  • Manually counted communities in the top 100 per instance and threw it into another pie chart (for active users / month)

    This also seems to be different than the results gotten from lemmyverse as the lemmyverse data hasnt been updated in 11 days according to that site

    A bunch of instances gained or lost some coms in the top 100 from variance of things happening in the last week

    (the eight instances that it decided to not give labels to that have 1 community are feddit.uk, lemmy.zip, beehaw.org, lemdro.id, ttrpg.network, lemmy.wtf, lemmy.blahaj.zone, mander.xyz)

    edit: updated graph to be more accurate users/month counts














  • Yeah lemmy currently doesn’t send notifications about moderation actions

    Some mod teams add it in through manually dming (which usually will happen here if someone on the admin team is warning, banning, etc. you (apart from site bans which the user wouldn’t be able to access their messages from) and its not just an obvious spammer or bot) or code their own systems to notify about actions

    Everything’s viewable in the modlog though and you can filter by yourself to see all actions made relating to you


  • Even with the disabled instances, communities that get added onto there reach a much larger section of people than external community browsers do as casual users that just check the site once a day or something and don’t pay attention to external sites can still stumble on them without knowing the federate site exists or needing to know explicit community names

    Ideally more instances would get added onto there but its still fine like this. Been getting some nice interactions and starting activity on new programming.dev communities





  • Rather than being limited to posts themselves it probably makes more sense to attach it to certain chunks of something. For example a block of code so that people copying the code to use in their own projects after receiving help actually have the license to do so rather than that just being verbal (could make it default to MIT No Attribution or some other license the community specifies). This same logic can be extended to images (although probably with no default for those since theres way too many possible cases)


  • Nothing would change about the community itself if it goes from lemmy to sublinks. Still accessible on the federation as normal and on version 0.1 the core features should have parity

    Reposting my comment I did before:

    Sublinks is a drop in replacement for lemmy. In version 0.1 nothing should really be different between the two apart from the default UI looking different

    For world Ruud commented about that before and nothings been decided currently on theyre going to handle it (I assume youll see some sort of post in their meta community way before anything happens)
