jointhefediverse.net seems to be a commonly linked resource for directing people to join the Fediverse.

Curiously, it does not list Lemmy under the list of Reddit alternatives. Their GitHub README explains why.

Point 1 and 2 really need to be addressed.

It would be so much better if lemmy wasn't developed by genocide white-washing tankies.

Any way to migrate a self hosted lemmy instance to piefed?

[–] andrew_s@piefed.social 8 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

No, it's not geared up for that. There's a platform called sublinks where the intention is to be initially compatible enough with Lemmy that it can be a drop-in replacement, but they haven't released anything yet.

Oh interesting, thanks for sharing!

[–] ocean@lemmy.selfhostcat.com 2 points 11 hours ago

just run both!

Python based: I was looking for that

[–] Serinus@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, I don't expect it to scale well. Certainly not as well as Rust.

[–] andrew_s@piefed.social 2 points 1 hour ago

In terms of incoming federation, PieFed sites are dealing with as much activity as any general Lemmy instance. It's not happened yet, but I suppose it's possible that problems will become apparent if the amount of local users gets over a certain size. A limit on the amount of users per instance isn't necessarily a bad thing though (it's cheap, and hopefully easy enough, for someone to spin up another one).

Have you checked how muh software do you use that is enabled by capitalism?

You should ask it on lemmygrad.ml :D
