I feel like we need to talk about Lemmy's massive tankie censorship problem. A lot of popular lemmy communities are hosted on lemmy.ml. It's been well known for a while that the admins/mods of that instance have, let's say, rather extremist and onesided political views. In short, they're what's colloquially referred to as...

I will probably be harassed for this but I feel like I need to act....
Hi all,...
For all your boycotting needs. I'm sure there's some mods caught in lemmy.ml's top 10 that are perfectly upstanding and reasonable people, my condolences for the cross-fire....

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.......

Woo-hoo today's my cake-day on Lemmy.world.. actually I'm the first here but many will follow the next days. Happy cake day to you all!
I've introduced two of my friends (not into tech) to Lemmy. Since they're not into tech this is their first web forum....
A year ago today I made my Lemmy account...

I keep seeing the same names popping up. I think it's rather cute!
This is a thought I had mostly to do with Lemmy but I feel likes it's relevant elsewhere in Fediverse....
How is the size of Lemmy's userbase changing? Is it growing or shrinking? How diverse is it? What do the current trendlines look like as we approach a year since Rexxit?...
For instance, this one (link to a post to !memes): https://reddthat.com/post/20260613...
A few of the posts from the last few days, you can search the post link in your search bar to see it from your instance...
This feature is a lifesaver for fediverse. It allows you to see from a general perspective, reduces confusion and creates a more organized forum environment. Thank you to everyone who has already used this feature and I highly recommend everyone to use it....
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.
I did a search from shitjustworks for "reddit die" and did not find https://lemmy.world/c/watchredditdie so I made https://sh.itjust.works/c/watchredditdie (unnecessarily). This should really not happen. When someone makes a community there should be a "ping" sent out to notify all other federated instances....
After a year online the free speech-focused instance 'Burggit' is shutting down. Among other motivations, the admins point to grievances with the Lemmy software as one of the main reasons for shutting down the instance. In a first post asking about migrating to Sharkey, one of the admins states:...
Harry Potter Fandoms will be a part of the Fediverse one way or the other. It’s better to shape this development rather than being overwhelmed by it....
Do you think that the fediverse has something to gain with the enshitfication of discord? Are there voice chat programs in the fediverse that can benefit from it?
