When you say ‘your instance’, do you mean that you are hosting an instance seperate from lemmy.ml?
If so I think I’m facing the same issue over on my instance. Its a real problem for discovery, and I’m not entirely sure I’ve got federation set up correctly.
I think the ‘discovery’ aspect of lemmy might have some issues. Its not particularly easy to get connected into the federation (it basically has to be done manually), as far as I can tell.
I think the fediverse will be better supported by niche interests like lemmygrad.ml, or like wallstreets.bet. Smaller fiefdoms that focus pretty narrowly on niche interests, but that can be interesting to other groups in the fediverse. More ‘tribal’ and less monolithic than reddit. We’ve also already see how problematic that monolithic tendency of web-3.0 can be (centralized control via reddit; crashing of lemmy.ml).
SO I think if you are super into gardening, you should find a gardening lemmy for your home base, and federate out from there. I just wish cross-federation community discover was easier.
I saw the reply they had. Interesting point about “We don’t use your API so we didn’t agree to the TOS of your API. Also there is no ‘we’, since we don’t host invictus; simply develop it as a product”
I’m not sure. Try searching for [email protected].
I’m still learning the whole federation thing.
If you looking for a degnerate alternative to WSB, consider signing up to wallstreetbets. Also if you can help with promotion/ modding/ content, could really use help. No theta gang.
I dont think reddit survive this and I sure as sheet dont think they’ll allow subs like wsb to persist.
The end coming through with a bang.
You might consider looking at invidious.
It wraps up youtube content such that you see 0 ads, have 0 tracking, and a much better overall experience. As well it lets you connect to other content like stuff hosted on peertube.
defederated
I’m not sure I understand what defederated means in this context. Can you explain it?
Invidious is the most obvious. Its FOSS wrapper but it also lets you watch peertube and other federated content.
Jokes on them. I’m already on invidious.
Yeah that would be better behavior. Or maybe the comments should go through but only on the side that still wants to be federated (considering a copy is made on both instances).
This federated infighting prob hurting new instance growth more than anything. I also don’t like the tendency towards monoliths, which is what made reddit an issue to begin with.
