Today's social media transform us into merely numbers.
No problem for me.

- Comment on What existing platforms do you wish were federated? 2 weeks ago:
- Comment on What are some of the more novel forms of fediverse software? 1 month ago:
Socialhome with its tiled display of posts
Bonfire, which is modular, and will be available in many flavours (for Open Science, organisations or simply a social network)
Mobilizon - events and groups.
Gancio - events, published anonymously. Instance can be followed from Fediverse as an account.
Bookwyrm for books
Postmarks - a federated bookmarking website
Funkwhale - for uploading and listening to music
Castopod - Wordpress but for podcasting?
Misskey and its forks - more than Twitter emulation - includes emoji reactions and animated text! - Comment on Adding instances to your services? 2 months ago:
- Comment on What's going on with kbin.social? 2 months ago:
This time is probably unrelated to @ernest's supposed inactivity. Actually, his another /kbin server, https://karab.in has been brought back on 15 of February.
Why not kbin.social? Well, this server is co-administered by FTdL (Technology for People Foundation) (https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/t/177112).
Entire FTdL infrastructure was down from 16 o'clock in Cracow to this morning.

- Comment on The free fediverses should support concentric federations of instances 4 months ago:
Reddit's multireddits (a combined feed from multiple reddits) are a small step in this direction on a centralized social network, and there have already been requests for similar Lemmy functionality ("supercommunities")
They are already introduced into /kbin - as Collections
- Comment on The free fediverses should emphasize networked communities 4 months ago:
Meta's fediverses probably also won't be able to compete with Threads on this. Threads plan to make federation opt-in is the right thing to do from a privacy and safety perspective, but also means that people in Meta's fediverses won't be able to communiate with most of the people on Threads. And Meta has the option of adding communication between Threads and the billions of people on other networks like Instagram (which already shares the same infrastructure), Facebook, and WhatsApp. Longer-term, it seems to me that this is likely to be a huge challenge for Meta's fediverses, but fediverse influencers supporting federating with Meta have various arguments why it doesn't matter.
Is it really Meta's fediverses, when communication between them and their alleged owner is fairly little and actively gatekept by their alleged owner?

- Comment on Authorized Fetch Circumvented by Alt-Right Developers 4 months ago:
Authorised Fetch existed long before Instagram Threads. When it is turned on, an instance will require any other server to sign their request to fetch any post. This prevents "leaking" of posts via ActivityPub to blocked instances.
This setting is turned off by default, because some software are incompatible with it (like /kbin, Pixelfed before June 2023, maybe Lemmy too), because it makes server load higher, and it may make some replies missing (at least on microblogging side).
- Comment on Lemmy MAUs climbing back up! You love to see it. 4 months ago:
Some Misskey instances do not report their MAU numbers. Misskey total MAU is undercounted because of this, but, looking at Misskey instance stats I suppose, that it's 20 000 at most.
All Misskey forks (Firefish, Iceshrimp, Cherrypick, Foundkey, Meisskey, Sharkey), that are listed by FediDB make another 10 000 MAU. - Comment on The Fediverse is working just as intended. 4 months ago:
Most instance admins are federating with Threads/Meta.
Not on Lemmy. Sort this Fedipact list by software and choose Lemmy to see this.
- Comment on The Fediverse is working just as intended. 4 months ago:
I was looking for recommendations for alternative instances… I’d appreciate anyone actually responding to my comment.
OK.
Largest Lemmy instances blocking Instagram Threads are (according to fedipact.veganism.social) lemmy.ml, lemm.ee, lemmy.ca, Hexbear, feddit.de, Beehaw, Lemmygrad, lemmy.dbzer0.com, lemmy.blahaj.zone, discuss.tchncs.de, sopuli.xyz, aussie.zone, feddit.nl, lemmy.zip, midwest.social, feddit.uk, mander.xyz, ...
- Comment on I'm Starting A Search Engine For The Fediverse 4 months ago:
Mastodon since 4.2 version supports allows its users to opt into appearing into search results. Just respect this flag with Mastodon users, and you will be fine, IMHO
- Comment on Lemmy.world Should Defederate with Threads 4 months ago:
It’s perfectly possible to create a watertight federated network excluding both federation and scraping from Threads/Meta on Mastodon using authorized fetch and whitelisting.
Authorised Fetch is not supported yet by /kbin
- Comment on how did we survive threads earlier this year? 4 months ago:
And if BlueSky ever finishes their own proprietary interoperability protocol (...)
- Comment on Threads is officially starting to test ActivityPub integration 5 months ago:
- Comment on Top 50 defederated instances 5 months ago:
Lemmy is not able to disturb Mastodon as much as other microblogging instances.
- Comment on Top 50 defederated instances 5 months ago:
Nobody on a Lemmy instance is able to follow accounts (like on Mastodon or /kbin). Thus, Lemmy will not fetch anything from Mastodon unless written specifically to a threadiverse community (and the community being CCed). Because of this, Lemmy instance are less harmful, than (potentially) any microblogging server (be it Mastodon, Pleroma, Soapbox, *key, etc.)
- Comment on Top 50 defederated instances 5 months ago:
a lot of lemmy instances have the blocked list public
SDF is not one of them
- Comment on Top 50 defederated instances 5 months ago:
Gab federates no more.
- Comment on Top 50 defederated instances 5 months ago:
None of these instances are Lemmy (or anything other on threadiverse)
- Comment on Relative size comparison of social media platforms (December 2023) 5 months ago:
For China:
- TikTok is called there Douyin
- microblogging is mainly done on Sina Weibo
- Baidu Baike (by Baidu search engine) is counterpart of Reddit?
- Comment on Relative size comparison of social media platforms (December 2023) 5 months ago:
Not actually the region you asked about, but wykop.pl is actually larger in Poland, than Reddit.
- Comment on Would it be great to post videos in peertube with lemmy/mastodon accounts 5 months ago:
An instance admin can enable login to PeerTube via specific Mastodon instance. This is all we have.
- Comment on Threads has hashtags now 5 months ago:
There can be only one per post?
That is a magazine (like on /kbin), not a hashtag!
- Comment on i love centralized social networks... 5 months ago:
You didn't discover the potential of open social networks yet, and you admire walled gardens because of that. You will not actually need global search inside a fediverse app, because with Fediverse's open architecture you will be eventually able to search any post on fedi (for Mastodon, only for consenting accounts, though) simply via an Internet search engine!
- Comment on 5 months ago:
"(...)Just like Lemmy won’t support Place objects, I’m not sure if any other platform will ever support Page objects, because Pages are much bigger in scope than anything most Fediverse applications ever deal with."
ArticleorPageobjects are supported not only by Lemmy and /kbin (and Mastodon, but as link). It is a default object type on WriteFreely, can be used on WordPress, and is compatible with Friendica. Hometown (a Mastodon fork) also renders Pages and Articles in their entirety.@feditips @fediverse @FediFollows @mention @masimatutu
