Mastodon HAS rss support.

Just add “.RSS” to your mastodon URL. This should work for accounts, tags and possibly for other feeds/streams.

“Am I a joke to you?”

Personally, I love Bludit as it is really simple, flat-file and perfect for blogging.

However, you could also look into WriteFreely if you want something with ActivityPub (= Fediverse). Feature wise very very plain and simple, but might noch give you most of the bells and whistles as other platforms would do it. Think of it as an alternative to “Medium”.

Gancio

Also, check out https://fediverse.party/en/miscellaneous/ for a comprehensive list of services/apps available in the fediverse.

Thats why you should use a VPN when you are out and about. 🙏

Feature rich and never had an issue with them. Prices are fine imho.

That these things in you plate were once feeling, breathing, loving and dreaming individuals. We don’t have the right to exploit and kill them, just because we can.

This would incentivise instances to keep growing, as more users would potentially mean more income. I don’t think that this is a good idea as it conflicts the decentralized nature of the fediverse.

I would suggest that we promote donations more. Seriously, nobody is talking about that stuff.

Furthermore, “money” doesn’t always fix a communities infrastructure issues - people do. Most of the time, admins are a one-person-army. If people would take over work (like moderation, implementing helpful features in code, …) more often, that might help out the admins more than just throwing money at them.

It is the same as with a lot of open source communities: It’s not all about the money, it’s about people getting active and involved and helping each other out.

Definitely NOT writefreely. It is a nice tool, if you want to have a minimalistic blog others on the fediverse can follow, but it is extremly bad at interacting with literally anything, yet. (This might change in the future, but at the moment, WF is not really made for your use case.)

Just to be clear: Eating bugs is not vegan. Vegans eat plants.

That is kind an off logic. Sounds more like an excuse for not taking action than anything else. I bet you can dismantle your arguments on your own in no time of you try.

Odysee is a blockchain-based media platform.

Ah hell no! I’m not even going to touch that with a 10ft pole.

Done. Seems like it worked fine. I can see it on lemmy.world.

Sure! I just deleted it on my end. Post still seems to be on lemmy.world. I’ll wait a little and see if the deletion gets federated and then repost.

Awesome! Somehow, I love the quirkiness of federated platforms. Kind of gives it character. 😆

Well, that’s kind of a wild bug there. 🤷

I just edited the crosspost in hope that it would refederate, but I don’t think it worked as expected. Sorry.

I actually did when I created the post. (See the list of crossposts.)

But thanks for reminding people and pointing out other interesting comms.

It looks like the graph from the “Mastodon user count” bot: https://mastodon.social/@mastodonusercount

However, this bot counts MASTODON users - not fediverse users. The graph has probably nothing to do with reddit exodus but with Musks announcement that birdsite users can only see 300 posts until they register and pay.

No worries. Just the usual downfall of digital society. No special occasion. 😅
