Similar to Mastodon’s spikes last year, it seems. Anyways, there is data to think about. Source

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...

For the uninitiated, generally NSFW is for sexual contents and NSFL is for gory contents. People may want to see one but not see the other at any time for any reason. I have seen this feature requested over the years in Reddit but it never happens. Maybe now some instance can finally implement it?

I think now is a great time to remind everyone, like sync’s developer, Lemmy’s developers need to be paid too! The amount of time all the devs put into making lemmy exist, in my opinion, should be worth some of your money. If you can afford it, donating to the people who develop lemmy and/or the people keeping your home...

It was really been a blast to run this event, thank you all for participating!! ♥♥♥...

Wow, things have changed since I last posted in /c/fediverse. Here are the top five most active instances based on monthly active users:...

Seems like they are under attack again, will those people never stop? I feel sorry for the admin team.

Many NSFW have nothing to do with porn. Sometimes are horror contents, some times are crude images, some times are just lazy people who don’t know of the Spoiler tag. Can we have a quick and easy way to filter off all the (very funny but not alway wanted) Porn posts without locking out those other contents???

Hey, I made a simple webapp, that shows you a random community with basic stats, description and top 10 posts of all time from this community....
