In hindsight, I wrote that line after seeing some code on Github that I thought was for ActivityPub, but when I went back to it later I realised it was for Mastodon.
It's a bit confusing because each action on the Fediverse uses the same universal language, but each service translates that language into their own specific rolls for their service.
Lemmy upvotes use "Like" which is common language in ActivityPub but down votes use "Dislike" which is ~~not~~* also used in the ActivityPub language. It's up to the other services how they interpret that. Mastodon favourites use "Like" but it has nothing for "Dislike". Mastodon boost uses "Announce" which is what Lemmy uses for posts and comments to a community.
There are also some actions that use the ActivityPub language on both services but one simply just doesn't send that action to the other service. Mastodon users can follow Lemmy users but Lemmy users cannot follow any users. I think Mbin does allow following users.
From the Lemmy ActivityPub documentation
An upvote for a post or comment send an ActivityPub Like action
Users can send posts or comments to a community which the community forwards to its followers in the form of Announce.

ActivityPub Like is transformed into a Favourite.
ActivityPub Announce is transformed into a boost on a status
Flair Airlines has a tendancy to just stop flying out of certain airports for various reasons. As much as I'd like this to be a "buy Canadian" trend it could just be as simple as they think the airport fees are too high.
I would love a more generic name
Considering the general userbase is very open-source focused, we should promote FOSS alternatives. Instead, we could call it GimpBattles. Then people would know we mean business. /s
On a serious note, I understand that familiarity is important and helps with users that are migrating over here but I have always felt it's the perfect opportunity to do away with some of the dumb subreddit names (all the ___Porn names, like EarthPorn)
Lemmy is not reddit, that's the point of Lemmy.
Spinning a bottle?
Chris' crotch is applesauce
If there's anyone who has any valuable input about multiple accounts, it's this guy.
See, I don't even know. The term is used so broadly. It's basically just "Lemmy users I don't like"
You're about to get 10 different answers, most would say
-
Any user from the Lemmygrad and Hexbear instances, and some from Lemmy.ml
-
Genocide deniers
-
Pro-Russia and pro-China users
I think it's just a derogatory term for anyone that's anti-imperialism/liberalism
Just a couple more things to add:
Sometimes the tile will update on the server but your browser will still show the old one. You can press Ctrl+Shift+R to do a more thorough reload of the webpage.
The tiles are usually pretty quick to update at high zoom levels (like when you're zoomed all the way in) but they are slower to update the more zoomed out you are.
At 7:30 in the video, it's shown that 6% are in favour of annexing Canada using political and economic pressure, and only 2% in favour of using military force.
