i don’t want to bring the big forum website that lead to the creation of lemmy (red**t), but that site lets you create posts for your own profile, like, it treats your own user wall as if it was a “subreddit” of its own and, if you don’t have any followers or don’t have the followers button enabled not a lot of people will see your post, but at least you can just sort of use it for posting interesting or casual stuff. lemmy should totally implement that please!!! can you do that on lemmy?? i tried but there’s not a way you can do it, i’ve been trying so if you know a way of creating posts on your profile, please let me know thank you
edit: there were a few grammar mistakes,i’m sorry!!!
It’s not part of the model yet. There is absolutely nothing stopping it from being implemented, and it could be very useful to do so.
This whole “Lemmy is only for doing this one thing, Mastodon is only for this other thing, Matrix is for this other thing” mentality is frankly short-sighted. There is a common standard that can allow application developers to implement multiple use-cases, we do not need separate accounts/services/clients for each of that.
If that were the case, we would never have webmail and everything would have to have its own specific client that could talk with only one specific server.
