I often get bored of the Fediverse, but I'm doing my best to stay here.
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…...
What are some of the more novel forms of fediverse software?
By novel I mean not emulating an existing popular platform, e.g. Lemmy-Reddit, Mastodon-Twitter, etc.
what's your favorite thing about Lemmy?
Unmoderated and now extremely delayed federation - is it time to move?
First, I think Ernest has done a fantastic job and I've been rooting for him this whole time. But it's becoming clear it's all too much for him without the support of a larger team....
So blimey - what happened there?
Kbin seemed tio take a nice long sleep there. I almost assumed it had fallen over for good. I Really hate the generic, undated 'over the next few days we are working on servers' mesesage.
What's going on with kbin.social?
It’s been inaccessible for roughly 24hrs right now and I’m having a hard time finding any group talking about it. Was there a change recently, or some kind of an explanation posted?
What Meta’s Fediverse Plans Mean for Threads Users (www.wired.com)
Meta is treading carefully, doing a phased implementation while continuing conversations with Fediverse leaders. This will give the company more time to iron out some of the integration kinks. “Do we adapt the protocol to be able to support this?” Lambert asks. “Or do we try to do some kind of interesting, unique...
Lemmy Needs to Fix Its Community Separation Problem (popcar.bearblog.dev)
I made a blog post on my biggest issue in Lemmy and the proposed solutions for it. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
I think that it would be good to mirror the Lemmy repositories to a FOSS alternative (e.g. Codeberg)
Currently, the Lemmy Project only uses Github for its repositories related to Lemmy’s development (e.g. Lemmy, Lemmy-UI). GitHub is a proprietary service, and it is owned by Microsoft. These facts open the door for a myriad of potential issues across the ecosystem, and community. I would like to clarify, though, that I don’t...
Authorized Fetch Circumvented by Alt-Right Developers (wedistribute.org)
Authorized Fetch (also referred to as Secure Mode in Mastodon) was recently circumvented by a stupidly easy solution: just sign your fetch requests with some other domain name.

FMHY (FREEMEDIAHECKYEAH) switching to db0 - Divisions by zero (lemmy.dbzer0.com)
Yo ho ho and a bottle of rum! Crewmates, please join me in a hearty welcome to all FMHY users recently joining our instance....
Why is firefox losing market share? Why don't more people use Firefox?
edited the heading of the question. I think most of us here are reasoning why more people are not using firefox (because it was the initial question), but none of that explains why it’s actively losing marketshare....

Don't you think kbin has really gone downhill since the good old days?
I don't actually think that, but wanted to be the first to complain about it.
Pfft
After two weeks I visited reddit again. Holy shit the misogyny and lack of critical thinking in the comments is something else....
YSK that you can follow peertube channels as if they're communties in lemmy (and presumably kbin)
I was waiting until I saw something show up in my feed to verify and I just saw it....
How the beehaw defederation affects us
ou might have seen that we've been defederated from beehaw.org. I think there's some necessary context to understand what this means to the users on this instance....
iPhone subreddit starting protest early, going dark indefinitely (9to5mac.com)
Reddit refugees, has your favorite sub migrated already?
I, being someone who works with computers, have had some luck with most of my favorite subs being here already....

The time to streamline Lemmy onboaring is now. Let's do it like mastodon did. (blog.joinmastodon.org)
I've seen lots of discussion on reddit of users trying to get others to join Lemmy and the prevailing reply is that it is too difficult to navigate and comprehend. Having to answer multiple questions and wait for manual verification is combersome and is limiting growth at a time when nothing should be standing in Lemmy's way....
