Hi I've just arrived on Lemmy but I'm already talking shit and people hate me like when I say Twitter is better than Mastodon (sorry I'm an idiot). But now I want to delete my post because I don't assume but it won't go away!!!! Can someone explain to me how the delete system works? Thanks a lot.
As a federated service deletions can take time to federate out to other instances. It's also good practice to first edit the post/comment away before deletion.
Edit: Due to popular demand FatTony Search servers are down for the time being. but has gone open source just in time (Yes that's how it works 😡) . You may now get responses from other users. Servers will be back up some time later.
The families of 19 of the victims in the Uvalde elementary school shooting in Texas on Wednesday filed a $500 million federal lawsuit against nearly 100 state police officers who were part of the botched law enforcement response to one of the deadliest school shootings in U.S. history....
One tip is that most of us "use" Lemmy a bit differently than Reddit. Most niche communities (with some exceptions ofc:-) here aren't as active as they were on Reddit, so many of us end up spending more time in the generalized ones - e.g. !technology rather than specific ones like r/OnePlus or even r/Android.
I know it's now a cliché comparison but that was what early reddit was like. If you were a more recent redditors you need to realize it started smaller too, originally there weren't even subreddits, and there was a /r/reddit.com once they were introduced.
That level of granularity largely won't be necessary here for a while but I don't mind at all.
Seconding this @Damage Lemmy has really shown me this first-hand multiple times. For example !connectasong started out with a few regular posters but then there was couple mo th period where we all seemingly forgot. Once I remembered I went back and decided to just connect songs with my self each day until it came back. Turned out it worked in under a week.
But it can also take time. I made my own community was the only poster there for months, posting maybe average once per week. Subscribers trickled in slowly and then I found its subscirbers growing exponentially and now others contribute.
Remember, people are abandoning reddit slowly all the time, it's not all grand exoduses, I see it as building a relatively active community for future users to find. !fedigrow was recently created for more discussion in this area.

Ireland, Spain and Norway have announced they will formally recognise a Palestinian state on 28 May, triggering an immediate response from Israel, which said it would retaliate by recalling its ambassadors from Dublin, Madrid and Oslo, and withholding vital funds from the Palestinian Authority....
Or are you saying that there is no possible way for Israel to exist either than as an ultra racist etnostate that systemically discriminates against a part of its population based on their etnicity?
Not who you're asking but as a citizen of a country that's working through that transition I hope it could be possible, but fear it will take decades.

UI differences are a big factor in the success/failure of decentralised federation of diverse platforms and content
And this seems a good example: bridged #mastodon posts onto #BlueSky which has a lower character limit than Mastodon.
So, just like #lemmy posts on mastodon, you don't get the full content of the post (which ends with an abrupt ellipsis here) and have to take a link to the original platform.
However powerful the underlying protocols, this isn't far from screenshots.
