Do you know any Lemmy instances not federated with other ones, living by themselves? Do you know any interesting or creative use case for a not federated instance?

          No. Mastadon is a microblog/twitter platform. While lemmy is a link aggregator/reddit.

              No clue, i had to tap out while looking at it. That was a hot mess, and i feel dumber for having read anything there.

                I’m not sure I get it either. Is it just a url to a specific Scored community or somehow its own instance?

                It doesn’t mention activity pub or federation. I think it’s just another reddit clone. SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world (does that ping work?)

              doesn’t look like either mastodon or lemmy, although its structure is similar to lemmy; from the sidebar it appears they are running something called “scored” which I don’t know anything about

          they are different server platforms using the same protocol for different purposes. mastodon == federating twitter, ie ‘old man shouts into the cloud’. lemmy == federating reddit, ie threaded discussions.

          there are so many perfectly good non-federating server products as to make this question moot. lemmy is the wrong platform for a stand-alone environment.

                Well now hang on. Not all jerks on the fediverse are bad actors. I’m a jerk, but I’m a GREAT actor!
