The funny thing about these DDos attacks on Lemmy World is that the hackers seem to forget that other instances exist.

If they’re trying to attack all of Lemmy, or the whole Fediverse, they’re doing it wrong. lol...

I know that recent drama has caused a bit of uneasiness in the community for this platforms future, but I am optimistic for lemmy. It might be helpful to look to mastodon to learn how to move forward.

I was never extremely active on Mastodon until recently but I followed it’s development relatively closely from its infancy.

Lemmy.world deleting posts with archive links and posts questioning the decision.

Lemmy.world has somehow decided to become to extreme defenders of “copyright” and decided they will now delete posts that contain archive links in an absurd move that not even corporate websites like Reddit do. Archive links provide a service to provide access to an article long after it is deleted or changed....

Why is Lemmy World gone now?

Did they give up?

Looking for fediverse platform for a minimal corporate website.

Some friends have websites. I encourage them to do. But they have them only to publish contact info, opening times, and a couple of photos of their business. What would be the best fediverse platform for this? Of course being able to post/toot news every now and then, is also a good feature.

Hypothesis: Insufficient moderation tools lead to instance protectionism, which leads to a decline in the overall discussion quality on Lemmy ( lemmy.world )

Faircamp is a Free Bandcamp Alternative ( wedistribute.org )

There’s a really cool open source alternative to Bandcamp that just came out. With some questions raised about Bandcamp’s future, some musicians in the Fediverse are leaning into the new platform as a different approach to selling their music....

If this ActivityPub-fueled change takes off, it will break every social network into a thousand pieces ( www.theverge.com )

What happened to Lemmy ML? It had disappeared from my list and I had to log in again.

Did I get punished for saying something wrong? Did it get an update?
