I can't do latte art, I call mine "the blob" or "polarbear in a snowstorm" lol
Ah, that's based off the AMA he "did". So nothing newer than that?
The CEO just tripled down and said they are not changing their intended API pricing regardless of how many subs and users go dark.
Link? That's not good news :/
Did he get caught editing comments again? And the shadowbanning?
I don't think I'll go back except for niche content/communities I don't expect to see here for a while.
Pretty much! There isn't currently a way to migrate accounts though, so keep that in mind.
Might not be a feature you need now, but it is a nice-to-have from Mastodon that I'd like to see available everywhere.
Trying my best! I'm trying to decide if I want to open my instance up to more users or not as well.
Yeah, I've started just posting anything that seems interesting while trying not to flood the place. I'm pretty deep into the tech world so it's been mostly tech, but I'd highly recommend posting content that interests you and I'm sure it'll interest others.
If you're using a lemmy web interface (as opposed to an app), there is a cross-post button you can use to post in other communities that are tanginately related (if you decide to create a community for your topics).
Agreed, but I think all instances linked there are going to see high load over the next while. We shall see how the network stands up...
Oh, I've been creating a lot of tech content, like my old days on Reddit. These days I mostly lurk on LGTQ subreddits though and idk how the Lemmy community feels about that (not that I have much to post in that regards anyways, link/forum wise)
I think for me it’s going to be hit or miss. Right now I’m on this more, but it doesn’t have a lot of the content I’m interested in currently.
Glad I could provide some insight! It’s not something I see talked about too much even on Reddit. Let me know if you have any questions or things I could flesh out more in the article!
I’m still relatively new to ActivityPub and Federated systems in general, though I’ve had my Lemmy and Mastodon instances for 8+ months now I don’t use them as much as I was expecting, sadly. Running your own instance can be very isolating and any content you put directly on your instance probably won’t gain much traction (at least on Mastodon, Lemmy seems to fair a bit better).
It’s one of a handful of blogs that I’ve run over the last couple of years, the other one that’s still online is HomeLab.Blog. I actually meant to run a federated blog platform like WriteFreely, but they don’t have a production docket image, and I saw that Ghost is planning on adding ActivityPub support.
This article might be more appropriate on that blog and an article about my experience with Federated systems might be more on-topic on this one. Oops.
