fediverse

Don’t get me wrong I’m a big fan but it seems like the fediverse could theoretically exist with like 5 users whereas a commercial company needs users for revenue. It feels like we are using the masters tools to try to destroy the masters house

A ton of countries have a decently active Lemmy instance, including the English-speaking ones (UK, AUS, NZ, ZA)....

Since Lemmy and Threads are federated, how can I see Threads content? Also, is there a list of federated instances? Thanks!

What I know so far:...

So I’ve got my own instance running, and I’m stumped as how to go about finding new communities if it only shows communities I’m already subscribed too....

Is this feature available? If not, when developed, will it be available for only certain instances?

Everything works great there locally, but I can’t subscribe to communities on other instances and can’t see my instance from lemmy.world....

Right now there are similarely named communities across the fediverse....

I see it as a win if all instances defederate with Threads but several “read-only” instances federates with it. At least it can be viewed in privacy friendly way.

I am still working through fediverse communities to curate my subscribed experience. As such, I still like to look at Local/All feeds to get ideas for additional subs. While doing that, there are many topics/communities that just aren’t relevant to me. I would like to be able to preemptively block them rather than have to...

So I saw a recent post on lemmy from admins of another instance, forgive me for not remembering which, where they posted a full transparency update on Meta requesting a meeting with the admins of that instance. The admins declined, and then shared the correspondence with their community via screenshots of the original email from...

Afaik, whenever an Activitypub instance has defederated from another it has always had to do with some combination of bad user behavior, poor moderation, and/or spam. Are the various instance admins who have decided to preemptively block threads.net simply convinced that these traits will be inevitable with it? Is it more of a...

Automatically creating a shadow account for everyone on Instagram?...

There are two ways to discover new communities:...

I like how they list if a site is part of the fedivers or not.

***Edit:*Shit, I probably should have made the title plural - “Does Lemmy need charters?”...

I looked up a list of Lemmy World instances and signed up for a bunch, but how do I see everything at once in one app instead of downloading one for each instance? I am new to what the kids call “federation.” Thank you.

Hey there, I finally decided to try out Pixelfed and made an account on an Instance close to me (really nice instance-finder imho). Yet, the instance itself is rather small and when I open the global feed, Pixelfed turns into a mastodon-client basically since all it shows are Mastodon-Toots. Also, all “Discover” Features...

We’re seeing an increase from 53k active users at the beginning of July to 72k active users at the time of this post....

The mastodon and lemmy content I’m seeing feels like 90% of it comes from people who are:...

Hi everybody, I’m a UI/UX designer and I wanna contribute to the community here with my expertise. Here is a quick prototype for a Android Lemmy app with Material You Design, it’s a simple and customizable app. With this app, I also want to improve the experience when exploring different servers....

Why can’t we have federated identity to login into fediverse instead of creating login for each instance?

Lemmy just reached a new milestone: 1 million posts, across 1,323 servers....
