Weekly Deutsch Practice - Week 1

Hello lemmites! I decided that a great way to get some use out of this community while it gathers steam is to have a mega thread where people can simply come and practice their German with people on similar skill levels. If you're a more fluent speaker, and see any mistakes in someone else's sentences, feel free to correct them and possibly explain why.

I'm thinking how it'll go is I'll have a prompt for the week that you can answer and I'll try to reply to you, or you can totally ask your own question, or just comment about whatever is going on in your life, or going through your head.

I'll get the ball rolling: Was ist deine Lieblingsstadt in Deutschland? Warum?

Meine Lieblingsstadt in Deutschland ist Düsseldorf, weil meine Familie von dort stammt.

German: A place for people learning German and German speakers to discuss the language.

The German community I have made is exactly what the title says: A place for people learning German and German speakers to discuss the language.

If you are learning German and have any grammar questions, pronunciation questions, etc. this is the place to ask.

If you simply want to share your journey of learning German, this community is also the right place to do it.

Anything related to the German language belongs in this community. Feel free to join it, though note I am quite an inexperienced moderator as of now.

Welcome to c/German on lemmy.world!

Hey there everybody, I'm DVD.

I came to the Fediverse/Lemmy recently after the mass exodus from, competitors, like I'm sure many of you have.

I've been knees deep in learning the German Language since October, and I wanted a community to help myself and others along in this process of language learning, which I noticed Lemmy lacked, so I created c/German.

I should preface this community by saying that I am probably the least qualified person to run a community such as this. I would probably fail the Goethe B1 Exam for German, and I have never moderated any community before, not on Lemmy nor its competitors.

But, I saw the need for a place like this, and I stepped up to the plate. If you are seeing this and are interested, feel free to join. If the place isn't quite as lively as you thought it would be, try creating a post or commenting on some existing ones. I promise to work on community engagement as this place (hopefully) grows.

With that being said, also message me if you are interested in any moderator roles. I will gladly accept others who are willing to make sure this community stays on track, and remains toxic-free.

What resources are available to help create a third party service for Lemmy?

Guten Tag Lemmites.

I'm new to Lemmy, and an overall novice in the world of programming. I noticed though that many people cited the complexity of the federated system at first as an initial turnoff, and I couldn't help but realize that Lemmy could reach a much greater critical mass if third party services stepped in to streamline the process.

This is where I took inspiration from many posts I've seen on here, and I want to create a simple app, website, addon, whatever works best, where curated "bundles" of communities from all major instances are packaged together and have their own feed. Such as a gaming "bundle" that takes the major gaming communities from major instances. You get the point.

What resources should I know of before using this? I know that I will have to learn the Rust language for this. I may be way, way in over my head. I've never really messed with web development too much outside of a basic website of HTML, CSS, and minimal JavaScript. What's the general pipeline of something like this? And what resources are there in terms of Lemmy API/source code?

Sorry if this question seems vague, I wish I knew more to help specify it haha.
