You can limit it to social network. I class peertube, pixelfed as a media plateform rather a social network one.

For migration, can i migrate my account with :

• My followers and giving them my new adress ? Do it update itself or do we have to do it ?
• my contents : communities, bookmark, posts, comments…
• can i delete my account ? Can i delete all my content ? and how easy it is ? There we will see Meta doing an amazing score.
• bonus : can i export settings as colors scheme ? (Accessibility for visually impaired)
• can i give community to new mod ? Can i fork it ?

And let’s add accessibility. :)
We don’t talk much about it and we are doing a very bad job. So the scoring system should also raise this issue : how accessible is the decentralized software.

Or maybe a separate scoring system ? So i will be easier to manage it ?

Yes culture and language should be another metric.

But migrate option, i think they could be integrated because they are a key part of a decentralized system. I you can’t move easily from facebook, reddit, you will stay. And that’s why people stay, they shared life with people, they have build together a community…

There is an article about nomadic identity that explain well those part. :)

The main reason for me creating this is to shine light on services like Bluesky claiming to be Decentralised, but they are in fact not.

Nice :D

Very interesting idea, thank you :)

So for my feedback, i love your project and i can’t wait to see where you will go. Great job :3

For me lemmy is still centered on lemmy.world and theqbiggest community (in any instance) doesn’t help users to move to another community as they will post where there are lot users to reach them.

For myself, I would add two layers for decentralization scoring, maybe a separate scoring :

Ability to migrate

• account and its followers
• community : miror content and move it to another instance with its followers
• export a backup of a server in case of absent admins
• change software. The problem is the golden cage, we thould be able to migrate between lemmy > iceshrimp, mastodon > piefed…mostly between social network. I think nomadic identity can offer us an interesting solution.

Culture diversities

For lemmy, i think content is still too western centric :

• If you reduce lemmy instances by spoken language as french, we only have 1-3 servers, so we have a single point of faillure. On mastodon there are several french instance.
• If i count english content versus indian, chinese, arab, spanish…we are pretty far from being decentralized. And yes, we also need to note their countries regulation as our to get a clear overview.

Yes Lemmy communities are nice but you will notice quickly that there are part you may want to avoid. So each communities, even if they may have the same name offer a different experience. It’s all up to the mod team 😅

Btw, there are other software part of the forumverse as Mbin, NodeBB and PieFed that offer a slightly different experience and UI too

Welcome and enjoy :)

Why ? I use it for plenty website 🤔

It worked ? I received a notification just few minute ago : someone mentionned you. ;)

Thank interesting, it’s hard to imagine something different…

I’m affraid people wouldn’t understand and call it a bug whereas its just users culture and taste. 😅 but thank for sharing this idea, it’s very interesting :3

Thank for the info

Didn’t know that blsky has such feature. Very interesting idea thank for sharing :)

So that mean we could decide some option per label like this :

• gore > text only, remove picture
• nudity > do nothing
• porn > hide
• positive > promote Or even set up the threehold :
• gore > hide if 10 users voted

As for the crowdsource verification, that may join my idea for a mediation team where they browse, class content.

I’m activating your bell since i’m curious of bluesky experience too. :)

It could be a nice idea but the hard part is that we don’t have the same sensibility about negativity. But i agree with you, i meet lot users thatqlowered my mood because they weren’t happy with the name or title…

I think it is easier to tag #GoodNews or #Positive

Sorry for pinging you but maybe it may interest you @rimu@piefed.social

Thank a lot for sharing this with us, i love those data :)

This idea is pretty cool, i hope they will succeed to achieve that. Imo, we lack diversity on the forumverse except maybe mastodon.

It would provide an additional security layer, another governance. They could also benefit a lot from local community and can check vote, email, ip…Other have already mentionned good example with blahaj, beehaw…

On the other hand, it will render the instance more visible.

On my main instance, jlai.lu, i think we don’t manage well sexist speech. They are moderated, we do our best to explain to our users what’s wrong and slowly change them but we don’t have the same sensibility as women.

Men explaining women…So we probably missed lot things.

Yes sorry, it’s perfect. :)

Yep but considering your activities, you can tell them more about PieFed and Mbin. It will help reach a more balanced software’s use. :)

It doesn’t matter, true. We can see every comments in a crossposted post. But on the other hand Blaze is also right. :)

I told him the same thing about its lemmy repport that i wished something less lemmy centric. :)

Thank for your feedback.

Maybe you can tell them ? I’m giving feedback to piefed dev on their UI, suggesting ideas is also part of PieFed’s development. :)

Well, i thought the same about rust and python. i’m not a dev and lack understanding on their component.

My opinion became more nuanced with Lemmy. I have read there spike in ressource usage with lemmy on server.

So, I believe the language matter but also its features, the way you think how people will use it. Its core design.

When you manage a social network, the most fondamental feature is the moderation board. I find this area is lacking on Lemmy. Crosspost ? Duplicate everywhere, on my timeline, i get 4-5 time the same post…so i believe it miss some design thinking.

From what i see, the various lemmy-bot (most of them are written in python i think ?) and alternative frontend are improving lemmy experience. For example, how do you add an mod with lemmy-web-ui ?

I also believe that being written in Rust make it harder for new devs to help. But in later time we will see a change.

I’m not sure if it answer part of your question, but there are area where lemmy can improve : https://join.piefed.social/2024/02/09/comparing-network-utilization-of-lemmy-kbin-and-piefed/

Yes, you are right. Mbin is far more advanced than Lemmy. And PieFed more avanced than Lemmy, less then Mbin.

There are lot neat features in Mbin and PieFed so i wish we consider all options before pushing Lemmy everywhere. I also wish more app support from both of them.

I wish we try to remain neutral because, i strongly believe that the 3 softwares can inspire each other.
