A very active (Friendica) group devoted to news about the Fediverse (venera.social)
 

This is a very active group that I run and moderate. It keeps people up to date about new developments in the Fediverse, especially regarding new developments with protocols, platforms, servers. Many developers are active here. It currently has 1,758 members.

I don't know how well Lemmy connects with Friendica groups, but it worth subscribing to!

Redditors, how do you like Lemmy? in c/[email protected]

I agree with you, Ada. For a long time, I've said that the focus on Mastodon (and consequently microblogging) has been myopic. And I've urged developers to explore more of the Fediverse. It's exciting that a different use case has opened peoples' eyes to further Fediverse possibilities. Maybe the #RedditMigration will cause people to re-think what is possible.

Yep, I actually caught that typo and edited it, but it's frustrating that the edit didn't federate to your server. Oh well, maybe that will improve with time ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

I run a few groups, like @[email protected], mostly on Friendica. It's okay, but Friendica resembles Facebook Groups more than Reddit. I also like the moderation options that Lemmy has.

Currently, I'm testing jerboa, which is an Android client for Lemmy. It's in alpha, has a few hiccups, but it's coming along nicely.

Personally, I hope the #RedditMigration spurs adoption of more Fediverse server software. And I hope Mastodon users continue to interact with Lemmy and Kbin.

All that said, as a mod of a Reddit community (r/Sizz) I somewhat regret giving Reddit all that content. They have nerve charging so much for API access!

Hopefully, we can build a better version of social media that focuses on protocols, not platforms.
