Sqppatr is alright, but I've been a lot happier ever since I switched to Howjeyj Induction Consortium LED Light Honbbyist PC Gamer RGB Unprinted White 背胶 Strip Lights For MicroATX Cases And Custom Builds
And another one here. I'm wrapping my head around all the different servers and trying to connect it all in my head. So on paper I guess I only need to register to a single instance, then somehow can post / read from other communities on beehaw.org right?
Yes I have my account on feddit.de but mostly post to communities of other servers. I also follow/join nearly all communities that I can find on lemmy xD
Yep. For example, I'm on the developer-run Lemmy instance, but I can see and interact with the communities on Beehaw.org just fine.
The main difference is moderation styles (Beehaw has more strict moderation) as well as what they federate with. Beehaw doesn't federate with certain communities, so those communities don't show up when you look at "All".
I think that was so long ago, that many folks think that Reddit is some untouchable entity. They have no idea how huge Digg was and how amazingly fast people left it.
Absolutely insane that they're tanking their 3rd party apps like this. Their 1st party apps is so bad. Big shout out to the (mods? Admin? Owners?) Of beehaw for being being on their game for accepting new users like me quickly today.
Oh look yet another new user! I'm also surprised on how fast I was accepted today.
On-topic: the sad part is that it's a sensible move for their goals (profit maximisation). It's simply cheaper to get rid of better competitors than make your own software better.
Can't maximize profits if enough people jump ship. I dunno if that'll happen though, if this ends up being a Digg moment for the larger Reddit community.
I hope that this becomes a Digg moment, but I don't think that it will - odds are that they already predicted that some users will leave, and the amount of users leaving will be still small enough to make the move profitable.
This is it for me for mobile Reddit. I also cancelled my Gold subscription, and likely will step down as mod for a tiny sub i mod, not gonna give them any more free work. And if (when!) they remove Old Reddit i'll leave the site for good. Too bad Lemmy is still in very early stages (very similar to Reddit in it's first years in fact), or it'd be THE alternative. Hopefully many people will join in.
You're technically correct, but go to any of the various "This is the Fediverse", "Join Fediverse" and the like, and many, many times you won't even see them acknowledge the existence of Lemmy, happened to me when i decided to jump in last month. Compare amounts of people, Mastodon instances can number in the thousands while the best you get here is dozens, maybe low hundreds. Lemmy is tiny, and it's focus on communities isolates it further from the rest of the Fediverse, the federation doesn't help in the slightest, open Lemmy and all you see is the same dozen posts for days, you don't see on Lemmy posts from the rest of Fediverse because they just don't apply. This is fine, lemme emphasize, but it's early stages and it's undeniable.
@jherazob@admin There's also a tinier project called kbin. It's still in a beta, but it seems quite promising. Here's how their seemingly flagship instance looks like.
Plus maybe it's just me but when I open lemmy, I don't want to see the rest of the fediverse. Lemmy serves a very different purpose from mastodon or plemora.
It's one thing I never understood about the fediverse. These platforms are separate on the normal web for a reason.
@morrowind Yep. I really like the fact that even though the fediverse can interact with lemmy content, the default view within lemmy is still only groups content and not the whole fediverse
Actually more than I would have guessed. Still not "enormous" by any reasonable definition. I don't think the Fediverse as a whole is ever going to leave the tiny niche if currently occupies without acknowledging said niche, and it really needs to get past the niche to replace reddit as the "front page(s) of the internet".
I'm of mixed mind on this. I'm not sure we've really figured out how to scale beehaw or if it even can be scaled. I can't imagine a smaller community like this actually adhering to it's principles at a size of even 1/1000th of Reddit.
While I greatly appreciate the influx of users and hope it helps to sustain this environment with lots of wonderful content, I also worry about decisions we may need to make in the future to ensure it stays a nice place. The more attention and the more mainstream it becomes, the more difficult it becomes to keep things civil. People like to misbehave on the Internet and part of the reason places like this work is people being upset with this paradigm, but that can only be successful if it's mostly people upset with the paradigm registering and not the people who are out there being mean to others.
I agree that, past a certain size, it becomes harder to enforce behaviour. However that's where I think that the nature of the Fediverse helps a lot.
As long as maintenance of the userbase is done diligently, and no Eternal September changes the nature of the core userbase, people who want a rougher community will eventually migrate to their own instances. It's hard to do this in Reddit, but perfectly doable in the Fediverse, and the migrating users don't even need to break ties with Beehaw.
So in effect, the problem (people wanting to behave in a way not allowed by the community) solves itself. I think that this gives Beehaw way more room to scale than it looks like.
Ich bleib hier, hab meinen account dort bloß noch, um ein paar moderierte Communities anständig zu übergeben. Ordnung muss sein, auch wenn Spez das nicht verdient hat.
Well meine zwei Cent: finde ich nicht gut das sie das machen und zeigen nur dem Team von Reddit "wer genug Geld und Atem hat bekommt schon was er will"
Schade eigentlich. Ich finde feddit.de gleich gut wie old.reddit.com und jerboa als App hat zwar noch Aufholbedarf, aber besser Bedingungen als die App-Entwickler bei reddit.
Ich bleibe primär hier und hoffe, dass viele aus der Community umziehen.
Sehe ich auch so. Mit dem Kopf bin ich bereits zu feddit umgezogen, nur der Körper schielt noch ein wenig zu reddit... Aber Beiträge werde ich dort nicht mehr schreiben.
