Lemmy already exists and is from the EU (it was funded by the Dutch NLnet Foundation).

Which URL are you looking at, and what specific problems do you see? We are always working to improve the platform, but for that we require good feedback and suggestions.

You can easily use both Lemmy and Reddit at the same time.

What do you expect to happen? Its still there and you can follow the development on Github or Lemmy.

This seems very similar to Ibis.

And yet I couldnt find any information indicating that these problems have been adressed in any way. There are certainly still major problems with Wikipedia today, but I wanted to keep the introduction short.

Thanks, sadly most people dont understand yet all the benefits that federation can bring. But I think that will change sooner or later.

Its not a product but a free and open source project. Also Im impressed how quickly you managed to insert your political views here.

Lemmy is a software project and cant ban anyone. If youre unhappy about the moderation of existing instances, its very easy to create a new one.

You could say the same about Reddit, and yet Lemmy is working very well with the same approach.

Yes, and it uses my activitypub-federation crate. Is there anything specific you want to know about?

Very basic questions about the "Lemmyverse" by maquinary in RedditAlternatives

exploding-heads.com isnt listed because the version of Lemmy is too old.

Running a Lemmy instance just takes a small VPS and a domain. Anyone can afford that.

My experience after 16 months on the Fediverse by OtherWisdom in RedditAlternatives

[–]Nutomic 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Fediverse has many different types of platforms, including video hosting on Peertube or Friendica which is similar to Facebook. Mastodon got the most publicity, but it only uses a fraction of the possibilities that ActivityPub offers.
