We also do have a forum sort on here, that allows infinite necrobumping (not limited to 2 days like the Hot sorts), called New Comments.

But ya I agree link aggregator is a good enough descriptor for what lemmy is: a place to post links to communities, and comment on them.

I think link aggregator is fine, and most descriptive of what lemmy is. Its a place to post links to communities, and allows for comments on those links.

Here is the issue and the pull request.

Essentially multi-communities are a federated item very similar to communities, that federated users can subscribe to. They have an id, a creator, name, description, and a list of communities. If you subscribe to it, your instance will pick up any changes to it. You can then get a list of posts filtered by that multi-community.

Here are the new endpoints:

• https://join-lemmy.org/api/main#tag/Post/operation/GetPosts
• Not new, but you can now filter by a multi-community
• https://join-lemmy.org/api/main#operation/FollowMultiCommunity
• https://join-lemmy.org/api/main#operation/CreateMultiCommunity
• https://join-lemmy.org/api/main#operation/GetMultiCommunity
• https://join-lemmy.org/api/main#operation/CreateMultiCommunityEntry
• https://join-lemmy.org/api/main#operation/ListMultiCommunities

Any wiki would work for this. @nutomic@lemmy.ml is developing a federated wiki called ibis that is quite far along now.

Calling for the dissolution of Israel, or calling for a one-state solution without specifying equal rights for all people; Jewish in particular.

Calling for a destruction, annihilation, an end of all Zionism or the like.

Zionism means colonialism not just in practice, but from its very inception:

They do, but also donations are still entirely optional. We’re a soup kitchen providing a free meal; if people don’t want to eat the soup, or eat it but don’t want to (or aren’t able) to support the kitchen, that’s not a problem.

Yep, instance admins and mods need your support also. It takes a lot of work to keep an instance free of trolls, and its a thankless job.

Thx!

If I didn’t respond to anyone below, thank you. It means a lot, and makes the years of work I’ve spent on lemmy feel worthwhile and important.

Graphtreon says their API is $760 / month.

Patreon isn’t going to do anything for us specifically. They have a proper auth API, its just a lot of work to get plugged into it, when we only need a few data points.

Massive differences and breaking changes between the two versions. We’ve been having to backport fixes for months now.

Right now it will randomly pop up once a year, different for every user.

so far no change on the reported donations when comparing to previous reporting which is actually down.

We had this automated, but patreon blocked our IP, so I’ll update it manually rn, and try to do that at least once a month.

v1.0 is mainly about finalizing the API, which is mostly done now. We still have a few issues to finish for the 1.0.0 release, but this is likely still months away due to the need for apps to handle the breaking changes, and get caught up on features.

Even though this is our first stable release, people should remember also that lemmy isn’t an enterprise product; its free software developed by a small number of volunteers.

Thx! Really appreciate it, and I’m glad someone thinks its worthwhile work we’re doing.

You can just use magnet links. I wrote a guide for how to use them here

Like here’s a Joan Crawford movie I like: Sudden Fear 1952 . A super-beginner way, is to install stremio and click that link. Boom, you’re now watching the movie.

Who controls this universal community name system?

I still don’t follow you. In the very first link, we direct people a page that lets them explore or join a server. You don’t need to know anything about federation to use lemmy.

It can’t be transferred, but the posts / content will never vanish. Most importantly, it will stay searcheable.

The best option is just to create another community on a living server, and link to the local version of a dead one in a sidebar.

I’m not sure how we could make this more clear either on https://join-lemmy.org/ , or the docs: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/index.html
