There should be a universal community search engine for the Fediverse where you type in a community description or keyword and the service returns a list of all similar communities across all of the instances. It should be called Feddle (the Fediverse Google.)
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....
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 :)
I often browse /all, come across a post that looks interesting but I have no clue what’s it about, so I check the sidebar - and all I find is “An unofficial Lemmy community for X”, " A place to discuss everything about X", or the best kind, “A continuation of r/X from Reddit”....
Idea: if you mod a community on a lemmy.somewhere you should be able to migrate it to lemmy.elsewhere which would include all post & comment links being forwarded and subbed users having their subscription updated to reflect the new location....
I am an old internet user. One of the things that used to drive me nuts was when all these corporate products like Reddit, Twitter, Facebook, Google+, etc. would change their entire UIs on a whim without any user feedback.

Obviously Lemmy, Mastodon, Pixelfed, etc. are federated decentralized equivalent to their centralized counterparts, but what is the counterpart in the fediverse to TikTok? It is a dominant app for millions of people, and as far as I can tell the closest thing is Peertube, but isn’t that more of a YouTube equivalent? Does it...
This may be an unpopular opinion, but I would rather see the most upvoted comments at the top. I have my feeds sorted by Top Day so I see something different every day....
The following screenshot is a composite. The popups for the last two days are inserted top left and top right. I also copied the Y-axis description from left to right....
Hey so i know this is a weird question but… does anyone has the same issue of “vanishing comments”? every few times i write a comment, it sends the comment… and boom its gone like it never existed. it doesn’t gives me any error message, its just gone forever....
I thought maybe when I click on the communities page on Lemmy.world, that I could then sort the list of communities/magazines/servers by clicking on the subscribers column and it would sort the list by that column....
Im wondering what ways people advertise/grow their lemmy instances. I recently just created mine and would like to put it out there as one of the options. How did you discover your instance and what drew you to it?
