Is there a way to add servers on the same app? Like if you use Lemmy. Zip , could you add other instances/servers and switch between them just as easy as you do communities? If this feature exists could someone explain how to me?
If not, this needs to be a thing. Add to that pixelfed, piefed and mastodon posts…
If it’s all decentralized, what would prevent us from having it all in one single app. With maybe siloing of the different servers, so the serverwide rules are still inforceable.
But essentially, the all feed would really be all.
I was under the impression that i could see any and all post/community provided it doesn’t violate the rules of the server I’m on. I’m figuring out this isn’t quite the case…
Yet i get the feeling there’s a lot I’m potentially missing. I keep seeing dead links, seemingly abandoned posts/communities with little to no activity…
I just don’t know for sure. Also how do people figure out which server to join? How do you know for example of a certain community you’re interested in is present in server A or b?
Maybe this is a really stupid question, and the answer is so obvious its self-explanatory. But i have to admit I’m lost
Edit: tldr: i want to see non-lemmy fediverse content in the same app. Or if this is not (yet) possible, i wanted suggestions on how to configure my setup so i somehow see everything (i thought) i was missing. Also thank you everyone who corner so far for being so kind in your answers, much appreciated!
You’re on lemmy.zip, and on most lemmy servers - assuming the code hasn’t been tampered with too much - you can see which fediverse instances it blocks. And lemmy.zip doesn’t block a lot with just 9 blocked instances. Compare that not the lemmy server my account is on, feddit.dk which has 611 blocked instances.
(used this cursed regex for counting)
^(?!.*(?:\.develop|\.service[^s]|\.main|\.neets|\.gleasonator).*).*\.\w+\s*[^\.\d-+]But oh, I might’ve misunderstood a bit, you’re talking about being able to see non-lemmy fediverse content? Yeah, that’d be neat.
Yes! Exactly. You have worded it much better. What i want is to ideally use 1 app to see Lemmy and non Lemmy fediverse content. Maybe this is not yet possible, that might be what I’m confused about.
Short of that, I’d be willing to use 2 apps, or whatever to basically see all the Twitter/Reddit/Instagram posts (for lack of better discriptive words) opensource alternatives.
