A really interesting look at the recent spam wave.
Creatives of whichever fields, whether writers, artists, musicians, meme-makers, developers, film makers, and the like and/or communities, I’m curious to know about some of the people around the fediverse creating some original stuff....
Last year, the corporate-dominated web came alive, much thanks to the help of corporate-owned social media platforms - how long will it take until the open sections of the web do so?...
I do not know whether anybody else has already said this, but Lemmy could really use a feature that would allow individual users to block instances. I think it could have spared some of the defederation word wars that have been going on lately, since that would be an individual choice rather than a collective one....

Recently cult of the dead cow came out with veilid, a secure decentralised way of sending encrypted information and i think this could be a huge asset to lemmy. Cult of the dead cow even mentions mastadon by name as they say this is the type of application it was designed for. If veilidchat takes off then i really hope the devs...
Hi, looking to move away from lemmy.world. not that my experience is not going well, it’s just that in the last 2 months I’ve come to find what I want to see in the instance I’m part of. I simply want to check before making my choice information on defederation. I haven’t pirated anything in the last few years, but...
In the Fediverse, what is the solution to instances or servers going missing?...
I’m a Patreon now! Lemmy has become my daily goto (yes, ex reddit) and you guys deserve all the support you can get!...
I don’t even know how to begin to figure this out. How many communities are there across every instance (or even just among those that are federated at all)?
As a new user to all these sites, I’m confused about they interact with each other. For example, on Lemmy, I can view a Mastodon account, but I can’t view that account’s posts. This makes sense, as sorting your home feed by “all” could hypothetically result in your feed getting flooded by popular Mastodon posts....
My other instance has been down for two days and I’m not sure where to go to see updates/discussion etc....

I think it’s the one sub that I miss that would lend itself well to having a bot repost them since you’re not supposed to contact the op anyway. I don’t know how to do bots and I think it would be an easy success if someone wants that.
I’d like to self-host Lemmy or kbin and mastodon. I know I could use different subdomain for each, but I’d much rather keep it short. Something tells me, however, that other instances might not be happy about it....
I’ve recently been made aware of the non-sustainable business of Spotify (and other streaming services) youtu.be/gDfNRWsMRsU ....
Meta exist to make a profit, however they’re never going to be able to advertise to most people in the fediverse, who also happen to be some of the most knowledgeable people in some fields. If they accept that they’re never going to be able to advertise to those people, they go for the next best thing: monetising their...
Aether is a reddit alternative not dissimilar to Lemmy in that it is distributed and open source....
I wasn’t sure how to find the communities I’m interested in, so I quickly hacked together a scraper that makes a list of all the communities(1) of all the servers mine is federating to(2)....
By illegal I mean a lot of things It could either be piracy, black market, child pornography, etc.
Hello Lemmings!...
