How does that “help” their feed? What possible benefit could there be in using a bot to subscribe willy-nilly to every community out there, no matter how shitty it is?

I don’t know… You made it sound like the only way for me to have more communities show up in my All feed on lemmy.ca would be if a volunteer on lemmy.ca, be it a bot or mod, subscribed to all the communities they could find. Hense seeing top posts from All communities. And I only meant for a bot or mod to just subscribe. Not to repost everything.

If that isn’t how it works, sorry. It is why I asked if that would work or not.


They have over a billion monthly users, so I’m not sure they’re dead. Unless you were being sarcastic.

But… You reminded me I’ve been wanting to look into using PixelFed.


So, would it be wise and helpful for a mod or bot per instance to subscribe to as many communities as possible to help the instance’s feed?




There are 1 billion active users on Instagram and those users were invited to Threads using an existing account. Celebrities, businesses, streamers, etc. all popped up on Threads within the first few hours of public release.

I’m a big nerd and just learned about the fediverse within recent months. Everyone else I know who uses Twitter and Threads have no clue what Mastodon is.



Correct, RCS is only for Android. Right now it’s limited to Google Messages app and Samsung’s default texting app.

My wife has an iPhone and I run Android. Been that way for a decade or more now. Never an issue for her what colour my texts were.

And these days we use Telegram. Signal, FB Messenger, WhatsApp… There are dozens of chat apps out there that work cross-platform easily.


This just makes too much sense.


When is the last time you used it? It was like that a while back but recent updates have my experience near flawless.


What are you using now? I’m using Connect for Lemmy and it feels very close to Sync because of gestures. I’ll be torn when Sync comes out because I’m enjoying this so much. (And Connect is Canadian like me. Haha)


It’s a game to me to find other users from the same instance. Hello fellow lemmy.ca user!


Good idea! Here’s my comment to do the same.



Thank you for asking this. I’m off the same mindset as you and thought Threads and Bluesky joining the Fediverse would be a benefit, not a con. I’ll be monitoring replies…

I see the potential with Lemmy. I was able to adapt to this far quicker than Mastodon. Albeit I was more of a Reddit user and barely touched Twitter.

What I’m curious about is how things will fair once the two competitors of Twitter come out soon. - Threads and Bluesky.
