Comment on Fedia.io is shutting down (and re-opening as a Lemmy instance)
Blaze@discuss.tchncs.de 8 months agoInteresting, do you have a link to the fork? Is it the one by pawb.social, github.com/PawbSocial/lemmy ?

The one I saw the other day was !pangora@programming.dev - the developer said their idea was to work on things the community really wants like moderation tools with the idea that this could either be integrated back into Lemmy or, if it got traction, it could become a thing in its own right.
I did Google for others and found Lenny, described by someone else as a “Lemmy fork/instance for bronies” or “a Lemmy where I can use ethnic slurs”.

Thanks, Pangora seems promising!

I think the main developers being tankies might put people off from contributing, so it might also be a way to get more people involved even if the changes ultimately feel back into Lemmy itself.
