A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

MODERATORS
 

I run a few groups, like @fediversenews@venera.social, 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.

Issue 818, yes that is what I am after.

For issue 1048, while reducing links off-instance is good, I think there are more ways that you end up being on a different instance, such as browsing different instances for content (because there isn't an exact equivalent to /r/all here). As I think about it, it seems like instances maybe should have something like an "Open Link" feature. Maybe that is what nnhien is talking about

Wow, this is an awesome exchange. Makes me want to go down the rabbit hole of reading the GitHub issues.

Anyway... I'm looking for a GitHub issue in more of a sky blue. Can you recommend something?
