Trump is president and this is their priority?

Yes I know Loops exists and ActivityPub is better, but this is !bluesky@lemmy.ml and your comment will be removed if you don’t have anything more substantial substantial to say than that.

Frontpage?

Well that’s why the article talks about the Free Our Feeds initiative to launch a second ATProto Relay.

Also, there are many types of ATProto servers: PDSs, Labelers, Feed Generators, AppViews, and Relays. None of them can be directly compared to Mastodon instances, so please don’t.

The article talks about launching independent servers completely reliant on Bluesky PBLLC so that users may migrate away if Bluesky is ever threatened with enshittification.

I hope it dies faster!

Is Threads even a good enough product for users to be willing to endure ads?

You’re perfectly free to go on Lemmy instances that don’t have that as a rule.

I’m glad to hear

I just added it as a rule for the communities I moderate. I also set my Bluesky feeds to filter out X links.

@dessalines@lemmy.ml please consider this.

Lemmy instances should follow suit.

According to fedidb.org, Lemmy has plateaued at around 43k active users over the past year.

If you ask me, though, it doesn’t matter. The Lemmy ecosystem is active and healthy.

I don’t know. I’m just making rough estimates. Suffice it to say that that the lemmy.ml admins do not have any power over the vast majority of lemmy users.

According to lemmyverse.net,

One out of the top ten when sorting by MAU. That community is !memes@lemmy.ml.

Say what you will about the Lemmy devs and their political leanings, but they did a great job at ensuring the broader Lemmy community would not centralize onto their instance.

Yeah, actually. Of the top five four instances by MAU according to FediDB, lemmy.ml has 9% of the total user base.

I know there a pie charts that illustrate this point better, but I can’t find them right now.

Huh. I’ll do that later today then

There’s already an initiative to launch a third-party ATProto relay. Hopefully soon enough, we’ll be able to post on Bluesky without relying on Bluesky PBLLC’s infrastructure.

LGBT content on rednote is usually posted with #le and #wlw, as far as I heard.
