This whole Lemmy thing is just a component of the “federated universe “, to include Mastodon, Kbin, and various other nodes.

The report highlights

rapid user growth (as well as a massive influx of spam bots)

The rumours about Meta dipping into the fediverse with a microblogging server

FBI raids on Anarchist servers

Other fun stuff that might be of interest to new people like me who are like a babe wandering the wood.👶
