fediverse

I was wondering if there was a community where admins of different instances got together and chat in general about decisions for how they run their instances....

I’m envisioning a hypothetical future where, alongside competing with platforms like Reddit/Twitter/Instagram/etc, federated platforms compete with retail or service-providing platforms like Amazon, Uber, Fiverr, Airbnb, etc, platforms that primarily just serve to connect users to other users and handle transactions between...

Is there an app that allows me to use both Lemmy and Mastodon (and possibly other Fediverse programs?)

Mastodon Clone by Red Planet Labs...

I have been curious of this one since it’s a feature that mastodon has, and while I understand with FOSS software anyone can disable that, but usually people don’t and if I knew they were doing that I would defederate them.

Just a little rant. When I first visited Lemmy Sites a couple of months ago it felt empty. Besides the really mainstream community pretty much everything else just felt empty....

i have no problems accessing firefish and pixelfed using other browsers (duckduckgo and firefox) but i cant access the same servers using safari....

Are there any paid services for either Lemmy or Mastodon? Something where, given it is a subscription service, you would expect them to stick around long-term?

Communities on different instances about the same topic should have the option to essentially federate so a post on one appears on all of them and opening any of them shows you the comments from all of them. This way when lemmy.world is down its not a big deal because posting to any news community federates to all of the...

Is it possible to one day replace the privacy nightmare of Amazon with a decentralized merchant network? All I really use Amazon for these day is aggregate customer reviews by query, then buy the items as direct as possible. Why can’t respectable tools to this instead? I understand the cost, but could the tech be adopted?

I want to self host my own lemmy instance for personal use. I have seen there Github page and it is really easy to set up but I have some questions?...

I’m currently using Memmy for Lemmy, Mammoth and Ice Cubes for Mastodon, and the official Pixelfed beta....

I’m wanting to ditch Strava for something selfhostable that also has ActivityPub support. Is there such a thing?

I’ll be scrolling through lemmy world and occasionally I’ll see comments where a word in them has been replaced with removed. Usually from context it’s early a swear word, normal stuff not slurs....

Is there such a thing as an application that attempts to talk with the various ActivityPub-implementing tools using their own implementation of ActivityPub?...

Using the recently created property wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P11947...

I’ve made an open source tool for scheduling posts to Lemmy, you can find it at schedule.lemmings.world. It can be used by users from any instance and it can be self-hosted if you wish so!...

Recently I've dove a little deeper into the Fediverse. I began with Mastodon like many others and I'm ready to move on. Mastodon as a software in comparison to similar services in the Fediverse like Calckey/Firefish, Friendica, Misskey, etc. just isn't as good and the only thing it has going for it is an established user base...

Similar to Mastodon’s spikes last year, it seems. Anyways, there is data to think about. Source

Seems like they are under attack again, will those people never stop? I feel sorry for the admin team.

Recently cult of the dead cow came out with veilid, a secure decentralised way of sending encrypted information and i think this could be a huge asset to lemmy. Cult of the dead cow even mentions mastadon by name as they say this is the type of application it was designed for. If veilidchat takes off then i really hope the devs...
