As much as I find the idea great. The killer feature of TikTok is how easy it is to publish a video with filters and musics. Not sure how well a federated application can follow. Then, there is TikTok algorithm which is a common critic of the app but is how you get a never-ending flow of content which isn’t uninteresting enough for you to turn the app off
You can follow a lemmy community on Mastodon, and even comment from Mastodon.
It’s not optimum, you see it like the community retooting each post and then the comments as reply to post but it works
It’s crazy that people would rather migrate to a social media managed by a power hungry capitalist than to a “libre” platform
Considering how powerful is the copyright mafia (Remember that the pirate bay founder got jail-time) I totally understand why the people running the instance are doing so. I get why user are pissed off, but they’re free to host their own instance and deal by themselves with the legal liability
In term of UX the miss/calc/shark key beat Mastodon.
However, Mastodon has way more instances (including many ran by well established organisations) and a stabler codebase (while, regarding *key, I am a bit concerned by the amount of forks)
It’s the same fediverse so you would see the sa me federation from both
Is it linked to the ongoing Drama on the french wikipedia ?
How does federation works with with “SEO” ? Wikipedia is always among the top result on search engine, how would peopel find about Ibis ?

New hardware, so wanted something moving a bit faster than debian, and I thought it was the opportunity to switch from Ubuntu is an old African word meaning I can’t configure Debian to Manjaro is an old African word meaning I can’t configure arch :)
Even though, I am not fan of “Everyone gets one bluesky without any consent” (and what happens to our data ?). Having activity pub as a way to communicate between bluesky and Threads really limit what these big evil actor can do to the fediverse.
One “evil actor” having 10 times more use as the fedi is dangerous, having 2 bigs actors 10 bigger than the rest of the fedi, seems to somehow limit the risk. Feel like the feature might more be used by Threads people to talk with bluesky than by Mastodon people to talk with Threadsky
I am even surprised that the Taliban let someone buy the queer.af domain.
But it’s also a cool feature of the federation, an instance is closed by an authoritarian government, tons of others are still there, and migration is easy, so you don’t loose you whole network. Still an annoyance for the user, but not as much an annoyance as when a centralized social media closes.
Feel like the *bin and the *key have a lot of cool features, but way too many forks to have a understandable product. It’s pitty
Not really sure how flipboard is working (I believe it was "included with my old samsung phone but that’s it). However, would I see spam if I don’t follow them ?
I known brand have CM whose job is to get re-tweet/boost whatever how it’s called and use hashtags to extend theirs reach. But if I don’t follow them, I doubt the person I follow would start massively boosting corporate content. If once in a while I hear about a new phone/jacket/book I’ll survive
It’s somehow fun to see instance rules adding a clause about We do not federate with organization involved in Genocides
And a pitty that Meta is that Bad !
A fool was using this symbol, that fool is you. A pronoun contains it .
Do not under estimate the copyright mafia. The pirate bay admins spent time in jail (and didn’t host anything).
Hosting copyright infringement is taken seriously, including civil damage which would definitely bankrupt a non profit organization. But it could result in jail time if the administrators don’t take action.
A small team like LW (or any Lemmy instance) doesn’t have a team of lawyers dealing with that shit. Please be kind with your admin and follow the laws, even the ones which suck
Kbin, it’s an indepedant fediverse project which as lemmy aims at having a similar look and feel as reddit/digg/slashdot.
There is a few differences like kbin has a micro-blogging function, and some right-wingers are not comfortable with lemmy funder being openly communists, but it’s 90% the same at the point you could just treat a kbin instance like a lemmy instance.
I believe that pixelfed consider adding a thread function, but no idea what’s the status there
Proprietary software and free software are both highly political choice, not sure whether the fediverse will change something. Unfortunately, many left wing politician still choose to use twitter/facebook and so on
It’s funny because everything I heard about beehaw would make me put them in the authoritarian right category with we want your e-mail for registration, we defederate everything that we don’t like
I am gonna give a hot-take, but we need more conservative on the fediverse, of course I don’t talk about the nazi uncle who still say that During the war, German soldiers were well behave unlike the Americans but classic liberal who support people like Macron/Merkel/Von der leyen and other reasonable right-winger are people we can talk-with
Ah oui j’ai oublié une négation,
Justement Mélenchon est tellement républicain que c’est une caricature de la Ve et de tout ses défauts
A quick check shows me that there is also !osr@ttrpg.network which is also kinda unactive.
