Lemmy.World at Mastodon (mastodon.world)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by lwadmin@lemmy.world to c/lemmyworld@lemmy.world
 

Hey everyone!

So we've been trying our best to listen to members of the community on how we provide updates and information to you fine folks! To that end, we would like to welcome a new secondary, fedi-friendly avenue, Mastodon.

https://mastodon.world/@LemmyWorld

We will be posting updates here in ADDITION to our normal !lemmyworld@lemmy.world community. As both a supplement to our Discord server and a place for the community to directly interact with us via micro-blogging.

We feel this opens up a few neat doors for sure to keep communication open and transparent.

See you there ๐Ÿ˜‰

a supplement to our Discord server

I, for one, have been hoping for "replacement" instead of "supplement" (for Free Software reasons), but baby steps, I guess!

Pretty wild to complain to a team that runs a lemmy and mastodon instance about not doing enough for FOSS.

I've heard a reason for choosing Discord is the good moderation tools. I don't know enough to comment on that so I just hope that free software alternatives improves their moderation tools.

When you value software freedom for yourself and others then it's actually pretty dull and obvious to express concern. It's like a coworker just started smoking.

It's weird to rely on proprietary when you can use Matrix spaces.
