Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Geddit: Open-source, Reddit client for Android without using API
You may be thinking of tafkars: https://github.com/derivator/tafkars
Activity seems to have died down now that some larger Reddit apps have announced they're building dedicated Lemmy clients. Connect for Lemmy is pretty good already, Sync is coming out with an app in a few weeks, and there are other apps out there as well.

Whats your favourite alternative to slide?
You can also change the base URL in the app to a Reddit-To-Lemmy proxy like https://github.com/derivator/tafkars

Code modifications to use tafkars?
I'm trying to use https://github.com/derivator/tafkars in order to access lemmy through the infinity interface, but it seems changing only the api url in APIUtils doesn't work. Is there anything else that needs to be changed?
- Tafkars is a Reddit API proxy in the early stages of development. It will enable Reddit apps to be used on servers and networks running other protocols. A Lemmy translation layer will be developed first.

Boost can partner with reddit alternatives instead of shutting down
By the way, someone else posted the link, there is already someone working on such an API conversion. Here's the link https://github.com/derivator/tafkars
- I'm super happy to pay again, but I'd also love to see an as smooth as possible transition!
- Tafkars - API proxy for apps to talk to Lemmy through the Reddit API, thus bridging existing clients with the fediverse

Folks who understand both the Reddit API and the Lemmy API would be super useful over in https://github.com/derivator/tafkars

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.
