What would your ideal social media platform look like?

Fediverse uptime badge
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....
Will the Fediverse reach Mainstream in 2024?
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.

What would be your server's entry to the Fediverse Songcontest 2023 (FSC)
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...

What happens if a user of an unfederated instance posts in a federated instance to me?
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?

What should I name my Firefish instance
I run a server calckey.world , which used to be CalcKey, but the software was re-branded to Firefish. Unfortunately, firefish.world is taken. What domain should I use for my new Firefish instance? Preferably a .world domain....
Now that we're finally out of reddit, can we finally get different tag for NSFW and NSFL?
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?

So many great posts containing Lemmy resources (ex. apps, communities) are now out of date. Instead, how about we make a repository to pull from?
EDIT: Might be able to get this set up. Hang tight!...
The Fediverse needs its own transformative narrative
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....
Will Lemmy soon drive Innovation in the Fediverse?
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...
A little rant about lemmy.ml
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...
