I'd expect that Bluesky would launch invites in next few days or so, to those who left their emails. I mean, their competitor is up so why not sent these invites or even open registration for anyone Unless of course they first want to

From my PoV so far it looks that subs which decided to join lemmy or fediverse did not become active in same way as on reddit. I'd guess that these communities are rather a 'rogue' spin-off of subreddits created by people w

It seems Google finally decided to take decisive measures against these proxies . For last 2 weeks I'm seeing Invidious and Piped sites (and freetube app) struggling buffering or even stopping completely; video quality drops sometimes

Some 10-15 years ago I would consider that some people have to write in such way but they really don't believe in all that bullcrap. But nowadays? There's lots of people who got their brains eaten by this corporate newspeak, and t

Wasn't Mattermost turned recently into a paid service?

All my GW2 guilds at some point created discord servers and all life moved there and in time in-game chat channels become ghost towns. When we moved from TS to discord the first noticeable change was audio quality and the fact that we &quot

by pndy 3y ago
The only thing counting in favor of discord is the ability to use as many servers as you like with a single account, while you might face forums where links in the posts gets visible only if you register an account. I don't recall seei
