How would you feel about Lemmy being able to pull in hashtags from the Fediverse? (lazysoci.al)

So you could subscribe communities to hashtags and have it displays toots and pictures from that hashtag in the Lemmy UI

I use iceshrimp. I think lemmy is missing a lot from hashtag.

As i see :

Lemmy is not part of the fediverse but a lemmyverse. It lacks connection with other software and other software lacks connection to lemmy. I think we need to build a bridge between microblog and forum.

In the french fediverse community, our main base of users come from mastodon. And i would like to reach them.

I saw, in activitypub the ability to share and post whatever is your software. A complete freedom where you just need one account.

There is differents purpose, but i do think offering people both is good : microblog and forum. And i think the fediverse will slowly move toward that. With a UI for individual and other for community.

And hashtags do both :

It allows post to be discoverable by other apps in the fediverse.
It allows people to search and find any post of comment on a related topic.

So, i think piefed will grow a lot.

Have you tried Mbin?

Last time i tried kbin/mbin it was messy, i couldn't get a graps on their UI and their name.

If mbin remove lot things it would be easier, we only need two tabs to ensure the best intertorability between fediverse software.

Edit : i just went there, i think there is less option in the menu but i can't compare their evolution.

I notice Mbin is very similar to iceshrimp. Once the rewritting of iceshrimp in C is done, i think they will share lot conmon ground.

For now, i prefer piefed and their subcategorie.

Edit 2 : and the only french forum/reddit is jlai.lu so my choice are limited :)

Glad to hear that Mbin is less messy.

and the only french forum/reddit is jlai.lu so my choice are limited :)

You could access all of the Jlai.lu communities via Mbin

Not really trying to argue, just saying that diffent tools are for different folks. People who really want to bridge the microblogging and link aggregator parts of the Fedivers should probably use Mbin.

People who want the link aggregator with the most apps and web interfaces should use Lemmy.

Early adopters should give Piefed a try.

Well it will be hard for moderators if i'm the only one posting french content on an english server. ^^

I understand it better now, you are right, thank a lot for sharing your point of view. :)

So Lemmy should be my my choice due to its apps with moderation tool (jerboa, thunder). i mainly use my mobile to post content and moderate. I'm almost never in front of my computer.

As an app Tusky fit very well as it is able to manage mastodon and iceshrimp flawlessy. And tusky may support lemmy. Why ?

Iceshrimp plan to support lemmy in december 2024. So i'm curious to see how it will evolve because they also have a group tab as kbin/mbin called magazine. And they have a good relationship with tusky dev.

Currently, magazine isn't used a lot, but if i'm guessing it right, it will support lemmy community.

Communities moderators don't change because you see it from a different instance. I'm pretty sure none of the LW admins speak French, but there are plenty of users reading Jlailu communities from there

Let's hope 🤞

Well on tedomum, they argued a lot about it because they couldn't moderate an user that didn't speak their language. Very interesting topic. :)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Of course, but that was because those users wanted to host the communities on Tedomum.

In this scenario, it's different, I'm suggesting you to use fedia.io to access Jlailu communities.

The communities stay on Jlailu, the moderators are the same, but you can access both Jlailu and the mastoverse

Two months ago, I spent dozen hours setting up my alts account on peculiar.florist and mastodon...subcription, filters, contacts, keyword alert. They also act as whole a community with topics.

I just want to settle a bit. I moved a lot to mastodon, pixelfed, lemmy, kbin... :)

Just to give you a rough idea, i spent lot time building these list that are a mix of lemmy and mastodon. And when i did that, i configured tusky.

It takes time. If it was one year ago, i would easily change software. For now i'm waiting that fediverse software improve.

So it won't happen until next year. :)
