fediverse

Hello folks...

This is going to be a short and sweet little history of Reddit. Reddit was founded in 2005....

I get the idea of instances, like you can make your own and this is good for privacy. But some lemmy instances are much more popular and this in fact makes it another Reddit. If there are separate instances for niche topics, why not make it another community inside a larger instance?

I’ve been a fan of Memmy for the most part, but post Apollo i’ve still been out of sorts with any platform. I really miss marking-read once you scroll past posts on my phone....

As the question states. I have the skiils and know how to setup a new instsnce and from looking through the documentation its relatively straight forward. Im just wondering would it actually help the fediverse and lemmy as a whole? There seems to already be plenty of instances to choose from. What are your guys thoughts?

What I know so far:...

Why am I signed out every time I open this? Why can I hardly post anything anywhere? It’s like a dice roll.

With all the talk about expensive clients, how to fund the developers and big instances not managing to keep up with the influx of users, I’d like to tell you about my work on Communick and what I am proposing as an alternative model for a sustainable growth of the Fediverse....

I’ve been telling a lot of people about it, but everyone’s a skeptic. I’ve heard a lot of people saying that they’re just going to wait to see which Reddit clone comes out on top before switching. Most of them haven’t heard of the other parts of the fediverse like mastodon. I’d like to leave fb/instagram, but like...

Do they get adopted by other instances? Are they still accessible from other instances? Can you still post on them from another instance?...

I’ve noticed we have bots copy pasting Reddit submissions. Is there a method to block them all?...

So, Lemmy is sometime missing content. I don’t regret switching from Reddit to Lemmy but, expecially for niche communities, the content isn’t always here....

Here’s the thing. I’m a mod for a small-time community for a niche interest, !castles I’m also on Mastodon, and was before my Reddit exodus. I follow #castles as well as a few other related topics on Matsodon, so I get quality toots, such as this: mastodon.scot/, that I wish I could just crosspost over to my community....

I found one post from 12 hours ago that describes the problem: lemmy.ml/post/2650814 - but that’s all I’ve seen. Content is way down on lemmy.ml with nothing coming in from .world...

Hi guys. This is not going to be a long post and I will briefly explain why I didn’t like Lemmy and going straight back to Reddit....

Hello!...

EDIT: Might be able to get this set up. Hang tight!...

I thought about this already for a while and with Lemmy and Mastodon the opensource community has a place to really try itself out and coordinate. Then even things like open-source planning-systems (like at Amazon) and AIs are possible....

This includes every Lemmy android app that exists (atleast to my knowledge)...

I’m using Memmy but trying to read comments in my notifications crashes the app half the time and seems like it’s not getting updates....

Like two text fields, with the server/instance field autofilling:...
