jointhefediverse.net - Why was Lemmy removed from the list of fediverse alternatives? (github.com)

jointhefediverse.net seems to be a commonly linked resource for directing people to join the Fediverse.

Curiously, it does not list Lemmy under the list of Reddit alternatives. Their GitHub README explains why.

Lemmy was removed due to:

  • reports of how the developers handle certain types of content (post removed, view an incomplete archive)
  • the behavior of its creator
  • how the sotware itself handles users' privacy.

All valid concerns.

Point 1 and 2 really need to be addressed.

It would be so much better if lemmy wasn't developed by genocide white-washing tankies.

Any way to migrate a self hosted lemmy instance to piefed?

[–] ocean@lemmy.selfhostcat.com 2 points 6 hours ago

just run both!

No, it's not geared up for that. There's a platform called sublinks where the intention is to be initially compatible enough with Lemmy that it can be a drop-in replacement, but they haven't released anything yet.

Oh interesting, thanks for sharing!
