I think the best thing of reddit is them having so many actually active niche subreddits. Many people saying Lemmy doesn’t need to grow don’t seem to care much about that which surprises me a bit.

Didn’t see it back then, just came across this on mastodon today. Sure they are competitors, given that nextcloud started as am owncloud fork, but they probably monitored ownclouds development closer than everyone else.

The resources required by federating depend on how many people follow each other across those two instances and how much these post. Just existing and theoretically federating doesn’t need any resources if there’s nobody following, assuming threads isn’t doing that different from everyone else.

For each post a user makes on your instance, it sends that post to each instance where someone follows the poster. There’s no automatic sending to every known instance of every post on your instance.

I had no idea! Thanks

I wish it had a self hostable sync feature

Every image on the federated timeline. It’s a lot if users on your instance follow many other users.

I don’t notice whether communities are kbin or Lemmy, so no idea. I think many communities being on Lemmy partly comes from that being released a few years earlier.

Unfortunately not. I think some areas have hashtags for that kind of stuff and someone is working on a new platform, but it’s not there yet.

Wheat is vegan, even if animals are harmed in the process of growing and harvesting it (pesticides, rodents in combine harvesters).

Venus fly traps are vegan, even if they harmed flies.

Animals are harmed in industrial farming as well. It sucks, but doesn’t make wheat not being vegan.
