I realise this is a known issue and that lemmy.world isn’t the only instance that does this. Also, I’m aware that there are other things affecting federation. But I’m seeing some things not federate, and can’t help thinking that things would be going smoother if all the output from the biggest lemmy instance wasn’t 50%...

Does anyone knows an opensource webradio server that uses activitypub? (I know funkwhale, but I find it more into music than into web radios). I’d like something like castopod but for radios. Thanks all
In response to Joe Biden and the White House enabling ActivityPub federation via Threads, a number of people asked: “Why didn’t the White House just self-host their own Mastodon server?”...
I am interested in checking out the historical growth of a particular community. Lemmy Explorer crawls for data about the Lemmyverse every 24 hours or something, and that data is made available on their website. But I can only find where to download the latest data. Is there somewhere that I can find historical data? Does Lemmy...
