Lemmy had a similar SSRF issue recently, the main difference is that it was disclosed using the proper process: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/security/advisories/GHSA-q537-8fr5-cw35

😄

Nowadays I just recommend Piefed.zip.

If someone wants a regional instance they usually figure it out by themselves, also the Piefed instance chooser can help and has a latency indicator: https://piefed.social/post/1337079

For the nationale behind, here’s a list from a post on !fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com that’s a few months old https://lemmy.zip/c/fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com?dataType=Post&pageCursor=P2d1f586&sort=NewComments

• Lemmy.world is too big
• sh.itjust.works names contains “shit”, which can deter users
• lemmy.ca is Canadian-centric
• feddit.org, is German-centric, but technically English speaking too
• dbzer0 is focus centric
• programming.dev is topic-centric
• blahaj is queer-focused
• discuss.tchncs.de has a difficult name
• lemmy.sdf.org does not defederate anyone
• beehaw defederates LW and SJW
• infosec.pub is topic-centric
• aussie.zone is country-centric
• midwest.social is region-centric and admin can power trip at times (https://sopuli.xyz/post/20038037)

Randomly stumbling upon this comment, but thank you for all of your posts

Admins usually don’t want to allow direct registrations without email validation as it makes it too easy for spammers

Provider doesn’t really have any downside

Thank you for chiming in and your decision.

Good luck on your path forward

That might explain it indeed!

You’re welcome 😄

Those write ups are really top notch

As a comment for people reading this, if you are looking for alternative communities (and help spread activity to other instances), there is

• !world@quokk.au
• !politics@sh.itjust.works
• !usa@midwest.social

people giving a chance to argue against unfair actions. Apparently that’s not the case.

A moderator recently stepped down following what was considered unrealistic rule

• https://lemmy.world/post/36281965

That would have never happened on Reddit

Consider joining !fediverse@piefed.social

We have two fediverse communities already, we don’t really need three :)

Then again I suppose if you have to do that then that defeats the purpose of the term, doesn’t it.

Yes, that’s the biggest issue.

Here is a 6 months old thread with other suggestions, some sound completely silly, some of them were nice: https://lemmy.zip/post/33451610

Yes, regularly on https://old.reddit.com/r/RedditAlternatives/ , when threads are posted on !fedibridge@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Reddit users are already familiar with the Threadiverse UI, and usually are reluctant to use anything “Fediverse” due to the issues with content discovery on Mastodon.

Showing them that there is a subpart of the Fediverse that have a similar UI to Reddit and solves most of the content discovery issues of Mastodon can help to make them give the platforms a try.

If you talk to someone who’s not here about the “Threadiverse” they are instantly going to think it’s related to Meta’s Threads.

I like the name I use it a lot, don’t get me wrong, but that’s still an issue.

So many times I’ve looked for it

You can also follow people on Mbin too, and that’s good, but still at the moment, none of the most active Threadiverse software (Lemmy and Piefed) allow their users to.

Those limits might be “artificial”, but on the other hand, most of the userbase here has been around for more than 2 years now, and they still can’t follow other users.
