I haven't tried it, but I did see fly-lemmy which used fly.io.

Eh, don't be so sure.

Email is often drawn as something similar to the fediverse. ... but if you've ever tried to run a small Mailserver, you'll quickly find that "the big corps" have created a walled garden that'll keep the "small fish" out.

It's all based on what the big players view as your "reputation". This is based on proprietary metrics (usually how many emails you send), but your reputation will determine if the email is delivered or not.

You can find more information here.

... but the point is that one big corps consolidate and reach the size (in terms of traffic/content) like Hotmail, Gmail, yahoo, etc - they will not hesitate to squeeze out the smaller fediverse fish to force them into paying to use the bigger pond.

Sadly ... this is just business as usual.

I was also using jerboa (and beehaw hasn't upgraded, either).

I ended up exploring other apps and are really liking thunder (it reminds me of baconreader).

Another honorable mention is liftoff.

Tbh, I don't know why jerboa was released as "stable" but with a forced server upgrade. It seems a bit strong armed. Anyway, I'm thrilled that other applications exist, so I get the continued functionality I want w/o needing the admins to accommodate me.

Oh, I hope this (eventually) works with Skyrim VR!

I'm in the same boat. I limit myself to a superficial check of Reddit twice a day (morning and evening).

Some of the nitch subs haven't migrated and I get the feeling that the "world news" I get from Lemmy is either lagging or flat out missing content. Maybe, I haven't found an "unbiased" Lemmy world news group.

I didn't know it was open source until 2018. According to the article, they needed to go close-sourced due to the video player (lol)

... But you can find the original source code at: https://github.com/reddit-archive/reddit1.0

I really wonder if this is the code for https://old.reddit.com

Well... it does have an MIT license (meaning you can use it for anything)

It would be wickedly funny to see a Lemmy frontend with a Reddit 1.0 theme.

lol ... and what was the average life expendency in the 70s?

I foresee many discussion threads in Lemmy/here being crossposted in /r/startrek (aka: Malicious Compliance)

This appears now be "sold out"

Yup, that's me. I'm trying to make lemmy my new home and limit my access to Reddit (vote with your feet). I still check Reddit for the polls and a few nitch communities that don't exist on Lemmy (yet)

Wow, is that how Lemmy really works? Beehaw disables the downvote, but since I federated through it - I cannot downvote anywhere in the fediverse.

I wonder if this means that people from outside of Beehaw can downvote threads posted in Beehaw (anyone is welcome to downvote my Beehaw responses - in the name of science, mind you :)

I'm really going to have to think about hosting my own Lemmy server. It sounds like whoever's site you register through has quiet a bit of control (especially outside of their respective site).

You mentioned that you're hosting your own Lemmy server. Have you had any issues accessing or being accessed by others in the fediverse?
