It is a very bad thing! Do tell me the community name. For research purposes, of course! So I know what to look out for, y'know? And also to tell my friend who also wants nothing with it
Oh, definitely. Fucked up shit brings fucked up people. As for me, I'm never getting nowhere near those sites again. My curiosity is strong, but not that much.
Ridiculous. I am definitely not going to be going there or bookmarking it. In fact, I'm going to go there right now just so I can see exactly why I won't be going there.
Is there a simple name that is a good catch-all? Preferably one that's two syllables? Lemmy is such a simple name, much like Reddit or Twitter. Fediverse and threadiverse i feel just complicate it all
I like the name Lemmy the most personally, but not every instance is necessarily running Lemmy right? Or are all the different sites like beehaw and kbin and such also running Llemmy?

Most instances are running Lemmy (the software). Kbin (the software) is an alternative to Lemmy (the software), though they can speak to one another, because they both use the ActivityPub protocol (same as Mastodon, PeerTube, Pixelfed, and so on). Kbin is much younger than Lemmy, but eventually more instances running Kbin will show up.
But kbin isn't like a fork or derivative of Lenny right? It's entirely different? So referring to everything as a whole as Lemmy isn't really right cause kbin doesn't even use Lemmy
They were for a few weeks, until today. I'm commenting from Kbin right now.
Turns out lemmy.ml admins had blocked a lot of bots and "kbinBot" (which is the useragent name used by Kbin for federation requests) was inadvertently among the blocked bots. The lemmy.ml admins took a long time to get it fixed, but it finally works again now.
I dislike "Fediverse" and "Threadiverse", because I feel like Meta has left a bad taste in people's mouths with the previews of their Metaverse, and I imagine that's probably the first thing most people think of when they hear "Fediverse". I think they'd be fine names on their own, if not for that.
Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemmings! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemming that burns your house down!
Saying fedi normally includes things like mastodon, peertube, Pixelfed, etc. It doesn’t really convey that someone is specifically talking about the federated Reddit alternatives.
Then it's a bad analogy. Kbin and Lemmy work independently. Linux and GNU are part of the same stack. Like it's not remotely comparable. They are also written in two different languages so I doubt they share that much code on the backend at least.
I created accounts for both. I found the UI better but clearly the advantage of lemmy is to have apps already. Like in Linux choice is a great thing and if it makes the community bigger, why not? So peace and coexist!
Holy shit, Linux memes trending in the global memes community? I belong here.
From my experience managing Linux folk it depends on the individual and the time of day.
Both lol
I think a lot of people here are more technical and thus more likely to use or know Linux.
What the fuck is a lemmy
The lead singer of Motorhead. Rest In Power King.
Everything.
Threadiverse sounds like what Meta/Threads would call the fediverse lol
You can be damn sure they've snapped up the domains.
You say furry porn like it's a bad thing.

Every day we stray farther from gods grace
If God created everything and didn't want me looking at furry porn, why did he create it and give me a desire to look at it?
That thing is tame compared to the horrors that await deeper in the Internet. If God wants to smite Earth, it will be for way worse reasons that that.
For some reason the sites deeper in the internet that contain that sort of thing usually contain a ton of assholes as well. Not sure why.

There's a lemmy instance for everything
No posts yet though :(. Someone change that.
Thank you for the laughs
2016 Twitter screenshotsI snorted audibly on that one.

How about Lemmy?
How about kbin? /s
I like the name Lemmy the most personally, but not every instance is necessarily running Lemmy right? Or are all the different sites like beehaw and kbin and such also running Llemmy?
Beehaw is another Lemmy instance. Kbin in a different piece of software but it uses the ActivityPub protocol so it can interact with Lemmy.
Most instances are running Lemmy (the software). Kbin (the software) is an alternative to Lemmy (the software), though they can speak to one another, because they both use the ActivityPub protocol (same as Mastodon, PeerTube, Pixelfed, and so on). Kbin is much younger than Lemmy, but eventually more instances running Kbin will show up.
But kbin isn't like a fork or derivative of Lenny right? It's entirely different? So referring to everything as a whole as Lemmy isn't really right cause kbin doesn't even use Lemmy
Correct, it's completely different software.
But lemmy.ml are blocking kbin instance and kbin bots 😩
They were for a few weeks, until today. I'm commenting from Kbin right now.
Turns out lemmy.ml admins had blocked a lot of bots and "kbinBot" (which is the useragent name used by Kbin for federation requests) was inadvertently among the blocked bots. The lemmy.ml admins took a long time to get it fixed, but it finally works again now.
Hmm... I will try again. Because some like fedia.io still blocked... smh..
I dislike "Fediverse" and "Threadiverse", because I feel like Meta has left a bad taste in people's mouths with the previews of their Metaverse, and I imagine that's probably the first thing most people think of when they hear "Fediverse". I think they'd be fine names on their own, if not for that.
Fediverse really sounds like the metaverse but for feds... Not exactly a term i want to associate with
Welcome to the Federaleverse 😎 lol the fed-a-verse is normal social media where they have teams dedicated to responding to subpoenas
Joins furry-loli-snuff community in the Federalverse
"Why don't you take a seat over there?"
Kablammy/Kblemmy maybe?
And our new logo will be an exploding lemming.
That would be funny as fuck and I fully support it.
Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemmings! I'm gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemming that burns your house down!
I miss that game.
The 'verse
You can say threadiverse without explaining the fedi part.
most people call it fedi
Saying fedi normally includes things like mastodon, peertube, Pixelfed, etc. It doesn’t really convey that someone is specifically talking about the federated Reddit alternatives.
fair, but they are all part of the same network. I'm not using lemmy, kbin or mastodon. but I can still send messages here
Fedi isn't too bad either. Is there not anything else that goes by that name though?
Not that I'm aware of. I think it's just short for fediverse
We're all Fedinauts! 👨🚀
Quality shitpost
Anyone else getting "Gnu + Linux" vibes?
thatsthejoke.jpg
I can't imagine getting the reference and not getting the reference at the same time.
Live vicariously from this person!
I am, and I gotta tell you, it's great.
I can. Getting the hint/not getting the hint was exactly my MO while dating my wife.
What was the hint?
Nothing much, what's gnu with you!?
Linux be friends
Oh no the gnu/linux thing got a new pal!
Long live Richard M. Stallman (GNU+Jesus)
Ah shit. Here we go again...
I thought Kbin was much newer than lemmy. So Kbin would be the new stepchild?
Yes, since the analogue is GNU/Linux. Though I don't know if Kbin shares any code with Lemmy.
Then it's a bad analogy. Kbin and Lemmy work independently. Linux and GNU are part of the same stack. Like it's not remotely comparable. They are also written in two different languages so I doubt they share that much code on the backend at least.
Yup, I completely agree!
This meme where a stretch to begin with, trying to fit a square peg in a round hole.
It doesn't, kbin is a PHP meme.
Paging the doctors, Stallman needs his medication now.
Family sticks together.
I created accounts for both. I found the UI better but clearly the advantage of lemmy is to have apps already. Like in Linux choice is a great thing and if it makes the community bigger, why not? So peace and coexist!
