I said it elsewhere, but I say it here too, I HATE how corporate social media sites have taken SOCIAL out of social media.

Thankfully the Fediverse is mostly taking that back. But if we don't expand to get those that are still on corporate social media to move here, then we'll just become the echo chambers we hate. That's why the Threads integration is a good thing. We need to expand.

WHAT ARE YOU USING TO REPLACE #REDDIT ??

I've been a long time Reddit user but they've pushed me over the edge and it's time to walk away but finding a replacement has been very difficult.

I have some issues with the #Lemmy platform developers but am looking for some input from folks in the #Fediverse

It's been a while since I've checked out #Lemmy. It's only just clicked how awesome it is that I can post links to communities from my mastodon account.

The #fediverse takes time to full sink in, but it's so freaking cool.

I am serving and developing #Fediverse tools.

Fedi-Safety: https://github.com/db0/fedi-safety
Pictrs-Safety: https://github.com/db0/pictrs-safety
#Pythonseer: https://github.com/Fediseer/pythonseer

And finally, my own #Lemmy instance: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com

All my work is #FOSS and meant to improve the admin toolset for dealing with bad actors.

Sneak peek of a graphic I made for a talk I'm giving next week about the #Fediverse - choose your po... I mean UI for today's Fedi-mission 🙂

F.A.B. - Fediverse Adventure Begin...

#Mastodon #Lemmy #Pixelfed

Have you even tried #Piefed? Piefed.social is:
"A lemmy/kbin clone written in Python with Flask.

-Clean, simple code that is easy to understand and contribute to. No fancy design patterns or algorithms.
-Easy setup, easy to manage - few dependencies and extra software required.
-AGPL.
-First class moderation tools."

It's actually really quite nice, and I don't hear much noise about it. Go give this project a look at https://piefed.social.

Step 3 of my evil plan regarding #fediverser and the #redditmigration has been executed. Anyone with a reddit account can go to https://portal.alien.top to claim their account at the alien.top #lemmy instance, and when they do so it gives you a list of your current reddit subscriptions and recommends the corresponding lemmy community.

Now, on to build and extend the lemmy communities so that we have more recommendations to make.

If only all fediverse apps work the same. Mastodon users can see Threads profile but Pixelfed can't. At least there's progress ...

Anyone know if Peertube, Misskey, Lemmy, Friendica and other activitypub apps can see Threads?

Esteemed #Fediverse –
in this case I got no answer from maintainers at all, so I am starting public again:

If you read an announcement about a “federated #wikipedia alternative”;
here is 1 thing you should know:

Larry #Sanger is a right-wing conspiracy theorist and probably an active Nazi. We had a formal group decision to keep him out.
I did inform Jimmy Wales about the defamation too …
#lemmy #alternativeFacts

PS:
We are working on federating the real wikibase incl. wikidata. Watch out for wikis “Data Reuse Days” …
#ActivityPub

A list of alternative webclients for various #fediverse software:

By default, all posts show up in search results on #PieFed, #Lemmy and #Kbin. But in a first for the threadverse, PieFed has just added some privacy features that Mastodon had for a long time – being searchable is now optional!

Un-tick the “My posts appear in search results” checkbox in your settings and not only will your posts be hidden from the PieFed search on your instance, but on all other PieFed instances too (yes, it federates, but only to PieFed instances).

But wait, there’s more. Google will not add your profile or any of your posts to it’s index (because of the <meta name=”robots” content=”noindex”> tag used when rendering your posts) AND comments you made on other people’s posts won’t be indexed by Google either (because of the <!–googleoff: all–> tag).

So if you’re tired of living in a fishbowl, want a bit of privacy or would rather people can’t follow you around, PieFed is here for you.

@liaizon

* https://r.nf - #Lemmy
* https://fedia.io - running #Mbin

I want a new #lemmy account:
- on a cool domain that is short and doesn't contain the word lemmy
- has not been caught up in too much federation drama so is able to participate widely across the network
- does not have open registrations
- will stick around for a long time
- does not end in .social or a domain owned by the taliban

Actually I can't really bash #Lemmy for this (as much as I'd want to) because it seems like pretty much the rest of the #fediverse has this problem of images not getting immediately removed from the server when you delete the image or even your account. I've tested with #Mastodon, #Pleroma, and #Misskey (even Misskey somehow gets it wrong by not immediately making your image unavailable by the URL even if you've deleted it from your Drive, however this doesn't always happen, see below).

Now I'm not sure about instance admin stuff (and I haven't tested with my admin hat on in this Misskey), but I'm guessing you don't have a view of all uploaded photos by a user that an admin can delete from in Mastodon and Pleroma either (please prove me wrong though!). :sagume_think: Misskey does let you view all files uploaded by a user and delete from there, though I'm not sure if the file gets immediately removed from the server once you hit delete, but it's probably gonna be like what I'm going to write below

What I do know about Misskey is that, if you've never accessed the URL generated for the file in your Drive, and hit delete, the next time you access it, it definitely will no longer be available; a pure 404 as expected. However if you've accessed the URL at least once, then the file will get cached. I'm not sure if it's Misskey doing this or the reverse proxy (like #nginx), because clearing cache or switching to a whole 'nother browser still shows the file is available.

Oh, and have I mentioned that all three software will automatically put your image into the server the moment you hit the upload button, even if you haven't submitted the post yet? Yeah it's equally as easy as Lemmy to accidentally upload something to those three as well.

What a #privacy mess. :seija_coffee:

RE: https://mastodon.social/users/MichaelAltfield/statuses/112038283570306227

PSA: you can't delete photos uploaded to #lemmy. So don't (accidentally) upload a nude to lemmy. That would be bad 😱

https://tech.michaelaltfield.net/2024/03/04/lemmy-fediverse-gdpr/

Oh, and if you delete your account? It doesn't delete your uploaded photos. And good luck getting your instance admin to delete it; it requires a manual db query, api call, and — oh, none of this is documented? Welcome to my #fediverse #GDPR nightmare 💣🤯

@youronlyone #lemmy and #kbin are all about federated groups. Lemmy also uses the ! Notation

My anti-spam #lemmy automoderator bot #Threativore is now available as a docker container and it is now fully enabled for reporting, removing, and banning. Here's my lemmy announcement: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/15112791

It's been two months since I got my #RaspberryPi and I won't lie, everything is still so exciting. I get so happy when I do stupid little things like upgrade my #Zigbee dongle without everything breaking. Honestly, #SelfHosting is a beautiful world. Though it's all down to how kind and helpful everyone is. I'm super grateful for the tremendous communities behind #HomeAssistant, #Docker, #JellyFin, #Navidrome, #Immich and obviously #Mastodon and #Lemmy.

#PieFed can now send messages to other people on the same instance as well as people on #Lemmy instances.

The UI layout should be familiar to anyone who has used messenger.com or similar apps.

If your account is less than a week old or if you've been downvoted a lot you won't be able to message anyone.

The usual delete, block & report functions are available.
