Let's try it again: This post from #Mastodon can reach the whole #Fediverse, #Bluesky & more. That's #Sharkey, #Pixefeld (hence the pic), #Mbin, #Lemmy, #Friendica, #Hometown, #Akkoma... How far can in c/fediverse@lemmy.world

Maybe lemmy.world needs a bit more time to federate them. I can see 9 comments from my Lemmy instance already.

Hi from Lemmy.

Call for feedback on plan & proposed questions for Instance Census 2024 in c/fediverse@lemmy.world

@instantnudel@feddit.org maybe this would be interesting for feddit.org as well.

As an average OG ex-redditor, Lemmy needs to move away from it's base barebones UI to something like Photon by default, here's why. in c/fediverse@lemmy.world

I know I'm tech-savvy, but I actually enjoy the fact that Lemmy (and the Fediverse) doesn't hand everything to me easily on a plate. The hunt for new interesting communities, my long well curated block list, setting up Lemmy apps exactly to my preferences is part of the fun.

If someone handed me a fully configured Voyager app on day one, I wouldn't have had all the exciting experiences trying a bunch of apps to find the best one for me, learning how to block instances and communities, learning how to correctly link to communities and users, finding new ways to discover communities.

All this stuff is part of why I come back here everyday. A ready out-of-the-box solution is kinda boring.

What are some fediverse apps that need contributors? in c/fediverse@lemmy.world
[–] squirrel@discuss.tchncs.de 21 points 1 month ago

Lemmy has a list of open feature requests with approved payments from NLnet.

PeerTube needs testers for their official app in c/fediverse@lemmy.world
[–] squirrel@discuss.tchncs.de 7 points 2 months ago

Same here. I hope they'll add custom instances and login soon. I'll keep it installed though.

Just tried to register an account for Loops (there are 1000 videos available according to the fediverse report), no email received so far, have other people encountered the same issue? in c/fediverse@lemmy.world
[–] squirrel@discuss.tchncs.de 17 points 2 months ago (1 children)

It takes a while. I waited a couple days for my confirmation mail to arrive. Keep in mind that Loops is being built by a single dev. If you read the toots by @dansup you'll see that it's a work in progress.

Lemmy total number of users last month (very close to 1.5 M users) in c/fediverse@lemmy.world
[–] squirrel@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That's why I try to post more. It might be a problem that it's hosted on lemmy.ml though, as some instances block them.

Let's talk about ClubsAll in c/fediverse@lemmy.world
[–] squirrel@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 3 months ago

I don't think it's censorship necessarily. Their approach to combine similar communities into one club could be the cause and maybe they just haven't set up the c/fediverse club yet.

[–] squirrel@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They don't seem to federate with lemmy.ml since no comments from @OsrsNeedsF2P@lemmy.ml are visible on ClubsAll.

Let's talk about ClubsAll (discuss.tchncs.de)
 

I've just read about ClubsAll in the Fediverse Report and did some digging. It seems to be another Threadiverse service federating with Lemmy and others.

While I always welcome new platforms into the fediverse, there are some weird things with this one.

  • It isn't open source, but the developer mentioned on ProductHunt that they want to open source it in the future.
  • You can't run your own ClubsAll instance at the moment
  • They want you to join their Discord, but wouldn't it be better to have the conversation around it on ClubsAll itself? I've found a ClubsAll Community on ClubsAll but it only has two posts from 10 months ago without any comments or upvotes.
  • Their main search bar is just a Google search
  • They want to finance it through paid accounts, awards and donations according to their about page.
  • According to their privacy policy they collect interactions with the content, like voting, bookmarking and reporting to improve and personalize the website and to develop new products and services and for marketing and promotional purposes.
  • I haven't found content that originated on ClubsAll yet, apart from c/ClubsAll. All I'm seeing is content federated from Lemmy communities.

For me there are some red flags in there, like closed source code, paid accounts and data collection for marketing. But, correct me if I'm wrong.

Last Week in Fediverse – ep 85 (fediversereport.com)
 

It’s been an eventful week in the fediverse, with the Swiss government ending their Mastodon pilot, the launch of the Social Web Foundation, Interaction Policies with GoToSocial and more!

Last Week in Fediverse – ep 84 (fediversereport.com)
 

Welcome back to another update. Some short housekeeping notes: Last Week in Fediverse will now release every Wednesday. Furthermore, I’ve split all news about Bluesky and the ATmosphere into it’s own separate newsletter, Last Week in the ATmosphere. I originally wanted to keep them together, but the newsletters were simply getting too big, so it was time to split them. Lots of news this week with FediForum, a Fediverse Discovery Project, and mozilla.social shutting down, so lets dive in.
