- yellowapple 3y agoThose three were the ones I was able to try out (and that seemed to work reasonably well). Do you have a sample Brutalinks instance running somewhere? If so, then happy to give it a whirl and add it to my list of options :)
- mariusor 3y agoThere is a demo instance where I test the latest code[1], but my purpose as a developer is to make the project better not to admin/moderate a discussion platform. My hope was that communities come together and put up their own servers. [1] https://brutalinks.tech https://brutalinks.tech
- yellowapple 3y agoI dig it; you've made my self-imposed task of "figure out which of these I like best" that much harder lol Noticing that it's more like HN than reddit, in the sense that there's no equivalent to a subreddit AFAICT. Fine for my purposes, but are there any implications around that when it comes to federating with e.g. Lemmy or Kbin (which very much do have subreddit-like subtopics)?
- mariusor 3y ago> there's no equivalent to a subreddit AFAICT The idea (maybe not very well communicated in the README and other docs[1]) is that each instance would correspond to a "subreddit" with its distinct community. The federated aspect however still allows users from other instances to subscribe/participate. In my personal opinion building services that group multiple interests is a step in the wrong direction creating redundancy to the concept of federation itself.

- yellowapple 3y agoFair enough. For my purposes I only really need a single subreddit-equivalent for my own (prospective) instance; my worry's more around making sure my Brutalinks instance can make sense of the various multi-interest instances/services out there.
