I’m not sure those two settings should be compatible? If it’s a private instance then it means it should not federate.

I guess it was an oversight regarding breaking changes. What error did you get? It might help some people who’re experience similar problems.

Please no… For the love of Foss, no. Apple would start making private changes to the ActivityPub protocol to support mundane things like images and polls in their own way while images and polls from other instances wouldn’t load properly and would be in a green bubble.

Good point!

Check out kbin.pub, it’s like lemmy but supports microblogs (mastodon-like). It’s not yet fully federated with Lemmy but will try to. I’m not a user though, just found about it today.

That is how it was at reddit during/before/relatively after the digg exodus.

Does anyone know if there’s plans for Lemmy to support reading and posting to the larger microblogging fediverse? (similar to how kbin allows you to).

Can you create communities in remote instances?

This is a genius idea. Imagine all app developers get together and once reddit stops working they ALL from their app’s interfaces recommend switching to a lemmy instance, and mention that lemmy will be supported on their app in near future.

This could be a massive blow to reddit since the traffic these apps contribute to is huge.
