Beehaw is also down, but they elected to do it ( hachyderm.io )

Lionir elected to prevent any potential data leaks by shutting down Beehaw until the issues lemmy.world and lemmy.blahaj.zone are identified and resolved

Fediverse uptime badge

I’ve wanted a badge that shows the instance uptime and couldn’t find any, so I created one. It’s available at uptime.lemmings.world/{your-domain}.svg and gets its data from fediverse.observer....

Just passing on a tip from FediTips I didn’t know about. Using the format...

What's the word for realizing to have been sucked into the Fediverse and actually forgotten that you are using the Fediverse? Fedi-Immersion-Shock?

The last couple of days I experienced something that I never felt since I’ve been using Fediverse services. For the first time since half a year ago, I felt like actually being sucked into the Fediverse. I only realized it a couple of days later that I hadn’t looked into Twitter and that’s the crucial point: didn’t even...

Why so many POST requests?

I’ve been running my self-hosted one user Pleroma (like Mastodon) instance. When I discovered Lemmy I started following some communities from it and also posted some comments....

What does this mean? ( lemmy.ml )

Peer-bay? ( lemm.ee )

Possibly a dumb question, but is there, or could one of the extra smart people here build, a federated marketplace to allow for direct buying and selling without the middle-man enshittification of ebay, reverb, and the like?

Threads Hypothetical stage 2

How do you feel about meta hypothetically pressing the phase 2 button, which updates threads to have a reddit-like mode that federates and uses lemmy content as free seed content?...

I just got an email from Mastadon about Threads federating. I closed my Mastadon account about 5 minutes after joining. ( i.imgur.com )

I received an email about threads and Mastadon a bit ago. The thing is I deleted my Mastadon account a hot minute after I created it. The email has no way to unsubscribe from it https://i.imgur.com/dyrNcAB.png...

Meta's Threads App Leaks, Indicates July 6th Launch ( wedistribute.org )

An Android app for Meta’s federated Twitter competitor was accidentally leaked, and people are already datamining it for clues.

Is there an instance that has migrated all Reddit content?

I recently came across a torrent that seems to be an archive of Reddit. It got me thinking if it would be possible to make it locally browsable. However, I also considered the possibility that someone might have already addressed this by creating a public Lemmy instance, enabling the content to be accessible from any federated...

Flipboard Begins to Federate ( flipboard.medium.com )

Pixelfed now also supports WebP2P videos like Peertube ( mastodon.social )

Very nice improvement and I hope more fediverse software starts supporting this. tl;dr popular videos are also uploaded by the viewers, thus lowering the server load, similar to Bittorrent, but all in the browser.
