Maven Imported 1.12 Million Fediverse Posts ( wedistribute.org )
Maven, a new social network backed by OpenAI's Sam Altman, found itself in a controversy today when it imported a huge amount of posts and profiles from the Fediverse, and then ran AI analysis to alter the content.

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....
Already 61 servers updated to Lemmy 0.19.5! ( fedidb.org )

"Moderation tools are nonexistent on here. It also eats up storage like crazy [...] The software is downright frustrating to work with" - Can any other instance admins relate to this?
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:...

Video playback in mastodon mobile app ( lemmy.world )
I mocked up a better workflow for video in a mastodon mobile app. I'm not a developer, just a mobile user who wants to stay in their fedi app of choice (currently Moshidon) while enjoying multimedia content and not get booted out to a web browser every time I want to watch a video or listen to a podcast. I still have no idea how...

Mastodon handles lemmy communities a bit strangely, doesn't it?
I know that communities don't translate well to Mastodon, I just find it a little odd how it seems to be a firehose of all comments in a community when viewed in Mastodon.

Is Lemmy.ml missing from the fediverse explorer?
I was browsing the fediverse explorer and did not find lemmy.ml in the instances list.
How does Lemmy (Mander in particular) sort "hot" and "active" posts?
Sorry if this seems like a silly question but I have noticed over the last few months my feed(?) has started to act odd....
I just had an idea that people smarter than me have probably had long before I heard of Lemmy.....but I don't see it implemented, so I'm sharing it anyways!!!
Ok, so one of the bigger problems I see on Lemmy is the fact that I subscribe to dozens of different communities, but my feed is always the same. News news news technology technology technology....

I'm Building Habitat ( carlnewton.github.io )
I posted a few months ago asking if there would be any desire for such a social platform, on which I had a lot of wonderful feedback from you guys. So I thought I'd write this post to let anyone that's interested know that it is being built, and you're welcome to lend a hand!

Why haven't we figured out monetisation for peertube?
The only real attempt at monetisation that I've seen is https://beetoons.tv/, but they use their own crypto - making it like Odysee. Why is that?...
