A community dedicated to fediverse news and discussion.
Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".
Getting started on Fediverse;
Does anyone know if / how well the federation between Iceshrimp and Lemmy works?
-❔ How are posts from Lemmy (with headline + URL) displayed on Iceshrimp?
-❔ Can you find Lemmy posts in Iceshrimp by searching for the URL?
-❔ Can you follow Lemmy communities from Iceshrimp?
-❔ Can you post to Lemmy communities from Iceshrimp?
The first three points work with Sharkey (one of the Misskey/Firefish forks), but unfortunately posting does not.
@maegul @Subversivo @fediverse @fediversenews what is this, for the unacquainted? Is it a full activitypub server or just the front-end?
@maegul @Subversivo @fediverse @fediversenews I'm not a coder, so I'm curious what advantages C# brings to the table
@mick_collins @Subversivo @fediverse @fediversenews
I'm not familiar enough (or at all) with C#, but AFAICT, it could make an instance more stable, as firefish and misskey have struggled with handling a decent amount of users and C# could be a faster system for the server.
Also, a re-write sometimes is a good thing. And, developers have different preferences for languages, so having a C# project around enables C# devs to more easily contribute to the fedi.
ASP.NET Core (web framework for C#) is one of the best available, when you need great performance. Also, C# is pretty popular and that means potentially more contributors.
