Recently, there’s been a large influx of new users (myself included; thus I apologize if this is not the right location for this post). A toxic trait associated with other platforms is the incorrect use of the downvote....

Mastodon's Founder & CEO Gives His Thoughts on Meta's Threads (blog.joinmastodon.org)

Found this post super informative as it relates to Mastodon, and thought Lemmy might also benefit from this perspective. I’m not sure I share his optimism, but his points seem sound to dampen some of the alarm bells over Meta joining the Fediverse.

Why I probably won't defederate from Threads (plume.helios42.de)

The fediverse is discussing if we should defederate from Meta’s new Threads app. Here’s why I probably won’t (for now)....

Is there a fediverse tool to replace something like discogs? I know there is BookWyrm for books, but is there anything kind of like that for music collections? I've tried googling and haven't found an

Does it seem like we’re mixing two concepts, having servers for users and content?

It feels like they’re two different roles.
