Welcome Feddit, goodbye Reddit

The Alternatives And Polyverse are pleased to announce the birth of what we believe to be the first server Italian by Lemmy: welcome Feddit, goodbye Reddit.

Lemmy it is a decentralized and free alternative to Reddit that we are sure you already know because we have talked about it a lot, also creating an ad hoc article entitled precisely: what is Lemmy?

If we want to make a comparison Lemmy is to Reddit what Mastodon is to Twitter.

As you know, a few months ago we embarked on the adventure of creating a Le Alternative community on the lemmy.ml server. The experience was, in our opinion, very successful and we therefore decided to throw ourselves into something new.

Welcome Feddit, goodbye Reddit

That's why we created feddit.it, the Italian and decentralized alternative to Reddit!

On Feddit you do not find advertising and there is no profiling.

There are currently some communities that you may already know are already present and active, such as: Digital Ethics, devol it's a community dedicated to the fediverse.

Anyone can create and manage one, currently subject to authorization from the administrators, and the opening of new communities, even and above all not techno-enthusiastic but generalist ones such as football, art, philosophy and books, is welcome. Just make a post in the dedicated section asking what you planned to create and how you planned to moderate it.

In fact, on Feddit the admins will only intervene to limit spam, bots and little else. The creators and moderators of the various sections will take care of maintaining the community.

If you already have an account on lemmy.ml (or similar) you are not obliged to create a new one to interact with the communities present on feddit.it! If you want to create your own community, you need to register.Instance.

We don't hide the emotion, and if this project is possible it is also and above all thanks to your donations who have helped us and continue to help us contain server management costs and always offer new things!

Feddit and the fediverse

As mentioned, Feddit is decentralized and it is also connected with the fediverse (what is that?). There is currently some problem with some Mastodon servers, but this problem should be resolved soon and probably already with the next Lemmy update 1 which we will adopt as soon as possible. This issue only affects some Mastodon servers such as mastodon.uno or secret.level. You might therefore be able to follow the community but you would not be able to write comments.

If you have an account on other Mastodon servers like the one on Bida you hate mastodon.social you should be able to interact with us easily. As? Just search for lealternative@feddit.it and reply to the posts! Feddit currently works perfectly with Friendica.

We also know that the Lemmy developers are also working on interactions with Plume 2, with PeerTube 3 (also to embed videos 4) and more.

In fact, let's remember that Lemmy is still in the BETA version, we are talking about software that is only at version 0.16.3. Nonetheless, the steps forward have been giant and it really seems like a very promising project, which is why we decided to take a gamble on it.

It's already a record

Feddit it also seems to have started off on the right foot: not only that it is the first Lemmy server where Italian is spoken exclusively but it is also managed to become a meme a few days ago before it had even been announced and without ever having officially started! 🎉

One last thing: the Le Alternative community on lemmy.ml will obviously no longer be used but you will have to follow the one at this address: https://feddit.it/c/lealternative ❤️

  1. Remove check that avatars/banners are locally hosted[]
  2. Federate with Plume[]
  3. Support federation with Peertube[]
