What is lemmy.world doing defederating before hexbear even federates? lemmy.world/instances...

I found one post from 12 hours ago that describes the problem: lemmy.ml/post/2650814 - but that’s all I’ve seen. Content is way down on lemmy.ml with nothing coming in from .world...

On reddit if I wanted to refer to a subreddit I’d type /r/oneOrangeBraincell/ and that would get turned into a link. What’s the lemmy equivalent?

So recently learnt about Mastodon, thought I will just try it!...

From the article:...

“As the social media landscape ebbs and flows, the team at BBC Research & Development are researching social technologies and exploring possibilities for the BBC. One part of our work is to establish a BBC presence in the distributed collection of social networks known as the Fediverse, a collection of social media...

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.

I have checked my posts and seen comments and replies about which I was not notified, but only sometimes.

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....

It’s been a while since I last seen anyone posting graphs showing user base growth. Are we past the initial rush and bleeding numbers now?

Recently I've dove a little deeper into the Fediverse. I began with Mastodon like many others and I'm ready to move on. Mastodon as a software in comparison to similar services in the Fediverse like Calckey/Firefish, Friendica, Misskey, etc. just isn't as good and the only thing it has going for it is an established user base...

I feel like almost every single piece of software has some problematic dev that has racism, transphobia, or both. I recently read a post about the calc key devs and sighed *facepalm. It is honestly really annoying cause I want friends to use Fedi but than you can pull up a whole laundry list of problems with the devs and it’s...

I clicked on a link to the comment, then I keep pressing “show context” to see the comment one level higher, then I get hit with this screen…...

I am trying to switch away from Lemmy.world after getting used to Lemmy to reduce the stress on their servers and add to the decentralized nature of Lemmy.

[Edit 2: I think anyone commenting should identify how much they use Facebook in their comment lol]...

I’m very new to the fediverse, but I love the concept. I was really excited about the idea of setting up my own instance (because apparently I can’t just wade into the shallow end first). As I started reading guides and thinking through how it would all work, a question popped into my mind: How does an instance A discover...

I follow the #americana on Mastodon and there is a some pretty good recommendations for music that come from the hashtag. Is there any way to elegantly boost a Mastodon “toot” to a Lemmy community?

Hi guys. This is not going to be a long post and I will briefly explain why I didn’t like Lemmy and going straight back to Reddit....

I had an account on lemmy.one and now the instance has been down for a day or two so I made this new account. I also heard other small instances are dead or disappeared....

Since I’ve been on Lemmy, I don’t know what my use is for Mastodon anymore. It’s dead on there anyway. I don’t have anyone to talk to and nobody responds to my posts.

**EDIT (2023-07-31T22:18:52Z):**I have realized that I was not clear in my original intent for this post – it could be interepereted to mean that I am asking whether or not you could access, for example, Lemmy through the Tor browser. This is not what I meant. What I was more alluding to was if it were possible to create a...

It seems that self hosting, for oneself, a federated service, like Lemmy, would only serve to increase the traffic in the network, and not actually serve the purpose of load balancing between servers....

When is Jerboa getting push notifications?

misskey is another federated social media. Has anyone tried it? Thanks github.com/misskey-dev/misskey
