In this video I show off some different Lemmy instances and discuss why the lemmyverse and even some individual Lemmy instances can become a better alternative to Reddit.
I dunno how the community collectively feels about Mental Outlaw in sum, but there’s content of his that has its way of piquing my interests. He just put up a video showcasing Lemmy, some instances, and the mechanics/interactions between them. Probably old news for many of us, but I think it’s always pretty cool to see Lemmy get its mention.
Beehaw specifically got its mention through the video and he briefly touches on Beehaw’s defederation from sh.itjust.works. I’m pretty confident he disagrees with the decision, but his opinion and description of things struck me as balanced and respectable enough. I’d wager that a more precise description of the intrigue would likely take as much time as the video itself.
Any thoughts on Mental Outlaw’s coverage of either Lemmy in sum or Beehaw? Anyone else seen creators they keep their eyes on give mention of Lemmy?
I as a user can go to a community I do not subscribe to and block it. I’m not sure if that’s exactly what you are meaning. Either way I find that this is the appropriate measure for anything from spammy/annoying communities to ones that are just toxic. I think we should all be more concerned with curating our experience to what is useful to us instead of worrying about what others can see. Otherwise we begin the creep back towards centralization - which is great until it isn’t.
I am talking about an instance A federating with not the full second instance B. I asked if A can set to be able to see only a not-whole fraction of B.
