!fediverse@lemmy.world is not a place to file your grievances with "free speech", disrupting users, moderation, etc.

If you have problems with users: File complaints to the mods or just block them.

If you have problems with mods: File complaints with admins of the instance or just migrate to an alternative community.

If you have problems with an entire instance: Just leave it.

I started to notice that my posts get no interactions at all and that a lot of communities seem to be empty. At first I thought that it's just the effect of Lemme. ee shutting down, but after checking some of the communities from my current alt account I started to notice that .Dev does not pull the latest posts and does not federate my posts.

You can still see lemm.ee for example on search results since the metadata was saved by it, you can see a snippet and the topic title but of course upon clicking you will hit a dead end since its been shutdown.

Is there something like Serpia Search use case for browsing content from PeerTube instances to be used to search such topics we can still see on search engine results to find them without necessarily using an instance? I was wondering if there was and had an API maybe it could be used like on SearX to gather an alternative link for such cases when clicking in a result from a closed instance

one of the Fchannel0 forks is still getting updated, and has an instance running.

link to instance, but visit only if you are completely degeneratehttps://usagi.reisen/

But it seems to be an isolated instance, as the federation appears to have been broken:

Premise

FIAB Segrateciclabile is a local association, promoting cycling as a mean of transport, part of a national FIAB association. What follows is the translation of an Italian post where we share with members of the association why we opened an account on Mastodon (we already have Facebook an IG). I though it would be interesting to share in thos space, since I think this kind of associations should all be on the fediverse, as their values usually align much better than those of X, Facebook etc.

Why FIAB SegrateCiclabile opened an account on Mastodon

a logo where a cycle path sign bycivlrle has its frane replaced with fediverse logo

FIAB SegrateCiclabile recently opened an account on Mastodon @FIABSegrateCiclabile@mastodon.uno where we share events and news from our FIAB Ciclobby section.

What is Mastodon ?

Mastodon is a social network similar to Twitter, but with different principles. Users only see posts from those who follow, in chronological order, without ads. Unlike Twitter or Facebook, Mastodon is part of a larger network (called Fediverse) composed of many connected servers (called instances). Anyone can open one and be part of it, creating a decentralized environment. This means that no one can control everything, as it does with the big platforms.

What does Mastodon have in common with sustainable mobility?

Mastodon and the Fediverse share values with cycling and sustainable mobility, as they arise from grassroots with the aim of solving the structural problems of mainstream solutions.

Freedom and Inclusion

Unlike traditional social media, Mastodon does not require personal data to access content. It promotes an inclusive environment, where hate speech is not tolerated. FIAB is committed to a mobility accessible to all, not only to those who own a car, a driver’s license and the ability and the economic possibility of using it.

Community and Participation

Those who ride a bicycle have a deeper connection with their surroundings. The car isolates, while the bike favors genuine interactions. In the Fediverse, users can connect authentically, with no algorithms that manipulate their choices.

Democracy of the Spaces

The Fediverse represents a reaction to the commercialization of the Internet, giving control back to users. Likewise, FIAB fights to give public space back to people, not cars.

Conclusion

In an era dominated by large corporations, it is essential to enhance digital spaces like Mastodon. These instruments promote freedom of expression, inclusion and democracy, reflecting FIAB. We invite everyone to explore Mastodon and join a community that values genuine connections.

Freedom and democracy must exist in both physical and digital spaces.

Any instances I didn't put a link I either forgot or/and some while I noticed to be federating with lemmy.world which is the origin of the post and post's community not to be showing up (for example, on lemmy.blahaj.zone I could find the community but not the post), so if your instance link to the post wasn't here try with https://lemmyverse.link/lemmy.world/post/31899935 (thanks for Blaze to share this link)

There's a powerful search for filtering by country, language or software (#Mastodon, #Flipboard, #Threads, #Ghost, #Bluesky...) & you can easily export the results for batch-following (in Mastodon at least).

I'm always searching for (verified!) accounts, that I missed. If you know some, please send them to @mho@social.heise.de

Hello people of fedi,

I've just saw someone in my timeline coming from www.minds.com.

I've known minds.com, which was at the start since it was annouced a few years back and even joined, but soon realised it was not for me and too few people... So I left.

It was just a social media with a weird crypto associated to it. But I remember liking their UI and design a lot back in the days.

But now it seems they activated ActivityPub support, doed anyone knows anything about this? Is this recent and we missed something or am I out of touch with Fediverse news? 👀

Hi y'all,

I wrote up part one of an eventual two-part documentary/record-of-failure on how I killed and resurrected my dear lemmy instance. It's in my instance's meta community that isn't federated so I thought I would share it here.

If you are like me and enjoy a technical but not overly boring look at the backside (snicker) of running a lemmy instance read on. It's a bit of a long post so here's a tl;dr front and center.

If there's a better place to post this please let me know. Mods/admins, same: If I need to put this elsewhere just let me know and I'll be happy to comply!

Best,

-oleo

This article is a response to Tim Chambers' recent writeup, titled The Seven Deadly UX Sins of the Fediverse Web Experience (To Fix). It's a pretty great read, and I'm writing this not as a rebuttal, but to analyze and expand on the points made.

This is a musing on 7 problems that have been pointed out, with some ideas on what progress has been made to fix them.

I am posting images daily to some communities. With the months I'm loosing track of what was already posted by me and others.
So does someone know a service (preferably a website) where I can input a image or link and see in which communities and when it was posted?


Edit: Well, I should have clarified from the beginning my intention behind this question.
I was thinking about creating such a service. So I wanted to know if similar already exists (and so save me the effort of development). Also I wanted to sample from the comments if there is interest in such a tool.

Current result: there is no such service but reposts are not really to worry much about.

The idea

I want to build an app, in which you can subscribe or follow profiles or feeds from multiple platforms, including various fediverse platforms (lemmy, Mastodon, Friendica, etc), blogs, and others (no idea what else yet).

App will have optional smart filtering and sorting, and optional algorithm based on your reading habits.

The north star goal is to make this app give the user the feel of being officially supported by the platforms it reads from. It should feel like a lemmy app if you see a lemmy post, feel like Mastodon if it's Mastodon, etc. This is obviously a monumental effort, so I will have to make concessions (hence north star).

Motivation

I see the recession of multi-source or Multi-Platform feed readers (RSS) as quite unfortunate to user choice and freedom.

I think this app, will promote a few ideals of mine:

  • being intentional about content we want on our feed
  • breaking boundary between different platforms (which is the spirit of ActivityPub)
  • promoting open platforms: encourage non-profitting creators to make their content accessible on these platforms, and readers to read from them.
  • consuming internet content without data mining, addictive scrolling, and having the choice to smart filter or sort your feed.

What are your thoughts? Do you agree that this is worthwhile?

Besides blog posts (RSS), lemmy, Mastodon, and other big fsdiverse platforms, what would you want to see on this app?

After the Apicalipse there was a website where you could see which instance de/federates with others, as a map. It's url was https://lemmymap.feddit.de/ but I guess it went down with feddit.de I found even a screenshot in a thread:

screenshot of lemmymap

Currently with the instances button you can see defederation from one direction, but not from the other, e.g. if an instance is defederated by a lot others you can't see that easily.

Does something like this exist?

Example, Lemmy.ml and Lemmy.world have duplicate communities aren't connected at all. So we are artificially isolating groups more and making it confusing for would be converts.

Short and too the point
