tldr: chapo.chat isn't ready yet.

Don't worry, you'll get to be called libs by the users from lemmygrad.ml Soon™.

[chapo.chat is] running a heavily modified version of lemmy forked months ago, for not just the front end, but the back end as well. Once they’re up to date with the most recent lemmy versions that have federation working, then we can try federation, on the back end at least. Their back end devs are great, but their front end devs contribute nothing upstream, and will have to re-create all the federation-related parts of the lemmy-ui code for their own fork.

    “What the hell is he saying! That’s revisionism! Pure revisionism! Worse than revisionism! Has he gone off his head? I hope Beatnik hasn’t gotten wind of this yet, or there’ll be hell to pay. Tell the Lemmy devs I want to see them in my office TODAY at 4:00 pm SHARP. And they better have a good explanation for this garbage!”

        Molotov was based and cool.

        "Before his retirement, Molotov proposed establishing a socialist confederation with the People's Republic of China (PRC); Molotov believed socialist states were part of a bigger, supranational entity"
