Sync and Boost officially are.

Infinity for Everything (Fediverse) is on GitHub.

wefwef and Memmy are starting to feel like Apollo already.

Connect seems to be inching closer to Relay with each update, and Jerboa gives off RiF vibes.

People need to post about this on reddit more to perhaps encourage the other devs to do the same; might've actually worked for Boost cuz the dev didn't originally plan to port it to Lemmy it seems

Use and recommend lemm.ee, lemmy.one, and vlemmy.net to others

Seriously, stop recommending large servers when lemmy hasn't been optimized for that yet. The point of decentralization is spreading out and still being connected; let's not waste that advantage.

Mastodon is already pretty active, and is also part of the fediverse

wefwef.app, Thunder, Connect, and Liftoff are already amazing btw. Boost for Lemmy and Sync for Lemmy are in the works.

Jerboa actually gives off RiF vibes for me, though it's definitely still its own thing.

On pc use this to make it look a bit more like old.reddit. I hope tweaks like this get combined into a single extension later like RES

This needs to be integrated into Lemmy asap; really hurts discoverability and makes comms look way smaller than they are to new users.

This, instance migration, and assigning new users to good general instances (that arent overloaded) like lemm.ee or vlemmy.net upon registration (letting them change it of course) so they don't need to know about instances would go a long way to being user friendly.

Absolutely agree that instances featured in http://join-lemmy.org/ should all follow those basic rules:

Active moderation against racism, sexism, homophobia and transphobia

Concerning to see that both vlemmy.net and lemmy.world are federated with them; I'm mainly on these.

That definition comes from a false myth; a documentary made a bunch of lemmings fall to their deaths and purposefully misrepresented it iirc, fucked up.

It's time we reclaim our name and honour!

YTA- wait sorry wrong comm

I was expecting something really dark; glad I was wrong lol

Isn't that the whole point though? Not relying on a single entity by spreading out, but still being connected?

Fragmentation would be fixed by just integrating lemmyverse.net's functionality into lemmy itself (like in this github issue), allowing users to see the true user count/activity of comms and incentivise them to join the most popular one.

Needs to be done asap imo; comm discoverability is not good right now and is probably the single biggest hurdle for new users

Fyi the real member count is almost 20k; the sidebar only shows how many are subscribed to it from your instance.

It shows 360 from vlemmy.net for example.

B-but lemmings...

It opening back up before the big wave of users on July 1st is also very unfortunate.

Subs should stay in protest at least until a week after Sync for Lemmy and some of the many apps in development release in a few weeks imo

We're just getting started. Sync for Lemmy and Memmy's (heavily inspired by Apollo) release in a few weeks will go a long way for accessibility, and will likely already offer better UX than reddit.

No doubt contributors in the GitHub will add similar UX features as those fantastic apps once they're out.

People be forgetting the entire point of decentralization and recommend a single overloaded instance when everything's connected anyway 😔

Join and recommend smaller general instances like lemm.ee, vlemmy.net, and lemmy.one at random instead. Smaller servers have been upgraded for the surge of users too you know

Mostly, yeah.

But some communities in instances that haven't been accessed by anyone from your own yet won't show up iirc (shouldn't be much of an issue on popular instances).

And the ones that do - only show the number of subscribers from your own instance, and not the overall count. For now at least.

You can use lemmyverse.net to search across all instances and see the total sub count. I hope this gets integrated into Lemmy itself at some point.

Also, try wefwef.app, Connect for Lemmy, and Liftoff for Lemmy; they're also great.

Hell yeah, it got alot of people to Lemmy.

I'm very curious how reddit will handle it; they would probably hesitate openly supporting a piracy sub by putting in new mods
