Why did lemmy.world defederate from fosstodon.org ? in c/support@lemmy.world
[–] spiritedpause@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

posting csm, or something else of that nature.

Fosstodon are just as vigilant against that kind of stuff, so I'd be surprised if it went under their radar and was posted to lemmy.world, but none of the other big mastodon instances had that problem.

I find it convenient and pretty cool that you can post to Lemmy from Mastodon by tagging the Lemmy community at the bottom of the Mastodon post.

I noticed a little over a month ago, this stopped working for me when I'd post from my fosstodon.org account and tag any community hosted on lemmy.world, and upon inspection, I see that Lemmy.world defederated from fosstodon.org

Threads.net isn't even defederated by lemmy.world, it's under the linked instances list, but fosstodon.org is blocked? What was the reasoning for that?

Lol I'm def not a reposting bot (I know, something a bot would say). I just accidentally screenshotted further down the page than I intended and it left out more recent posts by this admin.

Is this referring to kbin.social, or do all kbin instances work this way?

Ah didn't even notice it at the bottom, good catch!

What makes those block lists uncomfortable for you, genuinely curious?

Torrent search engines that crawl the DHT seem like they'd be the least likely to be taken down, as they don't host any torrent files or run their own trackers, they simply crawl the torrent DHT directly for magnet links.

Here are my two favorite DHT-based torrent search engines:

Lemmy is CEO-proof. After Digg, Reddit and Twitter, that term should be a thing in c/lemmyworld@lemmy.world

The only way I could see things going south is if corporations start buying popular instances

It's not quite the same, but Meta/Instagram is working on a Twitter competitor that will use ActivityPub and therefore is essentially one huge Fediverse instance that they're launching.

FYI, Lemmy and Kbin are Progressive Web Apps, meaning you can install them as regular apps to your phone's home screen in c/lemmyworld@lemmy.world

Agora – Follow your favorite topics from the Fediverse, Nostr, Bluesky, and Twitter (agorasocial.app)
 

The focus of Agora is on following the topics you’re interested in by finding posts tagged with those topics across different protocols/platforms.

While it's technically a nostr client, it allows you to also search for and follow posts pulled in from the Fediverse (through the native Mastodon/Lemmy/etc RSS feeds), from Twitter (through Nitter RSS feeds), and Bluesky (through bridged RSS feed) profiles.

This is what's awesome about open/decentralized protocols like ActivityPub, Nostr, and others, anyone can build their own client to connect to these networks, and automatically have access to all the content/communities on these platforms.

Hope you find it useful!
