How do people feel about Akkoma? It seems to be a fork of pleroma that’s been showing up in comments lately. If you’ve tried it please share your experience.
I’ve made an app that makes it possible to schedule a post in Lemmy at an arbitrary time. It’s available at schedule.lemmings.world and can be used by people from any instance....

Integration between WordPress and ActivityPub has been a long time coming. It’s existed in several different iterations over the years, but the latest attempt is directly sponsored by Automattic, the owners of WordPress.

Today I learnt that at beehaw.org you don’t really have to break any instance/community rules to have your comments removed by the admin. In their wiki page they wrote over the top, corporate-sounding articles about how “Beehaw aspires to be a diverse place” where “everyone plays an important role in that mission”, how...
I was recently inspired by this post made by @mookulator to get the subscription statistics for a list of Lemmy instances....
I posted a bit ago on a different account, and yeah here we are. I actually set it up!...
An in-depth report reveals an ugly truth about isolated, unmoderated parts of the Fediverse. It’s a solvable problem, with challenges.
On Mastodon, Followers-only posts are only visible to your followers – and to admins of any instances your followers on. But if you haven’t turned on “approve followes”, anybody who’s logged in to an instance you haven’t blocked can follow you and get access to your followers-only posts....
Just passing on a tip from FediTips I didn’t know about. Using the format...
