petrescatraian@libranet.deto World News@beehaw.org•China Hits Back at Trump Tariffs with 34% Duties on All US Goods6·4 days ago@remington All I hope for the world after this is to get its shit together and form some world trade system with as little US as possible in it (no offense to you or anyone living in the US); or that the next presidents will realize what shitshow this makes

Sitting at 17.4k vs 17.3k and has long since been the one with way more MAUs! 🥳🎆2·9 days agoFriendica has federated with Lemmy since… the very first time Lemmy enabled AP federation I guess? lol, idk. I just got very happy that I can also replace Reddit with Friendica, not just Facebook. Sadly, I figured out the hard way about .ml and the only alternative to .ml was beehaw, lol.
Back then .world didn’t even exist, lol.
Anyway, yes, hello from Friendica. It’s not so active indeed, because there are not so many people, but as it got some attention from Ruud (the admin of both lemmy.world and mastodon.world) there’s been an uptick as of late.
Sadly, the situation of Friendica as an alternative to Facebook is really disproportionate, imo, as this is a hobby project made by some enthusiasts that aren’t even organized as a juridical entity (unlike Mastodon for example) vs. a multibillion-dollar company that owns the biggest social network on the planet.
Lemmy is also in a somewhat similar situation, but Reddit is not that big, though.
Being the oldest still actively developed Fediverse project does give it an advantage, though.

Sitting at 17.4k vs 17.3k and has long since been the one with way more MAUs! 🥳🎆10·9 days ago@cm0002 My Friendica node did the heavy lifting for a while, blocking both .ml, lemmygrad as well if I’m not mistaken - although sadly .world and even lemmy.ca too - back in the day. The issue? Lemmy was just sending way too many activities (upvotes - generated as likes, downvotes, comments etc.) and was generaly overwhelming the server.
They have since reverted the block, but I got a hefty selection of communities spread across multiple servers. I followed
!linuxgaming@level-up.zone
, as well as!linux4noobs@programming.dev
for example - as they are on more dedicated servers, rather than general purpose ones. Sadly, the former did not take off the way I expected it to 😁

I’m just amazed by this. Can you point me to some of the more common places where one could start? I could really use some new dictionaries 😁

petrescatraian@libranet.deto Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•Is there a good OSS grocery list?3·25 days ago@lemmydividebyzero I’m sure that there are solutions. But I’m doing it via my regular notes in markdown. I’m just typing the list before I go out or whenever some things finish (like detergent) and they’re right there. Whenever I put something in my cart I just add a checkmark next to it (I make my list using checkmarks next to the items with
[ ]
).

petrescatraian@libranet.deto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why does it feel like evil is winning globally?2·1 month ago@Skullgrid yes, they are. I don’t contradict you. But in their opinion it really is better to be a dictatorship than a democracy.
The only solution is to just keep fighting for your values in every way possible, as I said, and show people that these are objectively better than what they crave for (or, if objectivity is not possible, subjectivity can help as well)
