Threads is officially starting to test ActivityPub integration (www.theverge.com)

Fediverse now well past 14 Million total users (fediverse.observer)

On the Lemmy specific front, Active daily users seems to still be stabilising following the exodus from elsewhere, Comments and Posts both seem to be on the rise though – promising stats all in all.

If we're going to have an effective strategy against FB/Meta, we should clear up some misconceptions around defederation

Now that we're finally out of reddit, can we finally get different tag for NSFW and NSFL?

For the uninitiated, generally NSFW is for sexual contents and NSFL is for gory contents. People may want to see one but not see the other at any time for any reason. I have seen this feature requested over the years in Reddit but it never happens. Maybe now some instance can finally implement it?

“Wherever you get your podcasts” is a radical statement (www.anildash.com)

In another thread, I read a user’s comment about how the lemmy experience has got progressively worse over the past few months, with a lot more trash content making it to their front page....

Advice for now settled new Lemmy users.

Whether you are a Reddit refugee (I am one) or just randomly stumbled upon Lemmy and decided to join lemmy.world, welcome to the Fediverse....
