So I know there’s some drama with lemmy.world and lemmy.ml. I’m passingly familiar with the .ml stuff (that they have a large and vocal population of tankies and red-fash types), but what’s the deal with lemmy.world?

Interesting to hear.

I’m super pumped for the project, but am largely waiting to get properly set up with it until there’s a good app and I can on-board the friends and family all in one go. Really hoping to get them all off TikTok/YT Shorts/Reels/whatever corporate and nation run projects the kids are using these days.

Oh, is loops going to be run as a totally separate service?

I’m not well educated on their project (nor on activity pub beyond a surface level understanding), but it was my understanding that is was going to be run as a sub-service of pixelfed. Don’t suppose you can point to any resources on that topic?

Moderately certain this is already happening, as evidenced by loops showing up so often in my “all” tab. If I understand correctly (and for the love of all that is good, someone please correct me if I’m wrong), Loops is “hosted” via pixelfed.
