Floating Is Fun
Banners by ke-ta and by neko
We're chasing that dream-like feeling of floating free in the air and playing around, be it real or fantasy. Any post type that conveys this feeling is welcome. Check the post flairs for examples.
What qualifies for Floating Is Fun is open to interpretation. I encourage everyone to post what they like to see. Give us a gentle push and we'll float pretty far.
We started on Reddit /r/FloatingIsFun in 2021 and moved here in 2023. All 400+ posts from the original from the original subreddit have been reposted here, so you're not missing anything.

Hi thanks for letting me know. Unfortunatley lemmy doesn't support tagging ๐ .
The closest alternative I can do is embed the tag in the title:
Edit (not possible bellow only above work): [#illusion] Controlling the Rain by Jesse Eisenberg
[[#illusion]](https://fedia.io/tag/balloons) Controlling the Rain by Jesse Eisenberg[[illusion]](https://fedia.io/tag/balloons) Controlling the Rain by Jesse Eisenbergtop two options don't hyperlink the fedia tag bottom two do (code shows the markdown syntax for linking). Curious on a good way to go about this
Edit scratch that I can't embed links into titles (forgot)
I'm still trying to figure out a good implementation for our Reddit post flairs across Lemmy and Kbin. Kbin lets me give my posts multiple tags, but there are problems.
For one, Lemmy doesn't see Kbin's tags or badges at all. I don't even think they get Kbin's OC tag. I'll have to manually add the hashtag to the post body to make it even visible on Lemmy. Edit: Kbin tags don't federate at all, not even to other Kbin instances.
Second, neither Lemmy nor Kbin let you search by tag within a magazine/community. I've been relying on all ten of our tags going unused in the rest of the Fediverse, so when someone clicks the tag, they get mostly Floating Is Fun posts. I changed the subreddit's Space tag to microgravity to avoid some of these conflicts. Unrelated posts still get caught up in windpower though.
Third, my tag implementation only looks good when my CSS is used, but my CSS only gets loaded when viewing on my home instance.
I think I figured it out. All you have to do is include a hashtag in the post body. I did that with this post here and the whole Fediverse can see it. Lemmy and Kbin are even smart enough to make those hashtags link back to a tag search on fedia.io. For a list of the ten hashtags, look in the sidebar and use any that apply, with a #
Interesting though I'm not sure if you need to include the link for it to work
Example
[#levitation](https://fedia.io/tag/levitation)[#levitation]#levitationFedia.io: all three link to https://fedia.io/tag/levitation
Kbin.social: all three link to https://kbin.social/tag/levitation which doesn't find Floating Is Fun posts ๐คช
Lemmy.world, web or Voyager, Bookwormstory.social, web or Voyager: First one links to https://fedia.io/tag/levitation , other two don't link
Mastodon: Post hasn't fully federated yet, but I think it'll just search for the tag locally
Interesing all three work
Thank you for helping figure this cross-platform stuff out. You're good at this! I've added you as a moderator, with your fedia.io and bookwormstory.social accounts.
Thanks. Actually floating is fun is my first experience with cross platform with lemmy ๐
Thanks for the finding ๐
