Hey all,...

Lots of small improvements across the user experience, and opt-in search, make this an important release.

Sometimes I struggle to convey what continues to fascinate me about dezentraly organized social media - its like explaining to someone who never played Go why its awesome who never played it....

For-profit tech companies like #Threads and #Flipboard are beginning to implement #ActivityPub, and that's been causing a lot of chaos lately. Thus, I've found it helpful to take a step back, consider what it is about the fediverse that I value, and think about whether federation with these large platforms will bring us closer...

Is this a singular occurrence for me, or is it prevalent across the instance?...

I’ve updated the bot and added the possibility of translating hardcoded links (like this one: lemmy.world/post/2355178 or this one: lemmy.world/comment/1863672) to posts/comments with links from your instance when you mention him. I’ll show an example in comments.

If you are interested in sharing book recommendations with other, or just manage your books, then bookwyrm is great for that! The .world team also has a bookwyrm instance up and running at bookwyrm.world with a community here on lemmy as well at !bookwyrm. Read Ruuds original post about it here: https://lemmy.world/post/5904792...

By novel I mean not emulating an existing popular platform, e.g. Lemmy-Reddit, Mastodon-Twitter, etc.

Seems to have fixed some of the federation issues (some instances still experience some, but that probably needs to be investigated by the local admins)

When I join threadiverse (summer 2023), soon everyone was talking about Threads and how it was about to destroy the whole thing....
