@rl_dane @amin @samd the ability to follow RSS Feeds directly is one of the reasons I still have a #Friendica account and haven't switched over 100% to #mbin
@GeePawHill #mbin has the same issue, and it's a Fediverse service. So it's not just BSky.

Also: i talk up the idea of #Lemmy and #Mbin and #Piefed and the #Threadiverse in the idea on surfacing content...
Much of that idea was spurred by this from Piefed on it's potential feed format that can pull in multiple other community fediverse acocunts into one feed:
https://join.piefed.social/2025/04/30/how-piefed-federates-feeds-aka-multi-reddits-or-multi-comms/
And would love to hear what @rimu thinks of my riffing on this for discovery fedi wide, and if he had notes.
I think Lemmy, Mbin and Piefed will soon see an influx of new users.
Reddit is going to use Sam Altmans sketchy iris-scanning "Orb" to verify users.
What in the Black Mirror is this shit?
I really like the idea of this #Lemmy community: https://feddit.online/c/dadforaminute@lemmy.world . I wish it were more active.
Most on the Fediverse can follow it at, and post to it at: @dadforaminute
Note. Those on my Friendica instance can't access lemmy.world because the 240K requests per day coming in from Lemmy instances overwhelmed the server and the database, and I had to block Lemmy. Friendica just can't handle it.
So, I think I'm almost ready for some open beta of the registration on my project. Yay me? Summary is as follows: 1. I want to run a federated discussion forum using #Mbin 2. Because I will want to put another services as a part of the same project/domain, including but not limited to #mobilizon, and maybe even multi-user #writefreely, I need something to handle authentication and user access to all of them 3. Initially I wanted to go with #Zitadel, but I realised that it has baked in First and Last name required fields, and to be honest, I am absolutely not interested in this data, and even explicitly don't want to have to keep and process it; so I don't really want to make my users have to fill this out 4. I stumbled upon #authentik, and while I appreciate possibility of setting up complex auth flows and such without the need to touch raw code, it seemed a little bit daunting. 5. I found a set of really awesome tutorials by Cooptonian on YouTube, and I managed to solve not only setup, connecting the client apps, emails and password recovery, but also I got a way better grip on the inner workings of Authentik, and feel confident that if I need to do some minor tweaks to it, I will be able to. 6. I hope I will deploy the pemultimate flow today, that is the signup/invitation flow, and I will be ready to invite selected amount of people for some tests of the project, so hang on tight!
If you got that far, thank you for reading, I will write more on that (and unveil a related thing!) in the upcoming days, so come back! You can also give this blog a follow at https://readme.makary.online, on your RSS reader at https://readme.makary.online/feed, or on your favourite Mastodon/Fediverse account at @makary@readme.makary.online Be warned tho, that it was created with more technical posts in mind!
With lemm.ee, I believe the 2nd largest #Lemmy instance, shutting down in a few weeks, some of their more active users have moved to my #PieFed server (feddit.online). Tonight I need to double the memory on the app server. And the DB server that was idling at 23% CPU until this morning is now 100% since late morning. I need to maybe scale it up as well.
I know piefed.social scaled up yesterday, and they've been much harder hit than I have. I wonder how other #Lemmy and #MBIN servers are being impacted by this. Anyone know?

When we made a post asking about Lemmy instances, we got so many replies for not only #Lemmy instances but also about #MBin and #PieFed! Thanks for your support!
We ultimately ended up choosing https://lemm.ee as the instance for our official community. You can join it here: https://lemm.ee/c/TenacityAudio. Please spread the word far and wide to let everyone know that we have an official place of discussion again! This has been a long time in the making and it's finally here!
