Fediverse

Personally subscribed to 126, and it's steadily growing by 2-4 each week. But curious to how many you are subscribed to too. Feel free to share your favorite community too!...

Does every PeerTube instance store all other instances' content metadata (title, description, comments)? Would federating virtually with YouTube (through a YouTube frontend like Piped) give a too high ammount of data to store on other instances?

I recently finished the episode of The Verge's podcast #Decoder with the interview to Bluesky's CEO and it seems a quite interesting project....

Discoverability in this context meaning the ability to more effectively find public communities/people of interest. Alongside improving this however, respecting people's decisions on whether and how they may be found, if at all.

I will probably be harassed for this but I feel like I need to act....

First, I'm sorry if this is not the right place to discuss this....

I've been off and on with the Fediverse for sometime now. It's a relatively friendly place full of fellow nerds, but with a few caveats.......

After having spent some time on Lemmy and learning of the intricacies of the different Lemmy instances, I think the landing page for the Lemmyverse could do with some streamlining. I remember that back when I joined, the only information I used to decide on an instance to join was the user count, the signup policy and the...

In the months since I deleted my Reddit accounts and joined Lemmy, the lack of user base growth has made it clear that we need some users to stay on Reddit as a means of shepherding more users over on an ongoing basis. Otherwise, Reddit simply got what it wanted: less users who make a fuss about how it manages its platform...

I was trying to post a video but it wouldn't show up as available to upload in Jerboa, is this a per community thing or is it across all of lemmy? It would make sense because videos are inherently a larger file size, if that is the reason

I'm excited to see the new meme browsing interface feature in PieFed. I expected PieFed to be yet another Reddit clone using a different software stack and without any innovation. I believe there's an opportunity to take things a step further by blending the best elements of platforms like Reddit and image boards like Safebooru....

Hi,...

Or is it faster to do it manually? I am subscribed to almost 120 different communities, so would save a few clicks not having to do it manually.

By novel I mean not emulating an existing popular platform, e.g. Lemmy-Reddit, Mastodon-Twitter, etc.

The mods of all the major communities there remove comments criticism Hexbear and usually follow it up with a ban. It's absolutely clear what is happening and it shouldn't be allowed to continue.

An alternative to reviewing games on steam...

If I have the right zoom level to make the text in the feed a sensible size, the font size in the threads is too small to read easily. Correct the zoom level in the thread and the font size in the feed becomes way too large....

Do you people know of any Microbloging platform like Mastodon But with RSS Feed of My home feed like lemmy and peertube?...

After i joined the Fediverse, i deleted my accounts on Reddit, Twitter & Facebook a few days later. Yesterday, i deleted TikTok too and i will delete Instagram more or less soon. I hope some friends will change to the Fedi until then....

In short i just jumped into the whole Mastodon blocking drama and am somewhat disappointed to see it as childish as reddit's power mod drama....

Is it possible to use a hosting service I'm already paying for (strato.nl) and a domain I've already bought to host a Mastodon/Pixelfed instance? All the websites that encourage me to selfhost advertise a new hosting service to me with the price in dollars....

I can set it up . This idea popped into my head after i joined some good foss telegram channels and i personnely think matrix is not there yet also telegram does supports third party apps there are some privacy concerns but i don't think it matters to our use case and it is all speculation but matrix instance hoster could be...

Before the scaled sort was introduced, the hope was that it would provide a solution to surface posts from smaller communities, without being overrun by memes and political posts from larger communities. However, the scaled sort has been ineffective so far, as most posts appear with a single vote, making it practically the same...

I'm trying to find an android mastodon app that can handle links from outside the app and open them in the app. Tusky is not going to implement this feature request and I haven't seen anything from the official app nor Fedilab....

If you are an admin and or instance operator are you protecting yourself legally? A great deal of people have simply spun up instances and treat them like Discord servers and subreddits, but Discord and Reddit are the ones that assume legal liability. Here are some good reads to assist by lawyers and experts that are on the fedi...
