What i like about it:

  • Can filter by showing who is online
  • can show the list of compatibility questions the community think are the most important
  • allow searching for questions to answers. if there are topics that are particularly important to you, or if you want to find out the answers to questions you thought are particularly important in someone else's profile. * shows the gender ratio on the website, the transparency is nice

One of the developers of wayback (A new X11 server on top of wayland for desktops) gave a talk about it.

This a part of the slide (page 9):

Xlibre from the distro perspective

  • A fork of X that someone else is doing?
  • Sounds great in theory! In practice, distros are rejecting it because...
  • The project is reactionary…
  • Deleted everything relating to Wayland, meaning distros still have...

Having the algorithms be open to review for all is useful, As some recently claimed the algorithms of closed source websites are optimized for addictiveness and making you spent as much time on the website as possible.

One nice feature is that people are only shown once. in some dating website you can't really hide profiles which you already reviewed so that leads to time wasting (and probably more money for the company, because you then need a paid subscription for a longer duration of time...

Reportedly once a community is created it can't be deleted. and as long as someone seeds it it exists. that should help avoid excessive censorship that exist for example on reddit.

Nice website, but could use a "to meet new people" under the "looking for" field (alovoa has this). if it helps people be more social it could help with getting to know people and developing a romantic interest

Reportedly has zero fees, people keep saying it is underrated , has a foundation that funds development and a fairly active development of the code base.

I like that it can show only the users who are currently online , you can quote messages when replying and can edit your messages after sending them . Plus it is open source and the developer is receptive to feedback (adding the ability to see who is online is an external request).

What i like about it:

  • you can subscribe to posts and comments and get notifications for new comments. thats helpful if a certain topic is particularly meaningful to you and you can follow the discussion, you also have to click to mark something is read so you can slowly and incrementally read stuff, this also seems to work well even for posts made on lemmy.

  • topics easily allow you to find good communities

  • there is a wiki system like reddit.

  • you can write notes about certain users,...

Can be used to see the number of players a open source has.
