Ask HN: Which Lemmy communities and instances are you visiting daily?
One will notice the regrettable duplication in that list, and it's (AFAIK) a massive unsolved problem in the Fediverse. My mental model is that Lemmy is exactly like signing up to mailing lists but where one can also upvote and downvote posts (err, some instances don't allow downvotes, so there's that). That means that folks who want the most coverage for their submission will post it to every one of the duplicated mailing lists, which results in their own message-id along with their own threaded replies and upvote/downvote scores. Some folks have proposed using the link-url and subject for deduplicating them, but I believe it's just a proposal from the client side and the servers will do no such thing (although running your own instance hypothetically would allow for such customization)
There's also https://kbin.pub which is its own ActivityPub implementation and behaves a little different from Lemmy, I'm sure with good and bad parts. IIRC there's some federation drama between Kbin and some Lemmy instances, and (AFAIK) Kbin does not have any mobile apps whereas there are currently several which speak the Lemmy API. I'd credit it with "first mover effect" more than one being objectively better than the other
I do hope Lemmy catches on and siphons users off of Reddit because the rug-pull from Reddit was a trust-breaking middle finger, IMHO. I wished the same thing for Mastodon, too, but I think the inertia is just too strong with X

Alternative to Reddit: @[email protected]
The Fediverse - which kbin is a part of - is a network of interconnected servers used for publishing content, much like Reddit. The benefit is that the Fediverse is decentralised and not controlled by any company or authority, cannot be monetised in the same sense as Reddit, and the code is free. Different servers - also called instances - are independent but communicate with each other.

Is there a way to take a image / snapshot of my present installs / config?
There is pretty big one on kbin and iirc there is one on lemmy as well
-
Steamdeck at lemmy
There is pretty big one at kbin, specifically on the kbin.social instance
- Lemmy now has over 2M users across 915 instances
- RIP Nitter

Lemmy.ml's admin is pro chinese government and actively censors comments that are critical. (Reposting this for awareness)
Lemmy https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy has definite technical advantages vs https://github.com/ernestwisniewski/kbin -- use of PHP is a bit of a red flag. I'm going to try a small ARM64 instance so explicitly supporting that is nice.

A Reddit transcription community will shut down over a 'lack of trust' in the platform
Lemmy (https://join-lemmy.org) and Kbin (https://kbin.pub) - those are like reddit, but federated (means there are multiple websites and are connected to each other so you can access "subreddits" of each of them, it's similar idea how e-mail works, you don't need to be on gmail to send e-mail to friend on gmail). The Kbin is distinct from lemmy, but it looks like you can access lemmy communities from kbin and vice versa. Also this might be useful https://github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmy-instances

Sinon kbin (qu'il faut que je test).

accessible solution for lemmy?
You can use kbin instead, if the political views of Lemmy's developers makes you feel uneasy.

Is there a directory of fediverse reddit clones that is actually readable?
I tried join-lemmy.org, but it's just an unordered list of random servers. This repo, linked there, hasn't had a commit in three weeks, which, given the recent attempt at an exodus, presumably dates it severely. This site, which the first site links, is just outright dead, and doesn't work. The last site they link is a D3 visualization that doesn't work too well - it's very cluttered, and instances constantly fall of the screen, with no scrolling capability - nearly unreadable.

How do I sign up and create an account on Lemmy?

Mlmym.org - An old.reddit-like frontend for Lemmy
Your best bet is to join a Lemmy instance with a name you like, really. Check this list of instances. If I were you I'd pick one with a good uptime, but not World or ShitJustWorks, nor Beehaw.
- can I ask a dumb question about the fediverse?
- I'm ready, but Lemmy isn't

In need of help, trying to register on Lemmy and got verification from Github but still can't seem to login
I don't understand the relevance of github here either. Pick an instance from https://join-lemmy.org/ or pick one from https://github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmy-instances like I did. Heads up that the latter hasn't been updated in a while. Go through the sign up process on that instance. Use a valid email address when signing up. Check your spam folder for a confirmation email. Good luck, let us know if you have any other questions.
