I love how the Fediverse/ActivityPub prevents region blocking from being effective (lemmy.world)

Lemmy.ml, the most popular instance fo Lemmy out there, is not accessible in my country unless I use a VPN. But, I can subscribe to any community that exists on lemmy.ml from here and even post on those communities from this account.

I love this aspect of Lemmy.

Well, early days I suppose. Now they're both receiving a lot more attention I hope that these sorts of issues will get addressed. If you enjoy the pain I hope you've checked out how it all works with kbin too!

    @mykl Right now I think that I'll leave the ActivityPub for now.
    Is easier just to make an account in lemmy.ca and in kbin.social than trying to reply comments/toots, find a way make the comment in first place, to try to follow someone and also to find a way to save content from another social network.

    Also ActivityPub allows me to make a post on Lemmy from Mastodon on any of their "subreddits/communities".
    The issue I can only post and reply 500 characters. Which is very annoying.
