Should politicians use mastodon instead of Twit… sorry… X? What do you think about it? I think if popular people (like politicians) start using fediverse, more people will become interested in this technology. If so, how do you convince them?
I am considering creating my own lemmy instance as my current instance (lemmy.world) is often down, and I enjoy this kind of a project. That being said I haven’t been able to find any resources on hw needed for this? If I have a raspberry pi 4b 8g with 128gb is that enough for just me using it? Do I need to pay for a cloud...

Is this a singular occurrence for me, or is it prevalent across the instance?...
It was really been a blast to run this event, thank you all for participating!! ♥♥♥...

ACFM hosts step back from their screens to survey the totalising modern phenomenon that is The Internet, dredging up their early interactions with a primitive web and explain how the dream of free and open communication was displaced by closed networks of e-commerce and data harvesting.

One part of our work is to establish a BBC presence in the distributed collection of social networks known as the Fediverse, a collection of social media...
Is there any website that shows the federation status between instances in some graphical way like Venn diagram or whatever?
Found this by accident, it appeared in a google search....
I’m just asking for recommendations in case, I feel like migrating to a smaller instance or maybe try kbin for a change (but I’ll miss the voyager web app)

Usually, when you open a website, that site might be pulling live data from somewhere, but it’s from a database on the same server. If you click a Fediverse link, and no-one else from your instance has already done so, it seems like your instance has to contact a remote site, pull the data and render it, in the same timeframe...
