Fediverse

Alexandrite is slick, gorgeous, and brings a lot to the Lemmy experience. I highly recommend giving it a try.

When Meta launched their new Twitter competitor Threads on July 5, they said that it would be compatible with the ActivityPub protocol, Mastodon, and all the other decentralized social networks in the fediverse "soon"....

Crossposted this in case of takedown. Hope this isn't breaking the rules....

We have bookwyrm.social, which does an excellent job at replacing the need for goodreads (which is owned by Amazon). But is there an alternative to imdb.com?

FYI!!! In case you start getting re-directed to porn sites....

The best part of the fediverse is that anyone can run their own server. The downside of this is that anyone can easily create hordes of fake accounts, as I will now demonstrate....

I really want to nip threads in the bud. Besides blocking threads.net itself, defederate from any instances that do not. This is blatantly an EEE strategy and a united front is the only way to save what have been accomplished....

Federated Code forges have been an ongoing development for some time, but their introduction could provide a way to connect many different projects and organizations across the web, using the ActivityPub-based ForgeFed spec.

An Android app for Meta's federated Twitter competitor was accidentally leaked, and people are already datamining it for clues.

Can we all stop the in-fighting for a minute and realise how awesome the platform we are on is?...

Fediverse game jams have been a thing for a while, but this one seems to have a decent amount of people interested in joining in. It could be a really fun way for a lot of creatives and programmers in the fediverse to work together and build fun experiences that reflect on themes of our shared space.

At the moment the internet is flawed, do you think the fediverse is the solution?

My experience with the Fediverse has only been through Mastodon, through which I struggled to find a community I really gelled with. Either it was supper overwhelming with meme posts or NSFW, or it was too chill to the point of nothing. Or, it was hyperfocused like FOSS/Linux and became uninteresting after awhile. May try again,...

I am wondering about the different fediverse software options and what would be best for various usecases....

Email is already nicely federated, but I think it's time for a change. Services like protonmail claim to offer encryption between users, but you can't host your own instance. It would be awesome if there was a spec somewhere for a federated email service that defines...

I love the Fediverse and I love cinema 🍿, I don’t think I am the only one…...

Hi, Lemmy! So I made two mistakes. But I'd like to inform Lemmy, that there is a free speech version of the Lemmy code being used to throw racial slurs around. That instance is called goatpen.co I advise you not to go there, as you will come across racial slurs on the front page....

Genuine inquiry . Maybe I am not experienced enough with the various federated platforms but I am an avid user of matrix, and have dabbled in lemmy. From what I have seen is federation is on the path to decentralization but not fully there. It creates fiefdom, little kingdoms . Great yes you may find one that suites you better,...

Alovoa looking for contributors!...

A very nice app that displays the feed in the "post + comments" way rather than in a microblogging manner.
