Sync had Lemmy.world as the default instance to register a new account (might still be the case, I'm not sure). One of the factors for sure.

Thanks for the update

Thanks for sharing !

Yes, seems delusional at best

Indeed, especially with 0.19 that allows you to migrate your subs and block lists in two clicks

You are not the only one noticing it. Probably trying to maximize the user provided content they can sell to language model creators

Feel free to join any other instance from that list: https://github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmy-instances?tab=readme-ov-file

You can export and import your settings (including subscriptions and block lists) in two clicks from your account settings.

Here is your community viewed from Mbin: https://kbin.run/m/koalawallawoods@lemmy.world

As you can see, posts are there, it's possible to comment as well.

It will be the same for Sublinks

Stable, around 50k monthly active users

!lemmygrow could be a nice idea to help people find smaller communities (memes, tech, news and politics are easy to find, the rest not so much)

Reddit continues to mess up, so we can expect more people as the Reddit experience gets worse and Lemmy/Mbin/Piefed/Sublinks improve

Here is the modlog: https://lemmy.world/modlog?page=1&actionType=ModRemoveCommunity

Seems to have been made by a mod from LW indeed

Defederate Threads. There is no way the Fediverse communities survive a 100 million users platform joining.

Lemmy is 50k monthly active users

That includes your private messages

Those messages are not private, there is a disclaimer about it every time you write one

I usually see a lot of people downvoting posts in a language they don't speak, presumably because they don't care.

I would suggest those people to select their languages in their settings so that they don't see this kind of content.

I also do not personally believe in yet another slicing of the communities into different platforms, and if Sublinks aren’t integrated into Lemmy - requiring new communities or separate accounts - I will not be following along. Of course, somebody else could always take over my communities in that event, but I just wanted to let out my opinion on this.

Sublinks would work th same way as Mbin does. People on Mbin can currently interact with all the Lemmy content in a similar way Lemmy users do.

The reason this effort didn’t work and most of these communities reverted back was the extreme fragmentation and confusing nature of the early Fediverse.

To be fair, when the migration happened, Lemmy wasn't ready. Federation was still flimsy, and LW was under constant DDoS attack. Lemmy is in a much better state now.

Hopefully unhappy users will change instances and thé population will ne more spread as a result

Hello,

Thank you for this post, a nice piece of positivity among the tensions from the last few days.

You are a great person, thank you for your work.

Don't lemm.ee and sh.itjust.works have a very low number of defederations?

You don't follow it, you see it from All

Definitely. I guess they are still refraining from killing it as they know it might be the last straw

Mastodon still implements privacy and blocking to an extend: https://nerdschalk.com/make-mastodon-account-private/

So it's still possible even within the Fediverse to have more granularity.

Why would you need to?

What the heck

Matrix video call support is still in beta IIRC? https://call.element.io/

Good to see Lemmy compatibility!

Hello, welcome here!

Be aware that your content may be downvoted as not completely related to the topic of the community. There is !taylorswift@poptalk.scrubbles.tech which will definitely welcome this kind of content.

Your instance looks very interesting, I'll have a look and wish you good luck here on Lemmy!

To be fair, it's another level on Reddit compared to here

Suscriptions and block liste are transferred in two clicks via the settings. For jour history just mention the other account in jour bio.

Feel free to start your own, to be honest I feel it's like the only major language missing now, as we have PHP with Mbin, Rust with Lemmy, Python with Piefed and Java with Sublinks

You know what, they just seem so pushy lately about Nitro and stuff that I didn't even get the joke

Could you create an archive.is link that I could use instead?

Thank you for your valuable comment.

I believe there are some others in other languages.

There is Mbin in PHP!

Happy to be part of that very select subgroup

Additionally I think that having a single huge lemmy instance is not great for the architecture of the fediverse as a whole and even if there were no changes planned or being considered. I think that many instances hosting communities is preferable to having large ones like lemmy.ml and lemmy.world.

May I ask why you didn't move to another generalist instance? It's a two clicks operation now to export and import settings from the settings menu

Typical inertia I would say.

Some people commended but forgot about it. Some others didn't actually want to support. A few might be betting on other platforms rather than Lemmy.

I'm not really that surprised.

Hello, thank you for your comment!

I agree with most of it, except the following.

In other words, even if you’re super interested in french cinema, there is no need to centralize all users interested in this topic on a single french cinema instance.

The local feed is still important for people to discover new communities. There is a reason most of the French speakers on Lemmy are on Jlai.lu, it's because it allows them to find other French speaking communities more easily. I say this for French, but https://literature.cafe is the same for books, and https://programming.dev for programming.

Otherwise, the local feed is wasted, and with the issues we currently have with discoverability of communities, it definitely helps.

you can’t bring those people over if they never see posts or content from the Fediverse

It's still possible. Reddit didn't became popular because it federated with Digg.

When Lemmy will become the reference for human provided answers, people will join. How fast it will happen depends on how bad the experience on Reddit becomes.

https://shreddit.com/ ?

I agree. I've seen cases of harassment before when one person would block the other, but then the blocked person would comment on most of the blocker comments to harass them further.

Strong agree
