@Wigglehard@exploding-heads.com I have set up a community to discuss these types of matter at https://exploding-heads.com/c/totalitarian_regimes
Let me know if you are ok with the name and the parameters I have laid out in the sidebar.
I created an announcements https://exploding-heads.com/c/announcements community
Yes, but a couple of requests
Sound fair?
The other nice thing is as you find good communities on other instances and subscribe to them through Exploding Heads, they appear under “All” on Exploding Heads helping others discover them as well.
You can copy the URL of the community from the address bar in your browser and insert it in your ExplodingvHeads search field. Wait a few seconds, the community will appear below. Then click on it and hit subscribe.

It is a good upgrade, but there have been some bug reports that concern me. I will check again this weekend and see if they have been dealt with.
Lemmy users can now be followed. Just visit a user profile from another platform like Mastodon, and click the follow button, then you will receive new posts and comments in the timeline.
Votes are now federated as private. This prevents other platforms from showing who voted on a given post, and it also means that Lemmy now counts votes from Mastodon.
This release also improves compatibility with Pleroma. If you previously had trouble interacting between Pleroma and Lemmy, give it another try.
We’ve extracted the main federation logic into its own library, activitypub-federation-rust. It is open source and can be used by other projects to implement Activitypub federation, without having to reinvent the wheel. The library helps with handling HTTP signatures, sending and receiving activities, fetching remote objects and more.
