Following @lemmy was a bad idea. It’s literally every comment with subpar context. Which is fine, the mental models of twitter and reddit are different, after all, but it’s not digestible from the stream as it’s just an excessive amount of noise.

Will be interesting to see where it lands!
I agree, I see you’re running your own instance, I’m holding off on that until something like SSO comes online for the Fediverse and I can run my own ‘identity server’ to log into whatever apps I wish.
‘Communities’ is the Lemmy term for subreddits, although I think it gets referred to as a ‘Group’ in Mastodon and a ‘Magazine’ in kbin. Early days I can tell, maybe as things get more established a unified language will emerge.
@Compgeek oauth for fediverse. Oh boy, that sounds like so much fun /s
Not an easy problem to solve by any stretch, which is why I assume core functionality is the focus before doing it, but better than the multiple persona issue we have at the moment.
In my early exploration I have 1 Lemmy and 1 Mastodon account, but all my eggs are in one basket should it go offline. If I wanted to have choice of even 2 instances for each service, I’m now looking at 4 ‘handles’.
Not a fun problem to solve, but long term it’s not a great problem to have. At least if I can run my own identity server I don’t need to trust a single entity outside of me with my online identity.
Sounds fair. I think I gonna go deploy some lemmy and poke around it then.
> Federation is not set up by default. You can add this this federation block to your lemmy.hjson, and ask other servers to add you to their allowlist.
Bleh. So it’s not federated by default, meaning there’s very little reason to even spin up an instance?
