Of course we can create another large set of sublemmies for new people to think that they may post there, but then it becomes apparent, why Ernest from /kbin has named them Magazines, and not Communities…

I will spare you guessing: with so much “community” names and few people using them “comms” become just categories to post and follow. It may work for a social news website (as it was a primary format of Digg and then Reddit), but this will not replace Reddit as place for discussions.

outdoor, travel

Maybe let’s introduce them to Wanderer first?

Productivity

I doubt they would remain here. The Threadiverse is biased towards Open Source and ethical solutions and for any normie not interested in it at all this will bore them quickly…

all about pets, dogs bunnies cats etc

A traditional forum is better for that purpose. One would better build it on NodeBB ;)

european tech workers?

Why would they use specifically the Threadiverse, if they could network better on (larger) Mastodon?

movies, animated movies, series, animated series

There was lemmy.film, but it went belly up. Many of communities from there moved to lemm.ee and then to PieFed.social.

And there is https://adultswim.fan/ .

anime, manga, manwha, webtoon

We literally have got https://ani.social/ .

gaming

https://lemmy.zip/ is skewed towards tech, PCs and gaming

instance for every city? mabe for every region?

It worked for much of Europe, for Canada, Chile, Brazil and Oceania. Regional instances were attempted for US and apart from https://midwest.social/ and https://yall.theatl.social/ (related to Mastodon instance) they failed.

European Union hub

Main problem of Europe Pub is that it isn’t a PieFed instance. Topics would easily direct interested users into their national subs, which already exist on national instances. Nowadays it is a duplication of effort, which either fragments or needlessly centralises the European Threadiverse, depending on its success.

medical advice

IMHO Quora would be a better place for this than Reddit (shall it not enshittify)

Yes, Hack Liberty closed their Matrix and Lemmy instances. Their forum post presents some alarming things on Matrix, but its Problems with Lemmy section consists only of few paragraphs on “federation issues” allegedly being the same as on Matrix (Wrong - not much of Matrix criticism is applicable to Lemmy), defederation and problems with entire Reddit/Lemmy/Tildes/other social news aggregators

For other Fediverse software:

• Misskey is unmistakable which already makes it a good name
• PeerTube is on par with YouTube and is perfectly transparent as a description of software: “YouTube but with P2P”
• Writefreely is another clear but already proper name, definitely better than Medium or Substack (ony Medium’s advantage - it sounds better in non-English languages)
• Loops and Friendica remind better of their purposes than TikTok/Vine and Facebook
• … on the other hand, every Threadiverse app, no matter if it is /kbin, Mbin, Lemmy or PieFed, fails with it

Pole here.

A federated MediaMarkt. Or at least something with shopping, selling something. Definitely a German product. Should be a quality one, but I would name my instance (or a national one) differently, perhaps in a local language.

There is no point in making worldwide Flohmarkt instances (same for Mobilizon), so, the naming should be less a problem than you expect

This is for connecting Bluesky accounts to Mastodon (and the other way too).

An OP wants to use Bluesky app as a client of Mastodon

Did you mean SkyBridge, but in reverse?

Re: 4

No app for Bluesky will help with this, because the purpose for the client (“app”) is to use the API (a Bluesky one right now). And Mastodon’s API provides exactly these not-federating like numbers - the problem you actually try to solve.
The number of likes and boosts has to be fetched directly from an original instance. Moshidon for Android does already like this and Fedilab for Android allows to fetch an entire conversation.
Bluesky clients have no concept for this they needed it.

Fediversion of the meme

Well, Melbourne will at least receive any Australian comment on time, unlike . world :)

Yes, because modlogs on Mastodon are neither public nor federated (they are visible only for admin and mods). Self-reporting for “standards” don’t make sense there.

You will probably have to ask hilariouschaos admins themselves (well, on an alt)

For instances of mainstream Misskey:

https://misskey.de (instance by maintainers of Friendica instances libranet.de and venera.social)
I’m using misskey.social from Italy, but they have some annoying limits for new or less-followed accounts e.g. how many people can you reply to in one post (this would shut you out from some discussions…)

For Sharkey:
https://blahaj.zone by maintainers of namesake Lemmy instance
https://calckey.world or https://sharkey.world by, well, .world
https://procial.tchncs.de

For Iceshrimp: https://fedia.social (from maintainers of fedia.io and infosec.*)

Strange… it works for me

At least, db0’s problem is solved

Indeed, and this is a pinned post on Ye Power Trippin’ Bastards. Posters ask if their bans were justified. Downvotes bury the post, preventing an audience from making their opinion about it.

That means, @this@sh.itjust.works!

!camouflage@sh.itjust.works ?

Maybe a screenshot of obviously wrong take on the Fediverse as a banner?

Indeed, the logo of a meme community is the best source of an official logo. :)
