Well, custom posting can mean all kinds of stuff. Text altering is just one thing. You can also give commands to the “bot” through hashtags. For example, one of the bots postpones the post for a certain amount of minutes via the first hashtag.

For example: “#5 this will be send in 5 minutes”

Currently not. But it will be added

So basically, Bluesky made custom feeds their rhing, I thought custom posts would be a nifty idea

I think multi-communities (which have already been improved for funding) will push Lemmy forward big time. https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/818

Problem: even with discovery, if your friends are on Threads or X, you still won’t find them on Mastodon. But its a step in the right direction.

Found it: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/17357923/9209304

On 0.19.3, you can:

• Limit the file upload size for local users through nginx configuration
• Disable incoming federated images through Lemmy configuration: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/config/defaults.hjson#L49 (set this to false)

Additional: On https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/docker/nginx.conf, there is an option “client_max_body_size” that you can set to 0.

Where can I find that option? Is it during instance-setup?

Well, both. I want to grow my instance a bit and also don’t want other people to post weird stuff in my communities

Interesting idea, thanks

Well written, interesting article.

Really getting momentum from Reddit will be tough though. Our main advantage is that we have the rest of the Fediverse as a potential user base, and existing forum apps that also activate apub; reducing network effects. If the Fediverse has momentum, so has the threadiverse.

I think thats unlikely. If the fediverse wants it or not, its growth is now heavily dependent on Meta

Yeah 👍

oh ok. Thanks :)

Thanks for the explanation. Didn’t realize Bluesky/AT is more like a fedi-washed version of ActivityPub rather than a real alternative …

I’m not sure; on the one hand, I think the fact that federation has become a unique selling point in micro-blogging is indicating a positive trend; so even if people join Bluesky its good for the Fediverse. On the other hand, if federated just becomes another buzz word that means nothing at all, while places where the real innovation is happening are drowned out, the window of opportunity could just close.

I think its a cool idea. I had a similar idea once: https://fungiverse.wordpress.com/2024/07/27/floo-network-anouncement/ but for the whole social web instead of just Lemmy.

Its interesting, it could get overwhelming easily though. Maybe this could be solved by only showing instances of a certain size?

:D good one. My new favourite take on nostr.

Even if it doesnt have much impact on activitypub-fedi, I think this is good news for the fediverse in general. X is loosing more and more relevancy and microblogging is more and more happening on federating services.

Its less open, but its definitely federated. Whether its a walled garden or not depends on the definition ;)

I’m not sure something like this will be the killer app for the Fediverse.

I think its more a transition-app as long as we have protocol wars. Most people are good with having access to the majority of the Fediverse and probably dont even know about the others.

Its still a great idea!

Regarding 2: you can also join the Fediverse this way with certain clients I believe. You are automatically signed up for lemmy.world for example
