fediverse

I have been curious of this one since it’s a feature that mastodon has, and while I understand with FOSS software anyone can disable that, but usually people don’t and if I knew they were doing that I would defederate them.

Just a little rant. When I first visited Lemmy Sites a couple of months ago it felt empty. Besides the really mainstream community pretty much everything else just felt empty....

i have no problems accessing firefish and pixelfed using other browsers (duckduckgo and firefox) but i cant access the same servers using safari....

Are there any paid services for either Lemmy or Mastodon? Something where, given it is a subscription service, you would expect them to stick around long-term?

Communities on different instances about the same topic should have the option to essentially federate so a post on one appears on all of them and opening any of them shows you the comments from all of them. This way when lemmy.world is down its not a big deal because posting to any news community federates to all of the...

Is it possible to one day replace the privacy nightmare of Amazon with a decentralized merchant network? All I really use Amazon for these day is aggregate customer reviews by query, then buy the items as direct as possible. Why can’t respectable tools to this instead? I understand the cost, but could the tech be adopted?

I’m currently using Memmy for Lemmy, Mammoth and Ice Cubes for Mastodon, and the official Pixelfed beta....

I’m wanting to ditch Strava for something selfhostable that also has ActivityPub support. Is there such a thing?

I’ll be scrolling through lemmy world and occasionally I’ll see comments where a word in them has been replaced with removed. Usually from context it’s early a swear word, normal stuff not slurs....

Is there such a thing as an application that attempts to talk with the various ActivityPub-implementing tools using their own implementation of ActivityPub?...

Recently I've dove a little deeper into the Fediverse. I began with Mastodon like many others and I'm ready to move on. Mastodon as a software in comparison to similar services in the Fediverse like Calckey/Firefish, Friendica, Misskey, etc. just isn't as good and the only thing it has going for it is an established user base...

A blog post I made about my experience on Kbin, what I like about it, and some of the challenges I still face in using it. Any feedback would be appreciated as someone who is still new to blogging. Thanks.

Similar to Mastodon’s spikes last year, it seems. Anyways, there is data to think about. Source

I’ve made an open source tool for scheduling posts to Lemmy, you can find it at schedule.lemmings.world. It can be used by users from any instance and it can be self-hosted if you wish so!...

Seems like they are under attack again, will those people never stop? I feel sorry for the admin team.

Recently cult of the dead cow came out with veilid, a secure decentralised way of sending encrypted information and i think this could be a huge asset to lemmy. Cult of the dead cow even mentions mastadon by name as they say this is the type of application it was designed for. If veilidchat takes off then i really hope the devs...

I want to know how to use the Antenna feature of Firefish to customize my feed and see more relevant content based on the topics I like, how to follow lemmy communities, how to post on lemmy and vote posts/comments on lemmy from there. Is there a documentation where I can learn about that?

Hi, looking to move away from lemmy.world. not that my experience is not going well, it’s just that in the last 2 months I’ve come to find what I want to see in the instance I’m part of. I simply want to check before making my choice information on defederation. I haven’t pirated anything in the last few years, but...

I would like to be able to choose how much I see of the topics I like. What platform offers something similar to Bluesky customizable feeds but in the fediverse?

Quick, pros and cons

i use it for pixelfed
