A community dedicated to fediverse news and discussion.
Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".
Getting started on Fediverse;
Reminds me of how Thunderbird does Matrix, IRC, Pidgin, RSS and others.
I think there is room for something like this.
My only request would be that I can have filters in my feed to remove posts with certain words or emojis or profiles with descriptions including emojis of people I don't want to converse with online.
Yea. The basic idea feels like something that's kinda been forgotten in the wake of big-social's long dominance and vanilla-ification of online activity.
I even once asked the dev of a popular mastodon app who was expressing interesting in making a lemmy app too ... "why not just add lemmy compatibility to the mastodon app".
Their response was that they couldn't see what that would look like or how it would work.
It's all just text messages ... I don't think this is hard!
Huh?
I think this is the next big step for fediverse adoption. Mobile apps can easily obfuscate the different servers, but an integrated browser solution would be huge.
Like imagine commenting on a blog directly with your Lemmy account, without first navigating to your instance. No more "please link to the original source".
