I recently made a new account on lemmy.blahaj.zone, because I’ve been harassed and doxxed on my old account and I wanted a fresh start with a more lighthearted online identity that I could be more open about my gender identity on. I’d heard blahaj zone was good for trans people, so I made my account there. And yeah,...

I continue to be squeezed by both sides of the threads situation. I am operating on the premise that people who think I’m a terrible person and this is a terrible instance for allowing any interaction with threads have left and/or blocked, those remaining seem to want to either have nothing to do with threads at all and are...

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

This was originally built to explain Meta's P92 to some people, and I slightly edited it to make it a bit more general. It starts with Twitter, then Mastodon, then the Fediverse as a whole in what I hope is an intuitive manner, and requires no "tech literacy" outside of knowing what Twitter and Facebook are like.

This blog post by Ploum, who was part of the original XMPP efforts long ago, describes how Google killed one great federated service, which shows why the Fediverse must not give Meta the chance

Alovoa looking for contributors! Can you help us implement decentralization for open source dating app?...

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.

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....

This is an admin’s guide for getting set up with the Fediverse from your WordPress, along with some tips on configuration options so that people can get the most out of it.

Since lemmy.world is having trouble for the second time in three days, I decided to switch back over to my lemmy.ml account. Unfortunately I don’t have all of my communities back over here in my .ml account, and it took me over an hour to manually subscribe to the ones I had over on my .world account....

I was recently inspired by this post made by @mookulator to get the subscription statistics for a list of Lemmy instances....

As we all know there’s surge of LLM-powered comments, ranged from chatgpt-esque style to downright rude comments infesting reddit. It makes the place from unpleasant to extraunpleasant place. The problem I’m worried the most is if they’re starting to invade lemmy and friends. Any development to combat this? Like maybe akin...

I just read up on it and it seems good, at least in theory. How does it compare to Lemmy, would you say?

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....
