Hey Jordan, sorry for the delay, but I just saw your comment. I just checked NSFW so we should be good now. Thanks for the heads-up. I didn’t realize the photo was in NSFW territory but I will keep that in mind in the future. Thanks again.

I just learned about this around 11:45pm ET November 4. I signed up as a swing-state voter, and in 5 minutes got connected with 2 safe-state voters who agreed to vote for Jill Stein as a swap for my (very reluctant) vote for Harris. I feel much better now. :-)

You should look at my post history a little harder. I have posted a lot on Palestine, and very few have centered on Harris. I consider the election choices very painful for anyone who wants to keep Trump out while not supporting an administration which is clearly collaborating in a genocide with Israel. Most likely I will hold my nose and vote for Harris, but I’m not sure yet. If I don’t, I would be voting for Jill Stein.
Sorry if you think that my posting reflects “bad faith”. I have responded to comments a few times, but generally I’m trying to get useful articles out to the Fediverse. (I also post a lot in Mastodon.)
I did write one long comment on voting for Harris, where I stated that it is a difficult decision for me, because each day I get angrier at the Biden/Harris blank check for Bibi. At the same time, I clearly don’t want Trump.
I don’t get the point of what you are saying here. Cohen doesn’t get “it”? Democracy? What’s wrong with what she did and what she said?
Thanks for the heads-up, I hadn’t seen that. Glad to see it was re-categorized as an enhancement. Hopefully, someone will work on it at some point.
Right, I’m hoping that the change might be easy. If it requires major work, then no, it would be very unlikely. Thanks for responding.
Hi, has there been any progress on this? Thanks.
An admin just wrote me about this, and said to create an “issue” about it. Where do I go to do that? Thanks.
Yeah, good point, my mistake.
Yeah, I see your point. This post is fine for most communities, but not quite suitable for this one.
You were correct about flair - doesn’t help with Masto-to-lemmy. Thanks. (last night I posted this in the wrong place. It’s where I want it now.) :-)

I replied to maegul with some observations elsewhere in this thread. But if you want to see my first good Masto-to-Lemmy post, you can look here: https://lemmy.ml/post/19510351
Thanks a lot for your help. You are right about placement of community - I have mine way down in the post, but it is before other non-Lemmy groups.
One silly error I made when I started testing was that I tried to send the message non-public, so I wouldn’t send garbage to Mastodon followers. That didn’t work for getting it to Lemmy - I had to have my test post be public before I started seeing them in test lemmy.ml.
Also, I found that putting “[News]” in front of the title in Mastodon post doesn’t carry over well to Lemmy, so I don’t do that now.
Here is my simple prototype:
Title of news article
text, text
URL of article
hashtags (too many)
@palestine AT lemmy.ml (but entered correctly there)
2 more @ mentions to gup.pe groups

Thanks again for your posts!
Yes, you are right. For more in-depth coverage and analysis, take a look at the article in this post: https://lemmy.ml/post/22677649
