Welcome! Have a good time!
If you happen to speak German you may want to take a look at !digitales_weichenstellen@piefed.social
a brand new community about reducing digital dependencies on US/Big Tech. I started it but it'll go nowhere without...becoming a community. It's in German in order to also be a low-threshold offer for people new to the subject, e. g. curious because of the Digital Independence Day initiative.
Cool!
I've just added that community to https://lemmy-federate.com/ which will help it get more activity. Keep posting!
I really hope this platform kicks off, finding alternatives to USA based platform is always welcomed!
We need an app.
I'm using Boost personally (others work as well like Interstellar, ...) or you can download the piefed app on the site
This is fantastic. Happy to partake in this with everyone. I uninstalled my Reddit app finally, done with it.
Welcome!
Maybe I should edit it to only keep the first 3
Test
Seems reasonable, as ~europe@piefed.social already seems to do a good job being a general purpose European feed. :)
Done!
That post on Reddit hit over 130,000 views.
Have we seen a lot of new accounts here over the last ~48h ?
The development is even clearer when hiding halfyear active users:
Whoa
...Also feel free to donate. The developer(s) are almost literally working for peanuts!
