Funciona, pero no del todo si sigue igual que el año pasado. Nosotros creamos grupos/comunidades en #Kbin (@detun3d) y #Lemmy (@detun3d). Hicimos otra para organizar partidas en juegos abandonados como hicimos en Reddit (@raidstream) pero las dos primeras quizá te sirvan mejor para experimentar y ver si te sirve o prefieres esperar a los grupos de #Pixelfed.
Voir que #lemmy utilise une crate (bibliothèque logicielle pour le langage rust) qui s'appelle i-love-jesus
Allez vois la crate en question, voir un badge "made with freedom from porn"
Voir que c'est un vrai truc apparemment https://madewithfreedomfromporn.dullbananas.com/
Wtf
PS: le wtf est plus lié au nom du paquet et aux découvertes subséquentes. Pas à la démarche elle même .
the way a #Lemmy community just shows up as boosts of all posts and replies to them is just not a great way to represent them here, I believe there are multiple ways this experience could be improved from either side. Already somewhat better with platforms/clients that always show the parent post that is being replied to
in order to post (a reply) to a Lemmy community from #Mastodon (etc.) you need to know you have to mention the community by name which doesn't happen automatically
for a top-level post in to a community there are formatting rules like making the first line of the content the title
Lemmy content discoverability is poor on Mastodon because hashtags aren't really a thing for it
Not all of these have to be fixed to make federation useful and to me it doesn't seem like the biggest issues are insurmountable at all... do you have others in mind or have reasons why these cannot be improved?
So I wanted to post a question about a #math problem, and I wanted to reach the widest possible math community on the #Fediverse. Aside from using the correct tag, my first thought was to find a #Lemmy or #kbin community/magazine to cc in the post. And … there isn't one. There's many. Just from a quick search I found https://lemmy.ml/c/mathematics https://lemmy.ml/c/math https://kbin.social/m/math
so now the question becomes … should I cross post to all of them? Or is that poor form?

SCORPIONS: JAMES KOTTAK 'Was A Fantastic Person'
During an appearance on the April 12 episode of SiriusXM's "Trunk Nation With Eddie Trunk", SCORPIONS guitarist Rudolf Schenker commented on the recent passing of the band's longtime drummer James Kottak.
Tbh I think the #Threadiverse like #Lemmy and #kbin would make a lot more sense if they were simply frontends and perhaps a backend too but just for the forums themselves. IOW, no accounts live in Lemmy or kbin, all users post from their preferred #fediverse account instead.
Sure you can already technically do that from your #Mastodon or #Misskey or whatever fedi you're in, but that means using whatever app you're on right now, which almost certainly means it's not a #linkaggregator UI. Not ideal at all.
If I had any good programming skills I'd make it so that the link aggregator is merely a client that uses the Mastodon (with #Pleroma extensions too) and Misskey APIs, treat (almost) all #ActivityPub actors as their own forums or subs, and each post would be a boost from said actor. Users authenticate from their preferred fedi account. Voting would be tallied by few special actors, which internally receive votes via direct messages (the app will make this transparent, but this also means you can technically vote without the app if you know the exact command), which will effectively make votes secret to non-admins like in #Reddit. Users can also choose which vote counters they want to rely from.
This would make the fediverse-powered link aggregator very flexible and minimal, imo. It may look janky but that's the general idea I have. :seija_coffee:
As far as I can see, Perma Computing community is too focused on the artistic aspect of computing. Which hardly covers the most energy intensive, ubiquitous parts of the computing world.
Unless the conversation is taken to tackle higher impact fields, the output of the community is more like the conceptual fashion shows:
a vanity demonstration. A limited proof of concept.
To make clear at the start: I do not intend to denigrate anyone with this post, or anyone's efforts. I have a genuine question which has puzzled me since I first went off to explore Lemmy and Pixelfed.
What purpose do people think that they serve in the Fediverse?
When I first asked, people told me that Lemmy served as an alternative to Reddit and indeed lemmy.world describes itself as "the World's Internet Frontpage". But Reddit exists solely because of the sheer amount of users it houses. Reddit stands as the poster child for user-generated content whereas lemmy.world has less than 8K users a day.
Pixelfed has a similar very-poor-cousin relationship to Instagram. If you have a keen desire for the world to see your images then Instagram will scratch that itch much better than Pixelfed. Posting your images here might also attract more attention, since the pool of possible viewers seems much, much larger.
The biggest group I found on Lemmy? Mastodon.lemmy.world ! I found several posts there like this: "[mastodon] is like making an entire post out of a throwaway comment. That's what I saw on mastodon, didn't choose to participate." At the very least this serves to demonstrate that different people have wildly different experiences on Mastodon because that bears no relationship to my experiences.
In the world of Big Tech people start new social media because they think they see a gap in a market, or a way of splitting off some users of a current platform into their all-new shiny silo. Here, though, everything can live alongside everything else, hence my question: what functions do Lemmy, Pixelfed, and others serve that Mastodon doesn't?
I think I do understand the function of some projects like Bookwyrm or Funkwhale. They have very specific goals: much more specific than "sharing media" or "discussing in threads", for example, both of which can happen in Mastodon. Their design highlights these differences.
I understand that I could well have missed the point completely here, and hence my question. I joined Lemmy and Pixelfed wanting to participate but the level of traffic seemed too low to generate the interaction I had hoped for. Did I look in the wrong places, or did I fail to notice the action, or did I look too early? (When I first joined Mastodon it seemed empty. Now it certainly doesn't.)
Let me give a concrete example. I have a fifteen year project for which I take a single photo every day. Should I post it here or on Pixelfed? What difference would it make? Does it matter?
And finally, as part of looking into Lemmy I explored a lot of apps. If you like Ice Cubes for Mastodon and want to explore Lemmy then I recommend Artic.
i would like to use #lemmy as a federated online tree with different communities forming the branches but it's hard to take seriously when the userbase turns it into reddit 2.0 with literal crossposting from r/gaming; there are even communities using the same nomenclature as their reddit counterparts ("mildlyinfuriating," "nottheonion," etc). lemmy has appropriated the cancer-culture that it was created to avoid.
#FOSS -Community: Infos zu technischen Problemen bei feddit.de 💻
Seit etwa einer Woche ist leider die Homepage von #feddit und damit auch die Community-Seite feddit.de/c/foss_de nicht direkt erreichbar. Das betrifft allerdings "nur" die Homepage bzw. das Webinterface von #feddit , also die Seite feddit.de
Die Föderation funktioniert aber und die Posts von/ an die Community erreichen trotzdem alle, die die Community (von Mastodon, Friendica, Akkoma usw. oder einer anderen Lemmy-Instanz aus) abonniert haben. Nur die feddit-User selbst werden ggf. weniger erreicht, sofern sie nur über feddit.de eingeloggt sind. Über diverse Lemmy-Apps oder alternative Frontends (bspw. alexandrite.app oder Quiblr ) funktioniert es dagegen.
Ihr könnt also weiterhin gerne Infos oder Fragen mit #FOSS#OpenSource -Bezug an die Community schicken. Ich hoffe, die Probleme können bald behoben werden, ich informiere Euch, wenn es was Neues gibt!
@caos Kann ich bestaetigen. Es kommt nur "Server error". Bitte mal in das error_log des Webservers gucken, ob Fehlermeldungen kommen. Falls nein, dann bitte den Log-Level auf WARNING mindestens erhoehen (ich kenne mich aber nicht mit #Lemmy aus).
its an LEMMY instance..a #Fediverse version of #Reddit
you can answer to it from any mastodon instance you are on and participate in the discussion !😉 👍
Stworzyłem społeczność na instancji #lemmy szmer.info dla mojego regionu, czyli #wloclawek oraz całego powiatu włocławskiego. Będę tam robił częste wrzutki najważniejszych newsów z regionu, w tym także dla gmin powiatu włocławskiego, żeby wszystko było w jednym miejscu jako lepsza alternatywa dla Google News i podobnych. Jak ktoś jest zainteresowany zaobserwowaniem tego, to zapraszam: https://szmer.info/c/wloclawek
Hey everyone just FYI you can post to Kbin and Lemmy from Mastodon and other Fediverse Micro-blogging platforms by having one line of your post at the top be the title and putting a mention to the specific community's handle in your post, works best if the mention is below the title. Also you can even attach images and they will appear in the post as an image (multiple images don't work as well sadly).
You can find communities to post in on lemmyverse.net/communities
Here's an example of the format that works best, even for non-glitch instances:
<br></br>[Post title text]<br></br><br></br>*(separate title and body with blank space)<br></br><br></br>[Post body text]<br></br><br></br>[Community's handle mention]<br></br><br></br>
I think we should slightly rethink how login works on most Fediverse apps (Mastodon, Lemmy, but not only)
A while ago I posted a thread back on the...
Lemmy.World federation is on the fritz again
/c/news@lemmy.world is the second biggest community on Lemmy.World and yet on /0, there is nothing newer than two days....
Do any of you meditate? (sh.itjust.works)
