Vivaldi is hosting a community talk about the Fediverse.
Attached: 1 image If you’ve been following us, you’ll know that we’re big on the Fediverse. It was incredibly important for us to create an instance and provide everyone with a social network free of ads and algorithms. Join us live this Saturday as we talk about why it was important for us to do...
Vivaldi (the web browser) is hosting a community talk together with AllThingsTech about "Why does being on the Fediverse matter to us?". You can listen along to it via. https://audon.space/u/@Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net.
They start on the 25th of May, 13:00 EDT / 17:00 UTC.
I think there is one on f-drpid. But using the website as is works great on mobile aswell.
Yeah. It is kinda "lacking" in the terms of reviews. But for each goodreads people that join, the more reviews and books we get, as you can import your goodreads library. And knowing the fediverse, it won't be that long, I hope ;P
Lol, yeah. It can be a little lacking for now, but knowing the fediverse, it won't be long until it also gets populated!
Lol yeah. Would be nice. But I'll bet ya we'll make an instance for it whenever it gets made :P
Bookwyrm is specifically made for booksharing and book reviewing. While lemmy is more general. For instance, this is a link to the "a game of thrones book" https://bookwyrm.world/book/8138/s/a-game-of-thrones. Here you have reviews of the book. You can also add that book to your "to read" list aswell.
The fediverse Goodreads alternative: Bookwyrm
If you are interested in sharing book recommendations with other, or just manage your books, then bookwyrm is great for that! The .world team also has a bookwyrm instance up and running at bookwyrm.world with a community here on lemmy as well at !bookwyrm@lemmy.world. Read Ruuds original post about it here: https://lemmy.world/post/5904792
If you want to join another bookwyrm instance, then head over to joinbookwyrm.com.
Anyway, it's a great place to find books, share books, and find people with similar interests in books! If there is anything that you feel needs to be improved or changed on the bookwyrm.world instance, then contact me!
EDIT - Mastodon account for the instance: @bookwyrmworld@mastodon.world
Great job guys and other contributors 😉👏
New Moderator Code of Conduct Input
A tip from a LW admin
Heyo! Just a heads up that jelloeater added startrek.website to his lemmy status monitor. This means that you (the admins) can add a badge to the sidebar to show your uptime the last 24 hours, if you want. Basically, it's free status monitoring.
Bay!

Awesome!
I honestly get dizzy by just looking at those numbers...😵💫
I have locked this post because of comments deviating from the main topic.
@NAS89@lemmy.world made a good comment here. You should make a public post in your community where you need moderators. Try to specify that you need people from a different time zone that yours.
Allright. Good luck 😉
No Instagram Threads app in the EU: Irish DPC says Meta's new Twitter rival won't be launched here.
Meta will not launch its new Twitter rival, Threads, in Ireland or the EU for the foreseeable future.
How does the directory discover communities? As, for instance, this community (!fediverse@lemmy.world) does not exist in the directory.
That is also correct. This post is just very... wrong.
Yes. You should be able to edit posts.
NOTE: This graph does not show the entire fediverse, but only mastodon. Hopefully OP can change their title to reflect this.
Seems like you had some problems with embedding your image. Try doing this: "", that should embed the image for you :)
It should be good now. The discord server is only for people who help moderate the instance itself, and not community mods. I help with the moderation part. If you have questions then you can ask in the !support@lemmy.world or !moderators@lemmy.world communities. Sorry :)
Fedidb.org recommends to use active users stats instead of total users stats.
Fedidb.org recommends people who view their statistics on their “Threadiverse” tracking page that people should not use graphs and numbers from the total users due to the surge of bot-accounts, and should instead use the monthly active users. This puts the “Threadiverse” at 87,089. Lemmy with 37,197 and Kbin at 44,136. Fedidb.org also shows that the number of accounts is now at 1,75 million, though most of these accounts are probably just bots.
Opening instance/community/post links.
I don't know if this is a feature or not, but if it is, it's not working for me. When opening a link that refers to a post or community it opens an in-buildt browser inside of the app, instead of ridercting me inside of the app itself. It's a real pain when openig lemmy links and having to switch to a browser every time.
If this isn't a feature, is it planned?
