OpenSource.net welcomes new writers. This site is a good replacement for opensource.com which stopped publishing articles in March when Red Hat laid off most of the community team.
is there a spreadsheet of how much it costs to run a #Mastodon instance based on # of users & activity?
i would like to see numbers from the hundreds to the millions
it would be cooler if we could have that information extended to all the other #fediverse platforms: #Pixelfed#Lemmy#Pleroma and amma gonna throw in #Drupal#OpenSocial in case there's any instances using ActivityPub & federating
(* lazyfedi is my take on the legendary #lazyweb asks from blogging days)
So is Kbin. Both projects use the AGPL license, but Kbin is a PHP/Symfony based solution while Lemmy is primarily a Rust backend with a Typescript front end. If someone is going to run an instance or contribute to the code, they are likely going to choose the stack that they are most familiar with.
With a lot of #Drupal experience, the Kbin code is very approachable for me... but as other commenters have already said... whatever floats your boat.
The Kbin and Lemmy projects aren't competing as much with each other as the ActivityPub driven communities are competing with the walled gardens.
Be patient! We'll get there eventually. (kbin.social)
I see a lot of comments pointing out bugs and saying something along the lines like "they need to fix this ASAP, otherwise... something something"....
