I am working on a multi lemmy manager that Id love to get some alpha testers to.

Imo. This is the opposite of having a too big of a community. I think this is just a disadvantage of federation that we will eventually have to live with. The opposite is a bigger problem in my opinion, where one entity controls too much of the power.

What we really need is a better system, be it an app or chrome extension where it makes it easier for us to manage these instances version of their communities.

I don't know what that looks like but the answer isn't difficult to come up with because for the most part, all the lemmies will function the same as each other.

This is actually a very compelling OSS project to make. A Lemmy manager like rss readers of past.

More like throw more $$$ at the problem has been the solution.

Right now, we are only able to view an instance's specific community, but I'd love to be able to view what's popular in that instance, especially that I do not know what communities that instance has.

EDIT And this is where it gets confusing...

If you want to view another instance from your home instance you need to do https://lemmy.world/c/thecommunityyouwanttoview@lemmy.ml

But there is no https://lemmy.world/c/lemmy.ml <-- this will return a 4040

Ideally there would be a https://lemmy.world/c/all@lemmy.ml or a https://lemmy.world/c/popular@lemmy.ml

Will probably move my instance there. Have it on digital ocean.

There's no standard atm but I don't know why it would be an issue frankly. Mostly because that's the whole point of this federation.

[-] Kris@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

Isn't that the whole point of Lemmy? So there's no community that's too big to fail?

This is how it's done on mastodon

Something about lemmy.ml admin having odd views posted on their reddit account. Something I read but didn't really look into so take what I said with a grain of salt.

[-] Kris@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

That would be awesome actually.

Did Christian mention anything about opensourcing the client?
