Hello! I recently set up a small instance running on pleroma which was my first time setting up something like that. I’m currently thinking about abandoning it, wiping the computer, and doing everything over again, this time with all of the knowledge I have now so Ill mess less things up, a dramatically better site name, as...

When you step outside the fediverse and try to talk to others about it on corporate platforms, chances are you’ll either get, “Yeah that’s too complicated” or “Isn’t it full of [insert bad people here]?” or some variation thereof, at least if they’ve heard of it at all. A lot of this comes down to communication...

They seems to really embrace open social media. I have a couple of questions to see what their true intension is. It is assumed that they would federate with fediverse soon (plenty of reports of that already)...

Hey guys. I admittedly am mostly a layman to the Fediverse as a concept. So I am coming into this post with the knowledge that I don’t understand the technical intricacies of it....

I registered with some smaller instances in case of server issues and defederation (beehaw) with lemmyworld. I noticed a community [email protected] that I follow from Lemmy.world is not viewable at all on lemm.ee or midwest.social for some reason. It does not come up in search and if I manually go to it’s empty. If I go to my...

This is good for us, and for businesses, influencers and celebrities....

Working on an awesome Macro/Microblogging project to bring to the Fediverse. Very excited as it has been built based on hundreds of users feedback regarding Mastodon and the Fediverse. I know time is precious so not looking to suck up anyones time. I respect whatever bandwidth people have to give.

I just wanted to share my thoughts with you. I will appreciate hearing what you think....

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...

I get why World and many others defederated from Burggit. Obviously it has questionable content which is not great to have stored on big servers for legal reasons....

Aether is a reddit alternative not dissimilar to Lemmy in that it is distributed and open source....

I heard it will be on the Fediverse. Is it true? I heard it had 30 millions users registered on the first day. Wtf. The whole Fediverse doesn’t even have 10 millions users. I heard it will not be available in Europe, yet. I visited www.threads.net and I don’t know if it’ll be the Threads instance to the Fediverse....

This has come to mind because all the chatter about Meta federating....

…or how do you all picture the endgame of Meta’s EEE campaign?...

I’m aware that many Soapbox instances are somewhat controversial. Is this to the extent that any Soapbox instance would have the same reputation?

Within 5 minutes of usage my pihole instance blocked 100s of request and DDG app protection blocked facebook trackers. This should be illegal...

Everyone is talking about how Meta is trying to Embrace, Extend, and Extinguish the Fediverse. Meta won’t be alone for long in this goal, there will be a lot of capitalist actors that would try to do the same in the long run....

I don’t understand what Meta will gain from participating in the fediverse? Their ultimate goal is to make money of Threads and I just don’t see how encouraging an open federation will help them do it? Even 3Eing the fediverse will not do them much good as they already have sooo much traffic already that killing the...

Discussion topic for you all, I’m curious to hear everyone’s thoughts on this!...

Everywhere I look there are people advocating for defederation from this and that! Do you even understand what you’re suggesting? Do you get what’s the point of decentralized social media and activity pub?...

It’s so funny seeing a large group (almost all) of the people in my feed being so excited about this new social media thing that they managed to get in through invitation on Instagram....
