fediverse

I haven’t been able to subscribe to any communities hosted on kbin instances. I can see the communities, but they stay at “subscribe pending” and the posts never show up....

I keep trying to add banners to my communities, but get errors about size limits etc....

Is it possible to send private messages from lemmy to mastodon or other fediverse apps...

Hello everyone,...

Reinvestment...

There’s been an ongoing debate about whether communities should combine or stay separate. Both have significant disadvantages and advantages:...

I just discovered baraza.africa, which is an African focused instance....

I have a fair amount of experience with data visualization, analysis etc and thought it would be a fun project to try to visualize the Lemmy network, specifically which instances have strong links to one another via subscriptions from users in one to communities in the other....

I know of:...

Title. I remember community flairs from the red betrayer and they where immensely useful to me to determine info about others configurations etc. are they something lemmy has discussed adding? If not why?

I was never extremely active on Mastodon until recently but I followed it’s development relatively closely from its infancy. And I will say that it’s really strange to watch lemmy face nearly identical issues that Mastodon did when it was in a similar development stages. (Though, some of the drama thus far have been...

Hello everyone,...

Is there a way to follow lemmy communities in usenet, a bit like there is gwane for rss and gmane for mailing lists?

In essence, what woud you say lemmy is? A way to have all your old forum subscriptions in one place in the form of communies?...

i migrated from mastodon to firefish recently, and now i’m thinking of moving back to mastodon on account of the shit mobile support firefish has. is this possible?

What’s the best way to see the list of instances a given lemmy instance has defederated from?

I want to know how to use the Antenna feature of Firefish to customize my feed and see more relevant content based on the topics I like, how to follow lemmy communities, how to post on lemmy and vote posts/comments on lemmy from there. Is there a documentation where I can learn about that?

My experience with the Fediverse has only been through Mastodon, through which I struggled to find a community I really gelled with. Either it was supper overwhelming with meme posts or NSFW, or it was too chill to the point of nothing. Or, it was hyperfocused like FOSS/Linux and became uninteresting after awhile. May try again,...

I would like to be able to choose how much I want to see of the topics I like. What platform offers something similar to Bluesky customizable feeds but in the fediverse?

I’ve noticed a lot of people complain that niche communities aren’t really all that present here or are difficult to find. Having some consolidated in specific instances is very helpful for discovery as well as spreading the federation around....

I’m looking for an automatic way to search for an instance that blocks another instance. Instead of manually checking the blocked instances of multiple instances until I find the one that blocks the instance I don’t want to see, I’m wondering if there is a more efficient and automated method to identify such instances.

Pretty straight question....
