Why is the wordpress logo in the Fediverse?

[-] [email protected] 27 points 4 months ago

it uses activitypub, but after the drama with cofounder mullenweg it's basically another asshole-controlled platform i would avoid

[-] [email protected] 11 points 4 months ago

Its open source, so just one fork of it, the main one currently, is asshole controlled. Thats a solvable issue with built in mechanisms to do so, and i recall part of the community is working on it.

That doesn't make wordpress any less federated.

[-] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago

Federation does not make something good, either.

The ActivityPub plugin itself is also owned by Automattic.

Anyway, WordPress sucks even without shithead Matt.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

I wonder if the plugin works with ClassicPress. Most are compatible.

As someone who has used Wordpress, it's a platform I would avoid.

[-] [email protected] 26 points 4 months ago

It does have some nice backend

[-] [email protected] 9 points 4 months ago

Thanks for the chuckle :)

The URL slug says "meth consumption". Neat typo!

[-] [email protected] 13 points 4 months ago

It is very nice indeed.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 4 months ago

I got Lemmy, mastodon, pixefed, next cloud, friendica... What are the other logos?

Also, is there a site that lists all the fediverse alternatives?

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

Bookwyrm, WordPress, Peertube, Writely, WordPress …

Mbin is becoming the New Zealand of the Threadiverse

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

Not even sure I'm mad about it.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

I'm on Fedia.io, which If I'm not mistaken is Mbin, was on Kbin before it spun out, and I wouldn't join a "Lemmy" instance if you paid me good hard green American money

[-] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago

and I wouldn’t join a “Lemmy” instance if you paid me good hard green American money

I'm curious to know why

[-] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

That's fair, that's the power of the Fediverse!

[-] [email protected] 13 points 4 months ago

According to https://mbin.fediverse.observer/list, there are only ~1000 people using Mbin total these days, compared to like Lemmy with 43k and Pixelfed with far more.

Also Mbin's primary claim to fame is connecting to both Lemmy and Mastodon, rather than being something on its own.

PieFed (with <200 users) is also overlooked for similar reasons, and Sublinks too (well, that one doesn't even exist yet:-).

Or think of it this way: Mbin gets represented twice by two different icons in the image! :-D

[-] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago

Wow, I didn't realize it was so small!

It's still my favorite though (love you Mbin).

[-] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

It's such a great project that Ernst started off for us all:-). Now I am excited more by what PieFed and Sublinks will offer in the future, but Mbin too - all 3 are amazing Lemmy alternatives to the Threadiverse, and thus important to have.

Yes, I mean he "started" it, even though he couldn't keep up with it. I hope he is okay - when last I heard he was not.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

I don't know but I heard he was having some problems too. Hopefully whatever is going on improves.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

i use lemmy, mbin, loops, mastodon, peertube and have previously used pixelfed and kbin

You're not exactly speaking to the right crowd here, what kinda shorts do you imagine we'd make?

You wanna see dancing nerds? Little 15 second lectures from awkward people who only sort of know what they're talking about?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I mean, it have his kind of appeal...

[-] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago

Yea that's fine I guess. Sure. Anything is fine as long as it's more than just the 3 people showing their cats that's on their now.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

[-] [email protected] 2 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)
