fediverse

I get the general gist, like email different instances can communicate with each other but beyond that I’m lost....

Sorry, I stopped using Reddit for way less than what people in the fediverse have done....

Edit: thanks everyone for the suggestions!...

By advantage I mean posts from those instances receiving more visibility than others on feeds that sort by score (active, hot, top)....

I am considering creating my own lemmy instance as my current instance (lemmy.world) is often down, and I enjoy this kind of a project. That being said I haven’t been able to find any resources on hw needed for this? If I have a raspberry pi 4b 8g with 128gb is that enough for just me using it? Do I need to pay for a cloud...

Communities on different instances about the same topic should have the option to essentially federate so a post on one appears on all of them and opening any of them shows you the comments from all of them. This way when lemmy.world is down its not a big deal because posting to any news community federates to all of the...

Seems like they are under attack again, will those people never stop? I feel sorry for the admin team.

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

By browsing the current top of the day, besides the usual posts in Programmer Humor and the tech communities, you can notice a few posts in !comicstrips by @otter...

I’m a Patreon now! Lemmy has become my daily goto (yes, ex reddit) and you guys deserve all the support you can get!...

Frequently, I need to answer the question, “Is this source of information reliable?”. Lately, I have been thinking that a decentralized platform to post reviews for websites and see aggregated statistics about those reviews would be pretty useful....

Found this by accident, it appeared in a google search....

As title, standard lemmy in browser…

Please indulge a few shower thoughts I had:...

This is going to be a short and sweet little history of Reddit. Reddit was founded in 2005....

Hey there everyone! I have a possibly noobish question about the number of active users....

Usually, when you open a website, that site might be pulling live data from somewhere, but it’s from a database on the same server. If you click a Fediverse link, and no-one else from your instance has already done so, it seems like your instance has to contact a remote site, pull the data and render it, in the same timeframe...

I have looked and I see people make their own instance of lemmy...

I am curious about the fediverse outside of lemmy. Is there any good documentation or recommended services? I’ve seen talk of mastadon, matrix, and kbin but I don’t understand how use them with my current Lemmy account....

I never saw anybody complaining about Sync or its pricing. But I’ve been inundated with bad memes about how it’s wrong to criticize Sync....

Hi, I’m focusing on generating content for a few communities that I feel can be successful and have less content than I expected:...

Should politicians use mastodon instead of Twit… sorry… X? What do you think about it? I think if popular people (like politicians) start using fediverse, more people will become interested in this technology. If so, how do you convince them?

With all the talk about expensive clients, how to fund the developers and big instances not managing to keep up with the influx of users, I’d like to tell you about my work on Communick and what I am proposing as an alternative model for a sustainable growth of the Fediverse....
