Selfhost everything

That's not going to happen on Lemmy. It is technically possible but it's very highly unlikely.

Fuck reddit. I hope to see reddit get shut down one day.

They should reverse this decision. This is not good.

The only good move is to leave

This is truly a successor to Reddit but I think getting more people to migrate is crucial. Still not a lot of people have heard about this. We need to bring more people here.

Advertisements aren't coming to Lemmy. It's never going to happen. Why is everyone talking about it like it's inevitable. If you think that's going to happen, you haven't been in communities like this enough.

I became more active here because I don't feel like I'm contributing to a corporation. This is an open source software run by people who are just doing it because they like doing it.

You will see all comments on "misguided.ml"

I don't have any issues with Lemmings. But I prefer lemmers and lemmians.

It will also make more people aware of lemmy

Yes. Fuck reddit

Because beehaw will block sync attempts from lemmy.world. Users can't directly connect to other instances. The instance they're on connects with other instances and fetches data in the background.

libreddit

I think it's a combination of things. There are real users who have migrated to Lemmy because of reddit's horrible treatment of its users and there are also bots being created but that's normal on the internet.

Where is it? Can you give a link?

I ask the question, "Why do we exist?"

Unfortunately you have block each community individually at this moment.

Liftoff

it is, indeed!

Sh.itjust.works as Shit just works Lemmy.world as lemmy world Lemmy.ml as lemmy ml Lemmy.one as lemmy one Lemmy.ee as Lemmee lemmy.blahaj.zone as blahaj lemmy.fmhy.ml as fmhy feddit.de as feddit

Yes! https://lemmit.online only mirrors posts but not comments

Comments are often more valuable than posts. Keeping an archive of posts and comments on Lemmy can be valuable.

Can we do that for comments?

I don't think so. It will have all comments including comments from Meta.

"The only good move is to leave."

Completely agree

Lemmy is open source software that anyone can run on their own computers. People can't run their own reddit because its source code is closed. When a person runs lemmy on their server (computer), it has its own domain name (like google.com). Each domain name is a different instance, like lemmy.world or sh.itjust.works. These different instance can talk to each other and exchange posts and comments. This is called federation. This means you can create an account on lemmy.world and post comments and posts on sh.itjust.works. There are over 1000 instances. They can all talk to each other unless they choose not to. When an instance decides to block another instance, it is called defederation. Each instance is its own seperate thing and instances talk to each other in the background. Your account data is only stored on the instance you signed up on.
