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.

I think that the main reason is that he was virtually alone in predicting Hilary Clinton's loss in 2016 and then created a very incisive film about it. He's been a supporter of Bernie Sanders in past campaigns and consistently argues for an orientation towards working-class politics as opposed to prevailing corporate liberalism of the Democrats. Now some would say that supporting the Democrats at all is a betrayal, but I'm staying out of that one for now.

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?

[-] pete_link@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 month ago

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.

[-] pete_link@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago

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.

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!
