Edit: I realise I posed this in the wrong community, so I’m making this a crosspost and promotion for [email protected] a place to help grow the Fediverse.
Check it out.
When you want to share a image you found on PieFed, don’t download and share the image, just share the PieFed link.
This way the people or person you’re sharing it with might discover PieFed without you pushing it.
This will also improve SEO, and PieFed etc. might start popping up on search engine results more, and people will start to see and trust the Fediverse more.
This articulates my frustration with the internet/lemmy extremely well. I’ve saved it for future reference and I’m optimistically hopeful for the future when maybe this isn’t something so many people need to see.
Why are you ruining my Perfect world of Linux nerds who havent showered in a month and whose most used word is PsyOP calling wach other Nazis and Tankies while literally wanting the same thing, just one of them beging too degenerate to understand the beauty of torturing people?
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: [email protected]
A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.
Rules
The rules for behavior are a straight carry over of Mastodon.World’s rules. You can click the link but we’ve reposted them here in brief, as a guideline. We will continue to use the Mastodon.World rules as the master list. Over all, be nice to each other and remember this isn’t a community built around debate. For the rules about formatting your posts, scroll down to number 2.
1. Follow the rules of Mastodon.world, which can be found here.
A. Provide an inclusive and supportive environment. This means if it isn’t rulebreaking and we can’t be supportive to them then we probably shouldn’t engage.
B. No illegal content.
C. Use content warnings where appropriate. This means mark your submissions NSFW if need be.
D. No uncivil behavior. This includes, but is not limited to: Name Calling; Bullying; Trolling; Disruptive Commenting; or Personal Criticisms.
E. No Harrassment. As an example in relation to Transgender people this includes, deadnaming, misgendering, and promotion of conversion therapy. Similarly Misogyny, Misandry, and Racism are also banned here.
2. Include a community or instance title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities or instances all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.
3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.
Formatting
Please include this following format in your post:
A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.
Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?
A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn’t get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn’t actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.

Why are you advertising this to a normie?

This is a great idea!
People follow content, not platforms. The more people are exposed to great content, the more diverse the fediverse becomes.
Will I tested it a couple days ago and it didn’t work so YMMV I guess.
PieFed was overrun by bots then and required login. But that seems to be fixed now
That’s explains that then, thanks!
Tried doing this, scared my friends by sending them weird links, got blocked a few times.
Modern internet users are such cowards, but will still manage to install a virus.
A number of them think that Linux is a security hazard, like it’s extra susceptible to viruses
Your friends blocked you? What links specifically did you share, some look very dodgy but piefed.social looks fine
Mastodon links
There’s already at least one comment there who noticed the source. Cool.
