I never got into mastodon because I couldn’t connect multiple instances. I like this a lot about Lemmy so far (just here for a few minutes though).

Reading about the fediverse got me thinking. What other use cases could you think of? Maybe outside social media?

Would a fediverse password manager be more or less secure than some company owned pm?

How about “clones” of other social media like FB and Insta, TikTok?

What about a blogging community like Medium?

Other ideas?

    Sadly my provider won’t let that happen. Except I pay for it. Or are you not talking about the public IP?

        Yeah, in Germany if you don’t have Internet over cable you get a flexible IP. Not sure how it is with ftth which we will get in a few weeks.

            Well it’s a little complicated. I have a router, but there are several different ways to get internet to your home where I live.

            1. (default and oldest way) through the telephone network of cables and your phone cable that comes into your house
            2. Cable TV cable (coax) that comes into your house (I currently only have Sat TV here, and no cable
            3. LTE/5G
            4. FTTH is currently rolled out in smaller cities and I will get it in a few weeks.

              Huh. That all seems wildly complicated to me but thats just since I don’t live with the system.
