Am I the only one that saw the change of LemmyWorld to Israel with the redirection to obscene sites for a brief moment? Talking of the Web client

Useful Masto thread on strategy.

So I’ve got my own instance running, and I’m stumped as how to go about finding new communities if it only shows communities I’m already subscribed too....

I see it as a win if all instances defederate with Threads but several “read-only” instances federates with it. At least it can be viewed in privacy friendly way.

For example in the screenshot (twitch clip), if you want to share on reddit you click the reddit button, but what button are devs supposed to put to share in the fediverse? Do they pick an instance of their choice?! Is this a weakness of a federated platform or what?

Is there a way that users could cohost an instance? If there isn’t, I think that would be a great feature to implement. Having a situation where instances slow down or even occasionally disconnect will be hard on any community. I feel like it could eventually cause people to prefer using instances owned by large and well...

Perhaps this is a dumb question, if so sorry! I don’t want to move from here, but I do like the old-school layout over at mlmym.org

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?...

Is there any website that shows the federation status between instances in some graphical way like Venn diagram or whatever?

Since Bluesky reopened for signups, does anyone have any invite codes? If so, feel free to DM me. I want to get out of Twitter.

I would like to find a list of lemmy communities to find similar to the ones i left behind on reddit...

My tendency seems to be owning my own business and freelancing until I die (until I get stable enough to build my own products). I've been trying to connect with more business-minded people--"average of 5 people" type of mentality. Currently it seems that the only way of doing this is LinkedIn....

I’ve been seeing some complaints about paywalled content being posted in the rss.ponder.cat communities....

While monitoring my Pi-Hole logs today, I noticed a bunch of queries for XXXXXX.bodis.com, where XXXXXX are numbers. I saw a few variations for the numbers, each one being queried several times....

I mocked up a better workflow for video in a mastodon mobile app. I’m not a developer, just a mobile user who wants to stay in their fedi app of choice (currently Moshidon) while enjoying multimedia content and not get booted out to a web browser every time I want to watch a video or listen to a podcast. I still have no idea...

I’ve been trying to access all day but it is still out on web and voyager app.

Is there a way to subscribe to a post/comment of others to get notifications for new comments? If it’s currently not available, is it being worked on?

What’s going on with the server? My alt account lives there and he could use a welfare visit. It’s been offline for at least three days....

I suspect the fedi-collective has more negotiating power in this moment than it realizes. We may as well make some asks, see how Meta responds, and they in turn will see how the public, the media and the regulators respond to them in this bold new era of pervasive Big Tech skepticism....

Today, we’re releasing an open labeling system on Bluesky. “Labeling” is a key part of moderation; it is a system for marking content that may need to be hidden, blurred, taken down, or annotated in applications. Labeling is how a lot of centralized moderation works under the hood, but nobody has ever opened it up for...

The Mixtape is an ongoing effort by We Distribute to showcase the musicians of the Fediverse and their work. Each issue is a playlist of 10 tracks centered around a theme, that our followers can vote on....
