Your case almost reads like satire. So extreme. Another reason to not miss reddit and its excessive gamification among with other terrible features. You make redditors look like zombies. No offense.

It's the way a Telegram bots deliver the links. See response above.

It's a Telegram bot that filters top rated articles in news.ycombinator and it links them like that. You can click the 'comments' link and see for yourself.

Try Notion. It is great for personal stuff, highly customizable. They have also added a set of project management tools recently.

Yeah, that's why I don't like much how they are using this place to repost memes or tweets. It's not content I really like, a written thought like yours will always be more genuine and personalized.

Hello, I am thinking of running a new instance for LatAm users and topics, and I see from the Lemmy documentation that "country and hosting must be chosen carefully to avoid issues, takedowns, loss of data" (roughly paraphrasing)

Looking for advice from you guys on the best hostings out there and best practices to avoid legal or hosting issues.

Do domain providers matter?

No offense, and I've seen several people requesting porn, but to me that kind of lowers the level or seriousness of a community. I'm OK if a platforms allows NSFW content, but there's a difference between actively browsing for porn and getting spam to your account. Porn is a very distracting stuff with addiction potential.

To me the best thing about forums, reddit, lemmy, etc. is the aggregation of general human knowledge, and it's better if you don't have to swim over a load of attention-grabbing content for it.

Not overloaded with porn. Reddit is full of bots and porn accs. Not the greatest issue ofc

Thank you so much!

I plan to open an instance focused on Latin America communities and topics, if anybody else have similar ideas and we can join together, hit me up!

I don't know if this the right place for it, but I plan on creating a Lemmy instance, though my technical or development skills are not the best, I have some experience with website administration (simple stuff like WordPress).

Is this the best /c/ to gather advice for it? Is it something worth at all being that I'm not an expert on this stuff? If you can refer me to other communities or resources on instance setup I'd appreciate! It's a fun project and I want to contribute to the fediverse.
