[Back online] Has anyone defederated your instance? Introducing Defederation Investigator (defed.xyz)
EDIT 3: All good now, the DNS has done its thing and defed.xyz is fully operational! Once again, thank you all for having checked out my tool, it means a lot to me....
Lemmy.ml ~~is down right now~~ (back online, was unreachable for about 6 hours) (isitdownorjust.me)
lemmy.world had a DDOS in the past 24 hours, Lemmy.ml was showing problem, but now it is entirely unreachable. lemmy.world was showing “Error!” page (server still reachable), but that seems to have only lasted for a hour or so.
Bookwyrm - A Goodreads alternative that is part of the fediverse (github.com)
Goodreads is perhaps the best example of enshittification imo. It’s only good now as a way to track your reading lists....
Soon 80000 active per day. Help by inviting friends to lemmy :) (lemmy.myserv.one)
Dont forget to do your part by telling other people not on lemmy to try it. Its content has improved a lot so ask them to try it again if they didnt find communities they liked before. It will help the continued growth :)

FBI Seizure of Mastodon Server is a Wakeup Call to Fediverse Users and Hosts to Protect their Users (www.eff.org)

What do you think is the best solution to having the same named communities on different instances? (kbin.social)
We should implement this as whenever I wish to browse (for example) [email protected] I have to go to there, and whenever I wish to browse [email protected] I have to go there. Would it be possible to implement it in kbin/lemmy's code to make it easier to browse all?
Want to move on from Mastodon, but so confused on what platform to choose (kbin.social)
Recently I've dove a little deeper into the Fediverse. I began with Mastodon like many others and I'm ready to move on.

Lots of small improvements across the user experience, and opt-in search, make this an important release.
Why can't we have a unified API across the fediverse to use in mobile apps? (kbin.social)
Is there a reason why all the services, that use the ActivityPub protocol don't have a unified API?...

Fediverser Portal: update to my fediverser project, people now can migrate away from reddit by signing up to the mirror instance directly. (portal.alien.top)
So, I know that my project fediverser has received quite a bit of criticism and its flagship instance alien.top has been quite controversial, but I hope that this update will help people understand the whole project better, which is more than “just yet-another repost bot”....
