Do you see yourself going back to Unity after they changed streams?
The only reason this didn't stick is because they got overwhelming backlash from it. They didn't revert it because they're thinking of their users, they didn't revert it because they had a change of heart; they did it because it was a PR issue and they decided they'd make more money by reverting the decision than by keeping it. That's the only reason.
The next time they think of some half-baked idea to milk more money from their users, they'll try that one, too, and they'll just keep doing it until something sticks, then probably start the process again and add something else on top of it. Anything they say denying this is just corporate speak.
Case in point, they're still adjusting their prices; they're lowering them for some very low-revenue teams while increasing them for their larger teams and this is, I guarantee you, because they ran the numbers and realized they'll make more this way.
Don't trust them. Get out if you haven't already. There's too many great, free options out there. Godot basically has feature parity with Unity right now except for console exports, and that's coming later this year.
As we worked out in the comments, it's not actually a federation issue, it's a synchronization time issue... there's a ~5 hour delay before we see posts from lemmy.world users (only l.w, as far as I can tell - doesn't apply to other instances.) Might be because of l.w's size, or some other factor, but it's interesting to note.
It'll certainly expand their reputation, but not in a good way.
Kinda sounds awesome, not gonna lie. Who doesn't like the smell of curry?
Unrelated, you're a dick - I spent a good minute or so wondering when we started federating with Threads.
For the sake of discussion, it seems that it does, but with a huge delay we don't see from other instances. This reply just became visible to us within the last 15 minutes.
I typically browse New, so if this is typical, that explains things - I don't usually read posts more than 2-3 hours after they get posted unless I'm following it for replies specifically. I've been noticing that I'll see a post with, say, 10 replies, but if I go look at the same post on another instance, it'll have 30-40+, with most of the disparity being from lemmy.world, so I (incorrectly) assumed it was a federation issue, when it seems it's not. Sure would be nice to figure this out, though.
I'm assuming this is related to the performance issues that've been being posted about on Telegram over the past hour. Digging deeper, I'm seeing their replies, too, but they're massively delayed. (The .world reply on this thread still isn't visible, for instance.) Will see if the situation improves when the server issue is sorted.
If other instances are seeing and replying to posts from our instance on communities owned by our instance, but we aren't seeing the replies, that's something more fucked up than just delays from days-old maintenance, unless I misunderstand how this all works, which is also possible.
Yiffit has registrations disabled, so furries kind of get funneled over here by default.
There's only one instance I have blocked, and it's not them.
I might be using the wrong terminology, but there's something going on. Do you see the lemmy.world user replying to this thread, from pawb?
This seems to be an unknown thing, because (by viewing this post on lemmy.world) I can see a reply from L.W. Go to the post on our instance, and you'll see what I mean.
If you check here, you can see who's blocking us currently.
Lemmy.world is one of a small handful of instances that explicitly don't federate with us, and we're one of 67 that lemmy.world blocks.
There's basically two furry instances (us and yiffit), and they aren't blocking yiffit, so it's not because furries, and we federate with them, so it wasn't a retaliatory measure, so I really don't know.
Edit: It's mildly annoying because due to the size of lemmy.world, it means we're not seeing a large percentage of replies in many popular communities. I guess the CTA here is, if there wasn't a reason for this, can we follow up with them and see what gives? Maybe it was a mistake at some point (or they thought we're something we're not, I don't know), and it could be fixed?
I worked in phone sales directly out of high school; this is not inaccurate. Exaggerated, but not at all inaccurate.
