Regardless of the negative aspects, Meta joining the Fediverse will definitely make the numbers of active users explode. This will probably bring the network and its concepts to many people and also a matter of public debate.
The fediverse offers an exciting alternative to centralized social media silos like Twitter and Facebook. As someone passionate about the fediverse, I think a lot about what features would make up my perfect social media platform. I’m curious what ideas other fediverse users have!...
Let’s say I’m from instance A and use a community from instance B. Let’s say another user of instance C, that’s not federated with A but is with B, post in B. Can I see that post?
I like a lot of the communities on that instance, but every once in a while I just get hit with a random wave of toxicity by them for no reason. For example, there was a post asking which communities from Reddit do you wish existed on Lemmy, and I answered honestly saying more car related communities as they are one of my...
For the uninitiated, generally NSFW is for sexual contents and NSFL is for gory contents. People may want to see one but not see the other at any time for any reason. I have seen this feature requested over the years in Reddit but it never happens. Maybe now some instance can finally implement it?
Please post one top-level comment per complaint. Then others can reply with ideas or existing GitHub issues that could address that complaint. This helps identify both common complaints and potential solutions....
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....
Hosted on peertube by the biggest instance in the fediverse, the event of the year takes place on the day of the first big twitter migration and is traditionally kicked off by someone telling a really bad joke and then declaring “let that sink in”. But seriously - Would we be already able to realize this this year? Would be...
In another thread, I read a user’s comment about how the lemmy experience has got progressively worse over the past few months, with a lot more trash content making it to their front page....
A new feature has been added, this one is especially useful for recurring post - it allows you to add the date and/or time of the post to the title....
Over the last decade, people called for a new narrative regarding climate change. One that is less doomerism and more positive. They managed to do that. The same needs to happen for the internet....
Currently lemmy is like the speedboat next to the heavy steam boat of Mastodon etc. While lemmy is still dynamic and flexible and can introduce new features easily without scaring off its established user base, mastodon can not do such experiments so easily. Now, if lemmy gains more momentum in the fediverse and establishes...
Are any of you content creators? Artists? Storytellers? Writers? I believe this is a big part of what’s missing from the Fediverse. Sure there’s work out there but I believe it can be so much better. If any of you are please point us to your work, how we can support you and please be sure to share your work on the Fedi. For...
You guys have been so awesome providing a list of Fedi clients. I will update the list based on you guys feedback. I ask for assistance once again. I want to make a running list of Fediverse projects. There are so many interesting projects that deserve attention and devs that deserve recognition. I will start off with some that...
Hey guys, with all of your help I would like to get a running list of apps for Fediverse platforms. In such a short time we’ve had so many apps develop and they’ve provided some incredible experiences. For those that have been on Fedi for some time, newer and those that will come, these client apps will play major roles in...
I think now is a great time to remind everyone, like sync’s developer, Lemmy’s developers need to be paid too! The amount of time all the devs put into making lemmy exist, in my opinion, should be worth some of your money. If you can afford it, donating to the people who develop lemmy and/or the people keeping your home...
I’m curious as to you guys opinions. It could be Mastodon itself or a Mastodon client. What features would you like to see that are not currently available?

You might find packets of stevia on restaurant tables and store shelves. Stevia can also be found in many other products you eat. If you’re eating products marketed as low calorie, check the ingredients list to see what type of sweetener was used. Currently, there’s no evidence linking stevia to cancer when used in normal...
tl;dr: let’s stop the generic and almost-irrelevant-doom-and-gloom karma-harvesting one-liners that can be copy-pasted between any two articles written in the last century...
I find something like this very interesting. Additionally, I hope that awesome-lemmy-instances will merge this feature since the low number of blocked users and consistent low latency are the two main things I look for when searching for a new instance.
