Best place to post memes?

I have a meme account on Instagram, which I’d like to also have on the Fediverse. Can anyone recommend me a Pixelfed instance for this? Or maybe another type of server?

If I want to create backup communities in a different instance, is there a way to mirror the original communities in the new instance?

Possibly a dumb question, but is there, or could one of the extra smart people here build, a federated marketplace to allow for direct buying and selling without the middle-man enshittification of ebay, reverb, and the like?

Is there a guide somewhere to how well Lemmy / kbin / Mastadon / etc interact?

As I understand it, the main fediverse softwares all implement ActivityPub in a little bit different way, and so don’t fully overlap with one another in terms of how well you can see content from one on another and in what ways you can interact with it. Is there a summary anywhere that just has a quick breakdown of what...

What are some examples of fediverse first apps/platforms?

By fediverse first, I mean that the app/site/platform was built from the start to be federated instead of being like corporate site but FOSS & federated....

I joined a couple of other instances and it doesn’t show one of them.

An in-depth report reveals an ugly truth about isolated, unmoderated parts of the Fediverse. It’s a solvable problem, with challenges.

PeerTube has a federation problem

With the mass migrations of Reddit users to Lemmy/Kbin, and Twitter now speedrunning its own mass extinction, it seems me that the eventual future of social media is de-centralized. I like how Lemmy is slowing turning out, even if it still has some work to do and growing pains to fix up. It’s still able to inform me of all of...

What happened to Lemmy ML? It had disappeared from my list and I had to log in again.

Did I get punished for saying something wrong? Did it get an update?

Someone should really revamp email

Email is already nicely federated, but I think it’s time for a change. Services like protonmail claim to offer encryption between users, but you can’t host your own instance. It would be awesome if there was a spec somewhere for a federated email service that defines...
