The Nexus Of Privacy looks at the connections between technology, policy, strategy, and justice. We're also on the fediverse at @nexusofprivacy (and @thenexusofprivacy, which is less active but we'll probably be using more in the future).
Thanks for the update Jerry, and as always we appreciate the work!
A lot of people prefer to start by lurking and I think that'll be a lot easier in this situation than it was with Mastodon. On Mastodon,one key question for new people is "how do you find people? to follow?????" and despite a lot of creative solutions t finding people you follow from Twittter, there still aren't any great answers. The question is "how do you find interesting communities or magazines similar to the subreddits I liked". Which also doesn't yet have any great answers but it's an easier problem to address!
Great post. Can I quote a bit of it and add a link in my post on what Kbin, Lemmy, and the fediverse can learn from the experiences with Mastodon? https://privacy.thenexus.today/kbin-lemmy-fediverse-learnings-from-mastodon/
There was a thread on lemmy.ml with somebody suggesting an invite system. One of the devs replied they didn't have the bandwidth to do it but invited others to look at implementing it, not sure if anybody's working on.
It's a good point that the current binary choice of federating vs. not federating isn't flexible enough. Mastodon has a couple of in-between options, not sure if they're the right ones, but at least points to some possibilities.
I don't think this place is inherently any more bot-resistant than reddit, it's just that bots haven't started to target it yet.
