If you’ve been sitting on making a post about your favorite instance, this could be a good opportunity to do so.

Going by our registration applications, a lot of people are learning about the fediverse for the first time and they’re excited about the idea. I’ve really enjoyed reading through them :)

    Ya know, if a writer for Oliver gets the right push, it isn’t even to strange to get them to literally open an instance on the Fediverse. They love getting their names on shit and the dare “I bet you can’t get @oli.verse instance to become the top Lemmy instance” would be right up their ally. You’d see a million users in a week, lol.

    A little disappointing that Bluesky is on there as well, but pretty awesome other than that. And I guess even Bluesky is probably better than Threads, and definitely better than Xitter.

    I’m particularly glad to see Pixelfed as the only Instagram alternative, because it’s a great space that could use more support.

        It is big tech. It’s just less big tech than Xitter and Facebook. And it at least kinda-sorta has some vague federation-like design. And it’s a “public benefit corporation”, which doesn’t mean much because it’s still for-profit, but it at least means they’re allowed to not put profit ahead of public good, unlike normal for-profit companies. Not as good as Mastodon by far, with its true federation and true not-for-profit status in the guiding entity, but it’s not nothing.

    Any way to watch this from Canada? He says it’s not available in my country.
