  • You only need a Peertube account – and the app, if required – if you’re a content creator and want to upload your own videos. You can watch videos without needing any account at all, either in your browser or on your mobile using an app, such as the Peertube app or NewPipe. SepiaSearch offers a comprehensive video search (covering a large number of selected instances).

    If you want to subscribe to channels, watch, share or comment on videos in the Fediverse, you can do so from your Fediverse account, i.e. from Friendica, Mastodon, Sharkey, etc. You can also subscribe to Peertube channels and watch videos using your Lemmy account. I’m not sure, though, if all the features are available with Lemmy.

  • (Almost) all services (except Mastodon) have had quote posts for years/decades.

    (Sharkey, Misskey, Friendica, Hubzilla, Pleroma, Akkoma, etc.)

  • Yes, this is Loops: "Loops is a short video sharing platform.".

    However, if I am correctly informed, the planned federation with the Fediverse has still not been realised.

    Why " with no required registration"? Where can you simply share videos without any account?

  • If you select ‘Forum Discussions’ under ‘What type of content do you want to see or share?’, NodeBB, Lemmy, mbin, Piefed and Lotide are then recommended. That fits well.

    But if you select ‘Social Media Post + ’Forum Discussions", Mastodon, Misskey and other microblogging services are recommended, as well as Lemmy. But not mbin, which actually offers exactly this combination, and also not Friendica, which can do micro-/macroblogging, but also offers forums/groups and federates best with both directions.

    So it's perhaps a little under-complex, but nicely done and a good new contact point for interested people.

  • Is this like Tumblr or something?

    I think Misskey and its forks are among the Fediverse services that are not modelled on a specific commercial platform, but have created something completely their own.

    The forks differ in details (see comparison), but the user experience is relatively similar.

  • Von Deinem Lemmy-Account aus kannst Du keinen Einzel-Accounts (wie z.B. Mastodon) folgen, nur Gruppenaccounts (wie Lemmy-Communitys, nbin-Magazines oder auch Peertube-Kanäle) abonnieren.

    Von Mastodon aus kannst Du Deinem Lemmy-Account folgen. Dafür https://feddit.org/u/DNDnews oder @dndnews@feddit.org ins Suchfeld von Mastodon und dann folgen.

    Communitys kannst Du auf die gleiche Weise abonnieren von Mastodon aus oder auch Lemmy-Beiträge dort liken oder teilen, indem Du deren URL ins Suchfeld kopierst.

  • Open Library is the main data source for Bookwyrm for book data. Bookwyrm is an application in the Fediverse that can be used to find and write reviews of books. I wouldn't see that as a contradiction.

  • The article in the JoinFediverseWiki is very short. It could be expanded a little. I used to have an editor account for the wiki, maybe I'll find the time to reactivate it.

  • The mastodon apps work, but generally only offer the mastodon functions. Fedilab may offer a little more.

    There is also Dhaaga: A "client for various social networking platforms and protocols.

    edit: sorry, forgot to read that you are looking for iOs

  • Yes, Lemmy accounts can only follow/subscribe to groups (besides Lemmy also mbin, piefed + also Peertube), but not individual accounts. A Lemmy account can only communicate with individual accounts if they write something in a community. That is one of the aims of mbin, to connect them: The structure of communities /magazines + a microblog feed.

  • Yes, Sharkey is a microblogging service and it can't create headings, but it still displays them correctly. Among other things, this is better than with Mastodon.

  • This is the case with all content (posts + replies) on Mastodon, as it appears separately in the timeline. In this case, it has nothing to do with Lemmy.

  • Yes, you can do this from almost anywhere in the Fediverse. As Mastodon does not recognise headings, the first paragraph becomes the heading. This means that it looks better on Lemmy if you put the community tag at the end of the post and start with a content-related introduction.

  • Are you sure this is a serious offer? This seems suspicious to me: "If you do not want or do not care about having your own server, but still want to be part of the fediverse. With these service packages you get an account at our flagship instances at a low cost. Share a group package with your friends and make it even cheaper!"

    Do I understand correctly that you have to pay 29.99 just to get an account on their "flagship instance"? or how is it to be understood?

  • There's also Managed Hosting: Hosting a Fediverse instance (a list of providers): "However, there are hosting companies that can take care of the installation and technical maintenance for you. You get a pre-installed application, mainly Mastodon, which is also technically maintained. You yourself are an admin and can do some things in the application’s admin menu, such as manage your own users. This way, you can also allow a larger group of people to access the Fediverse."
