Lemdee

I really want to see Peertube flourish but I’m just not sure it’s going to work out. Video streaming platforms are a much different beast than the micro blogs of Mastodon or forums of Lemmy. But, this is a good step in that direction so good luck to them.

51% of the fediverse, like the article showed.

That’s a single instance, not the entire fediverse. I know reading is hard sometimes.

But it appears to me some are so disappointed from meta (or maybe preoccupied) that they will never give meta a chance.

Where have you been the past 15 years?? Meta was given a chance, over and over and over again. They’ve shown and continue to show that they do not care about the communities on their platforms, they don’t care about privacy, they don’t care how their algorithms push alt-right garbage, they even encourage it as some studies have shown. That’s not even getting into half the shit they’ve done to ruin communities and the internet at large.

Anybody that wants to “give Meta a chance” on the Fediverse has to be a corporate shill or just real, real dense.

Dear Meta:

Signed, The Fediverse

Skill issue.

Edit: Downvote away, it’s not like this suggestion warranted actual meaningful discussion. It’s just somebody who fundamentally doesn’t understand how the fediverse works and thankfully the comments are reflecting that.

Edit: replying in an edit because this post doesn’t deserve more engagement with a new comment.

@orientalsniper: I know how the fediverse works, been promoting it since the APIception.

That’s cool and all but platform promotion does not equal platform understanding. Especially since you’re asking questions like this from Raddle of all places rather than looking at the info on GitHub or any of the documentation linked in instances (at the bottom of the page above the code link). I stand by my statement that OP does not understand how the fediverse works and I’m still happy the comments appropriately flamed this suggestion.

I don’t have anything to share really but I’m here for the suggestions and making a comment to come back to later while increasing post engagement lol

Idk, must be resolved because I’m on the mobile browser for lemmy.world and it’s fine 🤷

Federation is stupid

So don’t use it.

convince me otherwise.

I tried to get into neocities like six months ago but I just don’t have the want to customize my own site with html from scratch anymore like when I was younger. I like that it exists still but there’s something to be said of modernization when you have limited time each day with other life responsibilities. That being said I hope it takes off!

I’m hoping they add that feature to Lemmy soon enough and switching won’t be necessary.

Tacos = toots

yeah, that tracks.

Not sure, but I’m getting the same thing when trying to connect directly. I’m guessing they got the hug of death. It’s the second day of the blackout on Reddit, this is probably the time of critical mass for people that are migrating. My assumption is they all tried to join that main lemmy.ml instance rather than distributing the load across smaller instances.

Oh that’s good to know, I’ll be doing the same now! 😄

For sure. Which is another great thing about this decentralization. If it a community gets too big and has too many asshats, you can easily break off into another instance!

I don’t think Lemmy will be immune to that, but I think the decentralization will help a lot in controlling that negative aspect.

Honestly, my discussions have been nicer over here on the fediverse than they were on most parts of Reddit.

It’s still fairly new, hopefully that’s a feature that can be prioritized and added soon.
