the thing is, bonfire is not a single software like mastodon or lemmy, ideally is more like wordpress for platforms
Hi! Itās me as usual.
I was wondering if there could be a way for lemmy when federating to at least fetch:
- community names
- community nicknames
- usernames
Iām a fan of the fact that it doesnāt fetch everything because it would be a mess very quickly and it makes no sense to fetch a whole server because one user of your instance maybe wants to follow a single community from a super big instance⦠But names? So when people search for communities donāt need to āforceā federation check using the exact syntax.
Ohhhh I did not expect such an endorsement :D
Ty a lot
Predictably rough start because solarpunk and even Reddit are not that famous in italy. Most of the āāāsceneāāā is fine on telegram and discord so asking to speak more in public and less in private is gonna be hard but for the sake of free flow of information and a slower pace social media we will still try u.u
@db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com someone in the GUI should be stated that you need to allowlist gui.fediseer.com to ensure the functionalities u.u
Solved by allowlisting it
Cannot claim an instance because of API error both with or without mastodon
Edit solution: allowlist gui.fediseer.com
Then someone could say that foss is too much, better go open source and then the environment will have to take care of the stuff that basic licenses wonāt take care of
Iād rather strive for the better and look for copyfarleft licenses
I agree with some of the points of the original thread:
- having Twitter clone or Instagram clone but decentralized kinda sucks no matter how you put it and itās probably not mass sustainable
On the other hand⦠Lemmy is just a forum that can connect to other forums. You donāt find cool subreddits searching for them, the good ones are the ones recommended by other people, usually not by search. The fediverse actually suffers from having a big user base that wants Reddit/twitter/insta but decentralized instead of having small forums/microblogs connected to each other. Also the reason why you see me often advocating for less āgeneralized instancesā and wanting more vertical focused ones. This is easily possible with lemmy dividing by topic and with mastodon dividing by localization.
If you want the fedi to thrive, build lemmy instances focused on being a stand alone forum first and mastodon ones focused on being local first (same for mobilizon)
Ye I was not finding it but itās probably because maybe without federation the setting doesnāt pop up :)
When not logged in, some instances have āallā by default while others have ālocalā.
Is there a config line to choose it?
Iām gonna quote myself from another comment

- any ssg like Zola or Pelican
- mataroa.blog

- gotosocial
- lemmy :)
Right now I have no time to watch the video, do they talk about the fact that foss is not enough because itās still easily co-opted by capitalists?
Bro stop with this mindset
The world is not so simple and people cannot even imagine the amount of stuff Orban chooses on a daily basis. It would surprise me even if a single voter was aware and agreed on every single thing Orban does and says honestly.
This applies to every representative democracy obviously.
I was just thinking of something like this the other day!
Would this allow someone to just expose a single rss file on the internet instead of a whole blog? For example if one doesnāt want to have a ui for the blog or the files are already published to other sites
Se ai dev open source interessasse sviluppare per non tecnici avresti ragione, ma così non è
E infatti lāopen non mi pare che fermi Google dal fare le schifezze, sia sotto un punto di vista etico sia di controllo dello sviluppo tecnologico
Lāopen source e il foss non bastano, mettiamoci una pietra sopra
Also apple google etc got companies in countries in the EU

Iād like to know if someone has been successfully hosting Lemmy with yunohost because Iām pondering to start doing it but itās not available on arm so I cannot test it without start paying a vps.
So ye, are there any hiccups or weird behaviors?

I think that often the confusion when talking about solarpunk happens because solarpunk as per now it's a term that includes different subset of its characteristics without being necessarily superimposable with each other
2 examples:
- can have solarpunk aesthetic produced in a non solarpunk way
- can have solarpunk movements not relying on the solarpunk aesthethic
I think this reasoning applies well to solarpunk. Itās true that ethical consumerism doesnāt scale etc but we have to resist the urge to give money to the people who will commodify solarpunk just for cheap merch and media.
For example: game full of bad messages but made by a workers coop and ethically distributed > game with solarpunk aesthethic made by limited liability company that took or wants to take VCs money and run in the capital race
Hi! Is there anything like hackingwithswift (preferably as 100 days of SwiftUI) but focused on elixir and phoenix?
Many dismiss utopian ideas. But imagining a better world is a vital political skill for tackling todayās challenges

From mastodon to follow an account or a community on lemmy you use the @name@server format and there is no difference between a community name and a user-name
so i was wondering if anyone tried and checked what happened

Hi! Another question about lemmy development.
Is lemmy working towards functioning more with discourse, flarum and nodebb federations?
I think that mastodon kinda fucked the fediverse and having a costellation of linked forums is much more powerful than microblogging so i'm interested in using lemmy as a forum more than a simple link aggregator
Hi!
In the Apollo app (basically the reason i started using reddit and the reason i also left reddit lol) there was a very useful feature: friends.
It was not a mutual friendlist like facebook, and not even much of a follow like twitter; it was more a ''favorite users'' list.
Basically I added in there people that always commented stuff I was interested in and this helped me find new communities and interesting post without relying on other discovery ways. Seen the decentralized nature of lemmy, i think it could be even more useful than on reddit.
