  • @feyter ohh boy... IMHO

    I believe I am a game developer. Even though my games are barely games and I have sold $0.

    I am also a hobby game developer, because I am not selling anything and I just want to make something.

    A profesional game developer is someone that can/has gotten hired to develop games.

    An indie games developer used to mean something but can now mean almost anything.

    A solo games developer is a rockstar fullstack genius that does entire games, except the parts they cant do.

  • I’ve been thinking about discovering underappreciated Lemmy instances. GitHub’s awesome-lemmy-instances used to serve a similar purpose, but it hasn’t been updated in a long time, and I haven’t found anything else like it.

    I got the idea from this post about finding decentralized communities in the Fediverse. I’m thinking of a Lemmy bot that tracks Lemmy instances, calculates the average number of active users and standard deviation, and identifies instances with activity below the average plus two standard deviations. It would then rank these underutilized instances by performance metrics like uptime and response time, and periodically update a curated list on Lemmy to guide users toward instances that could use more participation.

    I'd love feedback on how you would go about doing something like this. And specifically how to rank by performance.

  • Ok people of the what is your POV on this? If you develop games in your free time, does this make you a game developer or just a "hobby game dev"?

  • @box464 Some 10-20, not more.

    Usually it's either a long form article or a video I want to see in a later moment, or suggestions for movies/series/books for which, if I appreciated them, I want to remember who to thank for suggesting

  • How many bookmarks do you have saved on your fediverse account? Please boost widely.

    If it’s more than 100..how many more than 100? And if you’ve never used them, why?

    Thank you! 🔖

  • Today I discovered the Fediverse Software Database, and it’s a bit disheartening to see how many platforms have so few users. What are some ways we could help promote these smaller or newer Fediverse projects and give them more visibility?

  • https://fedidb.com/software

    "By platform" is a fuzzy request given the interoperable nature of the fediverse. This list is broken up by software, so Lemmy/PieFed/mbin are listed separately even though their users share and interact as if they were all on one platform.

  • I'm looking for an up-to-date, comprehensive list of all ActivityPub federated platforms, sorted by the total number of monthly active users across all instances. Similar to Fediverse Observer’s list but for platforms instead of instances using the platform. Does anyone know of one?

    @evan @phi > We have some ad hoc ways to move from one to the other, but they aren't built into the SMTP or IMAP specsyes they are, though? in IMAP, you can just copy your messages and folders from one inbox to another. in SMTP, we have email forwarding.using your own DNS name can make things easier, but the main challenge in fedi is that we don't have a common storage/access abstraction (equivalent to IMAP folders), and we don't recognize HTTP redirects (equivalent to SMTP forwarding).

    Running a community in the Fediverse means balancing openness with safety. Every year, @iftas takes the pulse of administrators, moderators, and community managers with their Annual Needs Assessment. This survey helps identify what’s working, where support is needed, and which tools can make a difference for those keeping decentralized spaces safe.The 2025 survey is now openTake part in the IFTAS Needs Assessment (5–10 minutes).Take the survey now(If you haven’t seen them before, you can also take a look at last year’s report)Last year’s responses represented moderators of over 4.3 million accounts across ActivityPub platforms. With WordPress now the largest group of federating instances, it’s especially important for our community of hosts, site admins, and moderators to be heard.Moderation in WordPress: From Site-Wide to Personal ControlsWe recently introduced a major update to the ActivityPub plugin for WordPress: personalized and site-wide moderation tools.Site administrators can now set domain, keyword, and actor-level blocks that protect the entire site.Individual users can fine-tune their own experience with personal blocks, managed directly from their profiles.Content is checked against both global and personal rules—so moderation works at every level.These improvements directly address needs raised in previous IFTAS surveys, making moderation more discoverable, flexible, and effective for WordPress communities in the Fediverse.Your Input MattersIFTAS uses the Needs Assessment to guide tools, policies, and advocacy that reflect the real-world challenges of moderators—especially those in under-resourced communities. The more representative the responses, the stronger the outcomes for everyone.If you’re running a federating WordPress site, please consider:Filling out the survey yourself.Sharing it with other admins, moderators, and community organizers.Reminding folks that it’s anonymous, quick, and impactful.Take the 2025 Fediverse Needs AssessmentTogether, we can keep building a safer, healthier Fediverse—one that reflects the needs of its communities.
