What would you define social media as?
Oxford says.
websites and applications that enable users to create and share content or to participate in social networking.
That definition certainly matches Lemmy.

Lemmy is social media

I would like to add RSS, I don’t think it’s feasible cadence.moe/…/2022-09-01-discontinuing-bibliogram
A much-requested feature I added early on was RSS feeds. This ended up getting quickly turned off for the main instance, because RSS usage was dwarfing interactive usage. Many of these feeds had been added to people’s readers and forgotten about. Even today I still receive a decent number of forgotten requests for feeds — these forgotten feeds haven’t returned useful data for more than two years. Feed requests aren’t free. Bibliogram needs to make an outgoing web request, wait for it, and convert the response data. This also uses up a piece of Bibliogram’s rate limit to Instagram, even if nobody’s there to see the feed that Bibliogram generates.
I could add it, but have it disabled by default, so anyone hosting a personal instance can enable it.

I’ve already read that article, the situation on Instagram has changed a bit, which makes scraping easier.
Ratelimits are still a problem if you don’t have a residential IP, but I have a workaround for that (which I’m hesitant to share publicly).

There’s another relay: atproto.africa .
Relays don’t index posts, they collect them from different servers, and provide a “firehouse” of events.
You can crawl pdses directly, akin to the fediverse. AppViewLite does this (and is lightweight enough to run on a phone).
You don’t need a relay or appview with reddwarf.app .
The fediverse also has relays.

Jack Dorsey has little involvement in bluesky.
He rage quit the board of directors after they started moderating content.
- Comment on Bluesky just verified ICE 1 day ago:
Lemmy blocks are really just mutes. On mastodon, admins can see if you blocked someone.
The fediverse really isn’t better in this regard.

No, but you do regain a lot of sensitivity and your glans becomes less calloused.
According to the Reddit threads at least. I still have the foreskin I was born with.
