Discord is such an awful alternative to choose.

Agree. Itβs good for small communities that want to have an ongoing conversation but itβs horrible for large communities. No easy way to scan content, find info, or even engage in a conversation.
It's been going downhill at an increasing pace lately.
Have to agree. Discord added a forum post view to popular communities which is sorta like Reddit, but not really. For really large communities, the noise from high traffic channels is tough to filter out.
Just took a glimpse and saw that AITA is listed to have migrated to kbin. But when I check it they only have 30 subscribers whereas the lemmy.world /c has over 600 subs.
Does this site reflect where the oroginal mods went? Or did every sub announce where theyβre officially migrating to?
(I am aware that i can see all the comms in my feed. Iβm just wondering how this site works)
NTA :)
Yeah, I'm kind of wondering where this data is coming from... for instance it lists /r/sysadmin moved to sysadmins.zone... but who decided that? There's literally nothing about that website anywhere on /r/sysadmin on reddit, and that page only has like 20 users on it whereas the sysadmin community here on lemmy has around 1,500 people on it.
Selfhosted for example is pretty populated here. But itβs not the βofficialβ one and mods decided to host a custom forum (nearly no members last time i checked)
I'm new to Lemmy/The Fediverse but I am a little confused on how to use this website. So when I go to that website I see links to a bunch of places. I personally created my account on lemmy.world, but all of the links on that website go to other websites that I'm not logged into and I can't use my lemmy.world login to sign into (can I?).
So to use the website, I have to go to a second tab to http://lemmy.world/communities# and then search to find the same websites that are on that page.
Am I getting that right, or is there a way to use links in the fediverse to open onto their equivalent on my host? Hope I'm asking this right but I'm very confused about how to handle things like external sites and links.
you can simply mutate the url from https://other.instance/c/community to https://your.instance/c/[email protected] but yeah, it's a pain. It's a good opportunity for a simple browser extension or script that does some URL rewriting.
I found that on mobile, Jerboa has some instance url associations for major instances and that means that links can open in that, where you're logged in to your account on your home instance, and it handles it. but it's been hit-and-miss for me as to whether it'll open in the app or continue in mobile browser.
Most subs migrate to Lemmy + kbin :
Thats brilliant, thank you
Design is fantastic
Please keep updating
You can contribute to the list
Nosleep when?
I actually quite like the design, very clean and neat.
and fast
I really wish there was a way to save posts. I guess this comment will have to do!
A folder of bookmarks also works. It's old fashioned of course...
If you upvote the post, it will show in your favorites
If you're on mobile, Jerboa on Android allows you to save posts. I don't remember what the iOS equivalent app is but I've heard it's good.
A good place to submit the record if you are mods on either side
Pretty neat.
This is great! Thanks to the creator!
Very helpful, thank you!
THANK YOU! This is just what I was looking for.
Ahh looks like it requires it to be minimally active, I Hope my version of character forge takes off but it's also a really slow reddit to begin with!
This is great info, I'll be sharing it around !
How to add one to the list if it isnβt advertised on the old subreddit?
