I was a moderator of a small but a very active subreddit. Im interested in history and understand that engaging, commenting and finding good stuff is vital to grow the community.

It will be a pleasure to help moderate and grow this community ;)

I think it is very well explained. You don't need to go to other instance to follow them.

They are just merging with another community for convenience.

I don't get why are you so upset. It's not a big deal.

Also, you can create your own community in any instance you want.

What very old/unmaintained software do you still use today, and why? in c/[email protected]

I like to post to my WordPress blog from my desktop, so I use Open Live Writer. It's allow me the option to write without being connected to the Internet. I doubt it still in development.

So, a year from now the big instances will have lost all their users… in c/fediverse

I think their strategy is not gonna work. Meta is universally hated by everyone using the Fediverde now. The majority of Mastodon / Lemmy users are here looking for alternatives.

Also, I dont think Facebook and Instagram users are looking for a Twitter alternative.

Also, Meta is good buying stuff (Instagram, WhatsApp) but they have a history of trying new apps that are never successful.

I predict Meta Threads will close in a couple of months.

Yo sospecho de sus intenciones de participar de forma federada... ¿Economías al no tener que desarrollar un backend desde cero? ¿Piensan dominar el mercado? De todas formas Facebook ha tenido otros fracasos con nuevas aplicaciónes que han intentado lanzar desde cero (WhatsApp e Instagram fueron adquiridos). Me parece que los usuarios de Instagram y Facebook no están interesados en una aplicación como Twitter y que los usuarios en el Fediverde jamás utilizarían una aplicación de Meta. Creo que en par de meses escucharemos de su cierre debido a la pica acogida.

Quienes están a cargo de esta instancia? Cual es e objetivo? Mola pero no quiero crear una cuenta para que desaparezca en unos meses 😅

That was a good read. Thanks for sharing.

Lemmy.world has grown by about 66.6% since reddit's API shutdown in c/fediverse

I'm using Jerboa. Its good and its very similar to Bacon Reader. I'm just missing the bacon reader setting "hide read posts" and the hability to swipe to navigate and read posts.

I was using Bacon Reader for Android for the last 10 years. For me it was the only way of using Reddit. I'm now checking Lemmy. I hope we can build a vibrant community here. I'm not coming back to Reddit.
