with Meta is the day I leave. They, and any other big corporations, can fuck all the way off. We have seen where that path leads time and time again.

The userbase is everything and we have the people we need. Everything else will eventually coalesce around that.
This person has to hurt others to make themselves feel better, you're best to just ignore.
Helpful tip: if, hypothetically, you come across a prolific poster who seems to only thrive on bitter negativity, you can go to their profile and click the "block" option next to the "follow" one near the top of the page and they'll never turn up in your browsing again. Good for peace of mind.
The user Mutant seem to be going around various communities to either vent their misplaced rage or cause shit. Or maybe both. Check out their comment history. Then feel free to block them.
Imagine thinking you're still on Reddit and acting like a dick is a normal thing to do.
Imagine coming to the comments with nothing worthwhile to contribute, yet doing it anyway
Fucking clown. Bye 👋
thanks for using Leebra!

I have precisely one thing I left on one reddit account because I can't bring myself to delete it. I asked a question on a history sub and got a fantastic answer on an obscure question.
