fediverse

I would like to find a list of lemmy communities to find similar to the ones i left behind on reddit...

Like breaking news or general news? I have a few lists that I like having open on my desktop.

I just fall on this and didn't know you can't remove stuff from lemmy....

I have a server I can use for hosting “stuff”. I want to add containers to host and help with the fediverse load balancing. Lemmy is a pain so if anyone has a simple docker yaml, could you share? And pixelfed is really cool so anyone know how to dockerize it and share it’s yaml? Cheers friends!

So I’m using mlem and wefwef apps. Issues with my comments and posts being posted. Also mlem app seems to have issues with photos both non nsfw and nsfw. Anyone else?

I've been on the Fediverse for a little while now, but I'm only getting into Lemmy now. I've noticed that it is very cumbersome to follow communities from other instances. You have to click on search, select "Communities", enter the name (but without the instance), find the correct one in the list if there's multiple and then...

Does anyone know if Lemmy automatically strips exif data from images posted?...

Having accounts in different Mastodon instances, for example, allows you to see more of Mastodon, because not all servers federate with the other servers, and some servers will recommend you different accounts, or will only partially show you posts from accounts on other servers. It also allows you to test out each one of those...

I’m very new here but I decided to check and compare the posts in a community on lemmy.world (where I have my account) and that same community on the instance where it resides and the posts were almost all completely different! Is that how it’s supposed to work or are they supposed to be synced? Sorry if this is a noob...

In a way this is also a test...

When I try posting a message in a community on that instance it just shows a spinning wheel forever. Anyone managed to post messages there recently?

I'm new to Lemmy, and I was not a Reddit user. I have been using Mastodon regularly since November, so I am familiar with the general concepts of instances in the Fediverse....

Hey friends! I’m looking to sign up for Mastodon and would love to hear what drew you to the server you are on? Also, what are servers with good reputation?

I've spent more than 7 years in Mastodon, and in my experience, new users always come in with a Twitter mindset, then getting a cultural shock because they come to Mastodon expecting a Twitter experience and end up finding something strange and bizarre....

Been using lemmy and really enjoying it. I have a twitter account that does me no good so Mastodon seemed very appealing. I joined an instance, made some posts, tried interacting with a lot of people. . . I dunno. It just never really grabbed me....

I would like to follow some nice and informative mastodon accounts. Any recommendation?

Sorry if this has been asked already, but I'm struggling with my google skills and fediverse right now...

Not sure why this is happening, it’s been like it since I came over and it’s quite annoying. No matter if it’s on All and filtered by Hot,Active etc, every so often new posts will auto feed right at the top and shift everything down....

Can other instances "back it up" so that the posts submitted to the instances aren't lost?

One of the biggest issues I'm having trouble getting past with Lemmy is not knowing which communities to subscribe to....

I used Imgur a lot to post pictures to reddit and since I replaced reddit with lemmy already I thought it would be nice to replace Imgur as well....

Was using Lemmy.ca as my home instance for a while, now it’s gone. Just wondering what happened or where I can find out.

My tendency seems to be owning my own business and freelancing until I die (until I get stable enough to build my own products). I've been trying to connect with more business-minded people--"average of 5 people" type of mentality. Currently it seems that the only way of doing this is LinkedIn....

Too many people are confusing the two. Whenever lemmy.ml or its devs do something stupid, people go “Lemmy is getting worse and worse,” or “I’m leaving Lemmy,” or worse, “I’m leaving for Beehaw.”...
