The number of subscribers listed in the sidebar is only the number of users from YOUR instance that are subscribed. This might make you feel like a community is ‘small’ or ‘dead’ when it actually isn’t....
I am honestly kinda curious how exactly you manage your servers and keep them up to date, I feel like there is a linux patch every week or so, which would usually require a reboot. Do you all deploy live patching, how you become aware of critical stuff in your otherwise busy lives, RSS?
You guys have been so awesome providing a list of Fedi clients. I will update the list based on you guys feedback. I ask for assistance once again. I want to make a running list of Fediverse projects. There are so many interesting projects that deserve attention and devs that deserve recognition. I will start off with some that...
This also works for any links on shields.io, but I didn’t notice the Lemmy & Mastodon links before. Please share anything else you discover while experimenting. I’ll edit in more tips as people find them...

Hey guys, with all of your help I would like to get a running list of apps for Fediverse platforms. In such a short time we’ve had so many apps develop and they’ve provided some incredible experiences. For those that have been on Fedi for some time, newer and those that will come, these client apps will play major roles in...
I like lemmy but I want to be able to interact with pixelfed mastodon etc. what apps have the best ability to do this?
I’m reading the ActivityPub spec here and it seems pretty fit for client-to-server communications. Yeah, it might be somewhat bulkier than your typical rest api, but it’s more universal, which begs the question: why do mastodon and lemmy both decided to implement custom (and incompatible) APIs for their clients to talk to...
In March, WordPress.com owner Automattic made a commitment to the fediverse – the decentralized social networks that include the Twitter rival Mastodon and others – with the acquisition of an ActivityPub plug-in that allows WordPress blogs to reach readers on other federated platforms. Now, the company is announcing...
This would push users toward local posts (especially on smaller instances) while still supporting a better distribution of user engagement over the threadiverse. And if you don’t trust that it was implemented correctly – you can simply check it by counting the amounts of posts against your chosen probabilities....
As a moderator of a Lemmy instance, you currently have two options to take: pushing users first to your local content or content from all instances you federate with. These options come with the costs seen in the picture. The moderator of another instance has the same choice. However, in this scenario, they will both always...
I’m using Memmy but trying to read comments in my notifications crashes the app half the time and seems like it’s not getting updates....
Hey Lemmy community!...
The All-Feed is very important to increase the content-quality of the threadiverse and therefore, ensure its existense. However, for smaller instances, there is only limited reason to put the All-Feed prominent in their UI, because their posts will never be present there. However, if they push people toward their the Local-Feed...

Fediverse has emerged as the popular choice when people look for Twitter alternatives. Personally I found Mastodon was like the early days of Twitter, without half as much toxicity....

In a world shrouded in mystery and enchantment, nestled amidst rolling hills and dense forests, there existed a small city. This quaint settlement was unlike any other, for it was enveloped by a mighty castle, its towering spires reaching for the heavens. And within those stone walls, a mad king reigned, his iron grip extending...
