HW/FW security researcher & Demoscene elder.
I started having arguments online back on Fidonet and Usenet. I’m too tired to care now.
This is what my Mbin instance profile view shows me:

I’m under the impression the reputation points are either the combined number of upvotes or that minus downvotes, but I don’t know. Also, this is an Mbin instance but it’s fully federated with Lemmy instances so usually no one separates “Lemmy” and “Mbin” …
Yes, I know :) (I run a family instance with FediFetcher and relays as well)
Large instances are usually well covered enough. I don’t know if Lemmy/Mbin pull sll posts for a thread you visit but Mastodon has plans to do so in the future to alleviate this issue.
Even though apps interconnect it’s a good idea to use the best client for the service. But, sure - I can start following “@3dmvr@lemm.ee” from my Mastodon account. It’s also possible to subscribe to a Lemmy group from Mastodon, and reply to it.
But the best user experience is had by creating a Lemmy/Mbin account on such a server and interacting from there - like I am with my fedia.io account here now.
fedia.io here too, it’s the one I recommend to others as well. No specific “angle”, just works, based in Europe.

Yeah I’d rather the Matrix/Element people got that funding. They need it.
No that’s not it. With the two upvotes I have on the post above that number is now shown as 4118.
