It’s been over for so long that it’s almost forgotten, huh? Here’s the announcement: https://beehaw.org/post/567170
As I remember, it was about open registration policy and poor moderation.
I’m a male, 23 yo software developer. Admin of lemy.lol instance.

Good to hear you’re ok buddy 🙏
iusearchlinux.fyi gone too. I’m glad feddit.ch at least announced this.
Yes, you can shoot me from there and you’re right but I don’t see much difference between Matrix clients. The experience is pretty common between them. Synapse is de facto standard.
I don’t think XMPP is simpler than Matrix. With my insufficient knowledge; XMPP servers and clients have different standards. Some supports audio/video calls, some requires encryption while other maybe not etc.
Matrix has a standard set of features and all software around it built for those features. TBH I find Matrix pretty instable lately tho.
“Ubuntu added on top” you mean Snap? No thanks :)
With Lemmy 0.19, you can block instances individually FYI.
You need to pass host header. But if you really want to hide your IP, you need to proxy your outgoing activities too.
Yes. But you can still do that, there are so many unmoderated communities anyway.
90% of Lemmy’s storage/bandwidth load comes from the top 100 communities. So communities with lil activity probably wouldn’t create much of a burden.
And yes, both instances must register on the site and choose which instances they allow. Either allowing instances explicitly or with some filters.
Maybe. I need to check Kbin API docs.
Rust? eww 🤮. Someone should rewrite it in Java(!)
Thank you for the suggestions. I just created an account on jabber.hot-chilli.net and downloaded Gajim. It looks really cool!
I’ve used Matrix for months and agree with most points. I would like to try XMPP but it is clear that it does not have the best onboarding experience.
The problem I’ve observed with XMPP as an outsider is the lack of a standard. Each server or client has its own supported features and I’m not sure which one to choose.
Which client would you recommend?
I’ve never used XMPP. How would one compare it with Matrix?
It wasn’t but now it does I guess. I just searched a community didn’t existed locally on my instance and I got same result as you. No votes, no comments. I think this is enough to open an issue in the Lemmy repo.
You need to search them to make them available to your instance. You can also use lemmony or lemmy community seeder to automate it if you care enough.
Does the receiver instance federate that like object to other instances? If not, it is shit for sure.
