    I can’t post on a Mastodon instance with another instance account, only comment on people’s posts. This is the same way Flohmarkt does federation.

    Can you create a hashtag for australia with your account on a US server? Can you create a hashtag for France while living in Poland? Can you create a post with a hashtag for Romania while living in Scotland?

    I also can’t create an community on Lemmy with an account from another instance.

    I can easily create a post for any location without requiring an account for that instance.

      Hashtags are only search filters, nothing gets posted anywere.

      And Lemmy is designed like that because it doesn’t aim to be location specific, unlike classified ads pages where that is the design goal.

        Please explain to me how I, as a user in the United States, can use flohmarkt, with the current servers available and online today.

          You set up a server with the software that is available to you today 🤷 Don’t hide behind self-inflicted learned helplessness to be a lazy capitalist consumer…

            Ok, now you’re just being an asshole rather than understanding why its a design problem.

            We are absolutely done with this conversation now. Goodbye.
