This magazine is from a federated server and may be incomplete. Browse more on the original instance.
The fascinating thing about PeerTube right now is that the frontend experience actually seems to be best on other services. This is primarily because discoverability between instances is fairly poor due to both federation mechanics and due to the nature of bootstrapping social. Because Lemmy and Mastodon feature their own human...
I’ve been on Lemmy for some time now and it’s time for me to finally understand how Federation works. I have general idea and I have accounts on three federated instances, but I need some details....
I prefer good faith discussions please. I love the Fediverse and love what it can be long term. The problem is that parts of the culture want nothing to do with financial aspect. Many are opposed to ads, memberships, sponsorships etc The “small instances” response does nothing to positively contribute to the conversation....

We should implement this as whenever I wish to browse (for example) [email protected] I have to go to there, and whenever I wish to browse [email protected] I have to go there. Would it be possible to implement it in kbin/lemmy's code to make it easier to browse all?
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...

Many of us came from Reddit and are still exploring Lemmy by browsing “Everything” or “All”....
Is there a website that shows a list of dead instances and how long they were alive and why they died? I think that would be a cool website. It could be for Lemmy, Kbin, Mastodon, and everywhere else in the Fediverse!
I’ve been telling a lot of people about it, but everyone’s a skeptic. I’ve heard a lot of people saying that they’re just going to wait to see which Reddit clone comes out on top before switching. Most of them haven’t heard of the other parts of the fediverse like mastodon. I’d like to leave fb/instagram, but like...
***Edit:*Shit, I probably should have made the title plural - “Does Lemmy need charters?”...
Is there a reason why all the services, that use the ActivityPub protocol don't have a unified API?...

I am an old internet user. One of the things that used to drive me nuts was when all these corporate products like Reddit, Twitter, Facebook, Google+, etc. would change their entire UIs on a whim without any user feedback. I am a big fan of the pre-material design language UIs that did not contain any shiny/glossy elements of...
I’ve gotten so tired of the non-stop reddit/lemmy/mastodon/threads drama I pulled the plug on all recurring donations for the foreseeable future. Thanks to threads the fedverse is starting the reddit style drama cycles and I’m pretty much over trying to sort through it....
So recently learnt about Mastodon, thought I will just try it!...
I’m starting to notice spam accounts here — accounts that do nothing but post and crosspost links to low-quality or promotional websites....
Given the recent attack, I think this is a good opportunity to remind of the importance of using 2FA....
This is good for us, and for businesses, influencers and celebrities....
I get the impression that we’re headed for the same issues that pop up when we put all our eggs in one basket with Reddit/FB/whatever. People flock to the largest instance, and someday that instance could go down due to cost or the host losing interest....
It feels like they’re two different roles. It might be better to have user-orientated servers that prioritise federation of content and only have a couple of meta-style communities, and other servers which prioritise being the go-to place for discussion on a particular topic and less a place that manages a large number of user...
It can be Lemmy, Mastodon, Peertube, anything Fediverse-related!
I hope this is the right community to post in....
Do they get adopted by other instances? Are they still accessible from other instances? Can you still post on them from another instance?...
