I run a few groups, like @fediversenews@venera.social, mostly on Friendica. It’s okay, but Friendica resembles Facebook Groups more than Reddit. I also like the moderation options that Lemmy has.

Currently, I’m testing jerboa, which is an Android client for Lemmy. It’s in alpha, has a few hiccups, but it’s coming along nicely.

Personally, I hope the #RedditMigration spurs adoption of more Fediverse server software. And I hope Mastodon users continue to interact with Lemmy and Kbin.

All that said, as a mod of a Reddit community (r/Sizz) I somewhat regret giving Reddit all that content. They have nerve charging so much for API access!

Hopefully, we can build a better version of social media that focuses on protocols, not platforms.

Ah. You sound like you’ve looked at the code, can you say if there’s some sort of admin command to sync a whole instance?

I’ve looked at some stuff… More to get an understanding of ActivityPub in specific.

I do not particularly know of a specific “sync everything” command and even if there was one that would be problematic… Sync everything… as in what exists right now? or forever in perpetuity?

The only way I can think of doing it right now would be to grab a list of all the communities on a server and just script searching for them all one by one. That would effectively sync everything forever for all the communities that currently exist.

Yeah, that would work. Paging @cephi@lemmy.bunbi.net, who started this discussion and who does self-host. To save you a click, here’s the libraries you could use for that.
