Mike Macgirvin, the long-time developer that brought us Friendica, Hubzilla, Streams, and the Zot protocol, is bringing his most powerful concept to the rest of the Fediverse: Nomadic Identity.

The end goal of this proposal is to build interoperability features into GitLab so that it’s possible on one instance of GitLab to open a merge request to a project hosted on an other instance, merging all willing instances in a global network....

This post at the top of the community homepage explains and answers all of my issues....

Edit: The extension now lets you see lemmy comments on any website!...

Over the last decade, people called for a new narrative regarding climate change. One that is less doomerism and more positive. They managed to do that. The same needs to happen for the internet....

Is there a website that shows a list of dead instances and how long they were alive and why they died? I think that would be a cool website. It could be for Lemmy, Kbin, Mastodon, and everywhere else in the Fediverse!

I’m not sure how practical/sustainable of a project this would be, but I feel that it could possibly be a useful project in the future if instances begin to purge old content due to storage constaints. The archiving service could store all the data using Object storage to archive it in read only. That way, at least people can...

Someone linked a site that lets you search all the Lemmy communities but I lost the link. IIRC it presented all the communities in a tile based layout.

On reddit if I wanted to refer to a subreddit I’d type /r/oneOrangeBraincell/ and that would get turned into a link. What’s the lemmy equivalent?

I want to respond to writing prompts, but from a separate account. That way, if someone enjoys a story, they can scroll through my (alt account’s) history for more writing without needing to dig through all of the dramatic, vitriolic, shit-stirring my main account will be regularly diving into....

Should we create a second activitypub, the general goals would be to kick Meta/Mastodon out of the workgroup, mastodons goal seems to be to drive EEE by ushering facebook so they can “improve” activitypub. I feel like we need to splinter off an continue development without meta

I feel like if you scroll through any area outside of the fediverse you will here MASTODON SUCKKKKS OMG I HATE IT SO MUCH, it’s gonna fail. or comments saying mastodon will only exist for another year tops. Keep in mind I know in terms of microblogging apps for the fediverse mastodon is not the best, calckey is likely the best...

Hi I have an instance but still very underutilized. If anyone is feeling lawful-good please can you try using my instance for a while to increase the load?...

I need a little help here. I run into an unexpected occurrence, one that leaves me still wondering how it came about. I logged into my Lemmy account to disable 2FA because from my engagements, it’s not functional (if it is, kindly help me). I was required to provide a token when I couldn’t even obtain the codes then I run...

I found from hard way that lemmy community urls are bit problematic. Here is the story, which contains bit NSFW material....

Is the kbin project completely dead?...
