fediverse

Hi!...

Meta said on Monday that it plans to “temporarily” shutter Threads in Turkey from April 29, in response to an interim injunction imposed by the Turkish competition authority last month over the way Meta shares data between Threads and Instagram....

I just got banned from [email protected], which seems to be the biggest Linux community out there....

I realise this is a known issue and that lemmy.world isn’t the only instance that does this. Also, I’m aware that there are other things affecting federation. But I’m seeing some things not federate, and can’t help thinking that things would be going smoother if all the output from the biggest lemmy instance wasn’t 50%...

I recently finished the episode of The Verge’s podcast #Decoder with the interview to Bluesky’s CEO and it seems a quite interesting project. At the beginning I wasn’t looking really into it because of their choice of using a new protocol instead of the existing ActivityPub, but after listening to her and the reasons...

If the spirit of the fediverse is to spread everything across small instances, then i think it would be really important to make communities, especially niche communities, easier to discover across instances.

Highlighting the recent report of users and admins being unable to delete images, and how Trust & Safety tooling is currently lacking.

Is there somewhere that I can find historical data? Does Lemmy...

Looks like another microblogging service promising Fediverse integration.

Social bookmarking is a novel use case for ActivityPub and I’m super excited about it. I heckin’ love links and lists! I wanna use them for everything....

Is there any interest in this idea?...

They removed the post about how Hilary’s campaign supported Trump and made up a rule on the spot about not being recent. The first rule they noted as an excuse states:...

Right now, I’m feeling concerned and wondering what is going on in regards to Sublinks here, since I have created a community for discussion on koalas about a week ago on here and have started and been doing work on it recently. But now I’m hearing about Sublinks and feeling concerned if I created it on the wrong instance or...

An interesting take on the fediverse, namely mastodon.

Hi all! I’m working on my cyber security bachelor’s thesis and am reaching out to gather insights from users who use decentralized messaging applications....

Lemmy users, you can now vote for your favourite song in Lemmyvision’s song contest, an Eurovision-like song contest, in which various instances submitted a song of their choice!...
