Where can I find that option? Is it during instance-setup?
Well, both. I want to grow my instance a bit and also don't want other people to post weird stuff in my communities
Interesting idea, thanks
Well written, interesting article.
Really getting momentum from Reddit will be tough though. Our main advantage is that we have the rest of the Fediverse as a potential user base, and existing forum apps that also activate apub; reducing network effects. If the Fediverse has momentum, so has the threadiverse.
I think its a cool idea. I had a similar idea once: https://fungiverse.wordpress.com/2024/07/27/floo-network-anouncement/ but for the whole social web instead of just Lemmy.
Its interesting, it could get overwhelming easily though. Maybe this could be solved by only showing instances of a certain size?
Even if it doesnt have much impact on activitypub-fedi, I think this is good news for the fediverse in general. X is loosing more and more relevancy and microblogging is more and more happening on federating services.
You can already see how Meta will also use imagery to establish its centre-position in the Fediverse with its symbol for the Fediverse (it has a centre):

It’s fine if single instances do consent-based federation that prioritize safety over openess, but why should it become the default for all instances? It will result in instance protectionism and an overall decline in discussion quality. Making it opt-in means people will connect less likely with folks from other instances, meaning people will mainly stay on their instances, meaning it supports tribalism in the Fediverse. More safety usually comes at a cost, too. In this case: less interaction with other instances.
But if you federate with instances that you trust good enough in the first place, constent-based federation is not necessary imo.
I have to switch between subscribed/local/all feed all the time. That's why I proposed a mixed-feed, which merges Subscribed/Local/All feed according to users settings so you don't have to switch all the time.
I already created an issue: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/2137
Just looked up what FANG means - what the hell does Netflix in there? Seriously Netflix doesn't do shit. Typical case of forced acronyms ;)
Without the fediverse a viable non-surveilled internet might not be able to exist.
I would agree. Mastodon made search opt-in. There will always be communities and users that refuse to be searchable and that should be fine.
I think this is also heavily related to the CSAM issue, because
A.) Its horrible to read about in the first place B.) Its makes users more reluctant to browse content in general C.) It makes users more reluctant to browse content at work or in public places
I think that scared off many users (it also scared me off a bit). I think if Lemmy finds a solution to fight this kind of stuff and gives users some reassurance that the problem is handled will bring many users back. I think the importance of content moderation and SPAM defense should be the biggest learning points of the first Lemmy loop.

On 0.19.3, you can:
Additional: On https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/blob/main/docker/nginx.conf, there is an option "client_max_body_size" that you can set to 0.
