Can anyone tell me how to follow a #Lemmy instance like Lemmy.ml from within #IceCubesApp ? Can you post/comment from a Mast account without a Lemmy account?
I need to stop giving Reddit any views and clicks.
Sure, I primarily use #Mastodon [albeit not the mastodon dot social instance or anything like it], but I still love things like #pixelfed and #lemmy quite a lot.
If you like the more concise and peaceful conversations this side of the web, you should ABSOLUTELY give these other options a look! #fediverse#feditips#fedi23
Learned a cool thing about the interaction between #Lemmy and Mastodon. You can follow a Lemmy community on Mastodon and reply to posts and comments with your Mastodon account. Other replies in the community also get boosted by the community account.
I'm trying to move as much of my online activity as possible to the #Fediverse, mostly because the internet sucks now, but also because I'm excited at the idea of users forming communities and sites of resistance on their own terms, free of capitalist meddling and surveillance. #enshittification#redditapi
With all of these #reddit down fall news someone should startup a proper #lemmy instance.
Browsing around the instance list is the saddest thing I've witnessed on Fediverse. The #1 instance is literally discussing how to bring the Soviet Union back lol
The @privacyguides subreddit is dipping their toes into the fediverse now that reddit is going to shit. They are now hosting a @LemmyDev instance on https://lemmy.one/ so I decided to join it.
Lemmy is a federated alternative to reddit so it would work similarly in that you can follow other subs even on different websites. (even on mastodon maybe: @privacyguides)
You can comment on posts just using your mastodon account at the very least: https://lemmy.one/c/privacyguides
The instance has restricted creation new subs but they are open to letting other open up if you want to join: https://lemmy.one/post/41
I'm legit sad about the news out of #Reddit surrounding their API pricing. @christianselig has built the only interface for Reddit that a lot of users will ever willingly use. I hope a fedi alternative (I’ve seen posts about #lemmy, need to check it out) can scale up fast enough, the way Mastodon did, to fill that void for folks.
@gracjan@fishcharlie@christianselig I recently started using #Kbin on first interaction it seems better than #lemmy, certainly has better integration with other Fedi group platforms, like Friendica Forums, Lemmy communities, Gup.pe groups, etc.in addition to their native "Magazines" @realcaseyrollins
I just had a bit of a look at kbin.social and I have to say, kbin looks really impressive!
If you've never heard of kbin, it's a fediverse platform specifically focusing on groups. Broadly speaking, similar to lemmy, the goal is to create a fediverse take on the reddit experience. However, kbin also integrates fediverse groups like gup.pe, chirp and friendica groups, and that is a killer feature as far as I'm concerned!
We've been running a lemmy instance for a few months now, but it might be time to look at spinning up our own kbin instance too!

Are Lemmy and Kbin ready?...
