Well, at least without having to use usernames, etc.

I already know that I am being tracked by the government, etc.

Thank you very much!

Key Differences Between 4chan/8chan and a Lemmy Community

4chan/8chan (now 8kun):

• Type: Imageboard websites where users create and moderate their own boards.
• Structure: Each board is independently run by a board owner with minimal site-wide moderation.
• Content: Known for a wide range of content, including controversial and often unmoderated discussions. These sites have been linked to hate speech, conspiracy theories (like QAnon), and have faced criticism for hosting illegal or harmful material.
• Anonymity: Users typically post anonymously; there is little to no user account structure.
• Moderation: Very limited, mostly left to individual board owners, which has led to significant issues with illegal and harmful content.

Lemmy Community:

• Type: Part of a “federated” social platform inspired by Reddit, where users create topic-based communities (similar to subreddits).
• Structure: Each community is moderated by appointed users, and rules are typically clearer and more strictly enforced than on imageboards.
• Content: Focused on discussion, link sharing, and community engagement, with a strong emphasis on moderation and decentralized control.
• Anonymity: Users have accounts and can build reputations, though they can still use pseudonyms.
• Moderation: Community-driven moderation with platform-level tools to prevent abuse and illegal content.

In short: 4chan/8chan are anonymous, minimally moderated imageboards with a history of controversial content, while Lemmy communities are user-moderated, account-based discussion forums with stronger moderation and decentralized control.

Ahh… Thx.

I just checked Evil Wafrn, and now I’m confused.

What is the difference between Wafrn, and “Evil Wafrn”?

is it just a different Wafrn instance?

Is it a completely different and separate Fediverse platform?

I attempted to log into “Evil Wafrn” using my regular Wafrn login and that failed.

Thank you very much.

Out of curiosity, why DO people dislike bots here?

Not that I am such a major Bot user, but I feel like they could defeated be helpful, as well as add some variety.

If we did, I never noticed anything.

Thank you very much.

Perhaps by using WordPress?

Enter the Fediverse

Or perhaps a Federated Website, and then just link the website when you want to make the linkable list?

I wonder if there could potentially be an instance called “Lemmy Religions Network”, that is basically just an Instance for religious communities to be under?

That way, users who are specifically interested and looking for religious communities know what to look for.

Sure, I’ll take it.

For OpenChristian mainly.

Although, if it goes well, I might consider potentially attempting to expand it by bringing other subs like:

Christianity

Progressive_Islam,

DebateReligion

Jewish

or others

I have already done Queer_Muslims

@ocean@lemmy.selfhostcat.com

I wouldn’t mind the extra help.

Which religion are you/looking for?

EDIT: OpenChristian is now up.

Somebody should call her Madam President to her face.

Am I the only person who thinks that this image should be made into a meme?

Like, keep posting it relentlessly and force the right-wingers to keep constantly seeing it?

Plus it’s open source, and Andrew has explicitly stated that he doesn’t mind if other people steal the idea and use it.

Thank you very much.

I thought of it when I noticed that most Lemmy Instances disable media hosting due to storage and bandwidth limitations.

When i asked around, the people who I asked kept recommending me PeerTube and Pixelfed.

But, at least IMO, while still great Fediverse Platforms, not that great at hosting media for other platforms.
