And what the heck are note collisions?

In a federated network, like Mastodon, there can be user name collision, where two people share the same user name. What do you see for the @'d note I linked? It loads someone else's post on Damus, but loads correctly on Iris

This is so freakin weiRd,and there's no one person that can even help...:(

Is that the same thing as hash collision?

Hey similar 👍 like an MD5 hash collision, yea

Is that a problem,i think i've been saying that but can't articulately explain it....

Why does that happen?

Not sure if it did. But I published a note using Iris and it never showed up on Damus. And when I try to link it on Damus, it shows someone else's post 🤷‍♂️Very odd.

I think this is whats happenning when i try to create images like badges,or posts or notes or whatever what they call them...for sure ill be creating new usernames/profiles/userid's or whatever they call them as i will be again banned/filtered/deleted...why can't they just tell the truth...am i contributing or i am just paranoid?

If i am giving something why am i not given back?

If i am paranoid why do i see/create things no one can't explain or gives me direct answers?
