go-littr VS Lemmy

If you're interested in Go, I develop such a project and the plumbing required for it.

The code is at https://github.com/mariusor/go-littr and you can check it out at https://brutalinks.tech

For people favouring to the old reddit interface more, I created another federated alternative: https://github.com/mariusor/go-littr (with an example instance at https://brutalinks.tech).

Sadly it received less publicity and mind share than lemmy, so not everything might be up to the expectations of the HN crowd.

The code is on github: https://github.com/mariusor/go-littr An example is at: https://littr.me Status: not done.

Considering it's received HN's kiss-of-death, perhaps a pointer to the code is useful: https://github.com/mariusor/go-littr

If you're interested in another option to lotide, I'm working on a very similar project to it, called brutalinks. You can check it out an example instance at https://brutalinks.tech. The code is on github and sourcehut.

I started a go project to create a link aggregator similar to HN and old reddit, but built on top of ActivityPub.

It's targeted at small to medium communities, but at the same time it can reach outward through the federation mechanism that ActivityPub provides. Outside of immediate support to intercommunicate with other instances of its own platform, it will handle interactions from the larger fediverse at large: Mastodon, Pleroma, Pixelfed, etc.

Currently this is a one man project, namely me, and I would welcome support in any area that people could help: development, design, documentation, graphics, copy, etc.

The project can be found at https://github.com/mariusor/go-littr, and if anyone is interested there is a mailing list where people can get in touch: https://lists.sr.ht/~mariusor/activitypub-go

Some details about the project can be found on its wiki: https://man.sr.ht/~mariusor/go-activitypub/brutalinks/index....

https://littr.me/ is another federated reddit-like project under development, a "link aggregator" as they call it. https://github.com/mariusor/go-littr

I see that people already recommended lemmy, but if you're looking for something closer to old reddit and hacker news I am working on https://github.com/mariusor/go-littr. An example instance is at https://littr.me

I'm building something that could help in this regard: https://github.com/mariusor/go-littr

It's a distillation of the early reddit into a discussion platform that speaks activitypub. This means that the goal is not to have "one site" to rule them all, but that communities can each create their own and then interact with others if they chose to.

An demo instance is at https://littr.me

Lemmy is like Reddit and here because it has threaded comment discussions.

It's also federated, so you can pick a server you like and have discussions with users from various servers together.

Some Reddit apps switched to supporting Lemmy instead when they were kicked off the API.

Seems functionally similar to Lemmy: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy

There was some talk back in June of migrating or setting up a parallel community on Lemmy. Did anything ever come of that? If not, would anyone be interested in helping set one up?

Because they are all different deployments of Lemmy [0]?

[0] https://join-lemmy.org

Local servers (dietpi, Freedombox, YUNoHost or similar solutions) which can be used to host different solarpunk content and setup instances on the fediverse (like peertube, mastodon, Lemmy etc.)

The entire page is based on Lemmy (https://join-lemmy.org/).

I disabled a ton of features and interface parts, as IMO the original lemmy interface is super noisy.

Runs on bare-metal with docker-compose. For the facelift, just good old CSS :)
