I might move again. (Or not)

I moved from Lemmy.ml because I liked the name of Lemmy.world and it ran a newer Lemmy version which meant I could make communities. I moved from Lemmy.world because they defederated from piracy communities they didn’t even host (but for some reason still kept the small piracy community they DID host) From thelemmy.club because I couldn’t see the Hackintosh community from there (probably defederated) Now I spent some time looking on join-lemmy.org and checked out some instances and this (lemy.lol) instance seemed good, so I chose that.

Oha,

i fucking love decentralized services

Master,

Can someone explain like im twelve please.

We are fucking tiny, and everyone as far as I know is federated with us because they can’t be bothered. Our server is run well, though we do get a bit of unscheduled downtime (though the biggest one was due to a fucking hurricane)

Schmoo,

slrpnk.net 🤝 pawb.social

federated via apathy

MossyFeathers,

Everyone forgets about pawb.social too. Even furries seem to forget it exists lol.

AVincentInSpace,

Furries unite!

(we’re not as ignored as yiffit.net though)

wolfshadowheart,

Kusimulkku,

Hexbear always has the funniest takes, I give them that

Sky_Lobster,

Honest question… What’s the difference? I just signed up with .world without really doing much looking around first…

Some instances are running on better servers than others, have staff that fix issues quicker and attend to updates sooner.

For example, .world is still on v18 while the rest of the threadiverse has mostly moved on to v19.

Some instances defederate certain other instances, so in some cases you might end up finding that a community you subbed to gets disappeared by the admins of your instance (lemmy.ml did this to ani.social a while back). Whether there are valid reasons goes case by case, sopuli.xyz for example blocks instances that are for porn, and I like it that way.

Though outward federation is a bit borked on there atm, so I’m using my alts…

But really, it doesn’t matter that much. If the grass looks greener, you can hop over the fence and see for yourself, and then hop right back if it turns out it wasn’t.

fmstrat,

While I’m not on world, I also hold off on upgrades. Lemmy is still Alpha, after all.

I only moved from World because I wanted a smaller instance (and maybe because of stability). And from thelemmy.club because it blocked the Hackintosh community. And from lemmy.ml, which was my first one I moved because I heard the alligations that the admin was pro-chinese government.

“Allegations”. Nice.

fmstrat,

Moderation and politics. Many in Lemmy don’t like ML’s stance on issues, including banning and moderating dissenting opinions. World won’t defederate from Threads. Etc. Despite no major user difference, Lemmy is a much more “active” vs passive community in reinforcing their beliefs in what’s right. It’s why many migrated here to begin with.

TserriednichThe4th,

Threads?

CyberEgg, (edited )

Meta’s/Zuckerberg’s microblogging service, also runs on Activity Pub (the protocol that allows instances of any given service to communicate with each other, basically the backbone protocol of the Fediverse).
Many Fediverse instances decided to defederate Threads because of who’s behind it and because they’re afraid Meta’s ging to do to AP what Google did to XMPP.

fmstrat,

To add: and because they don’t want the content they create to become a money maker for a company that allows abusive organizations to stay online.

Meh, just need to find an instance that seems friendly and stable enough then try to keep it afloat.

I think I’ll stay here if there are no problems. That’s why I used the word “might”

havid_dume,

One of us. One of us.

Oh no :(
