I am looking to change my instance since many defederation and censorship decisions on lemmy.world.

Anyone knows of any instance that has a rule against defederation and is more free speech oriented. Of course I am looking for an instance that forbids illegal content like CP. But I want an instance that does not censor hate speech!

The instance should be hopefully federated with mostly everyone, unless defederated because of CP. I was considering lemm.ee, but I saw a comment from an admin saying that they could consider defederation if certain propaganda reaches front page.

Before anyone accuses me of anything, I just want to be exposed to different viewpoints, and I am not offended so easily, so I can tolerate offensive content. What is important is that the rules on defederation dont change in the future.

Is there any statistic on the number of users from each country on lemmy.world?

It would be interesting to see, I have a feeling that it is largely USA users. Maybe @ruud@lemmy.world has the stats?

Lots of great changes have been added by our growing team of contributors as highlighted below. If you want to join the team come and say hello at the team discussion on Matrix

Please note that some lemmy servers are still under pressure, so you may see unexpected error messages.

Updates should appear on TestFlight and Play Store today.

v0.10.6 Release

iOS:

• TestFlight (will be visible later today)

Android:

• GitHub
• Play Store
• If you want to stay up to date with the latest releases before it gets on Play Store or F-Droid, checkout Obtainium

Hello everyone! We heard you about the the full height preview issues. Just some context we were trying to fix some scroll jittery issues on the card view feed and one approach was limiting the preview height however turns out that's a desired feature so we're going to re approach the problem so we can keep full height images in the preview.

Change log

• Bring back full height preview in card view
• Fixed iOS photo orientation for uploads
• Added horizontal scroll to post title in navbar like RIF had
• Accessibility enhancement for upvote/downvote
• Small bug fixes

What's coming

• Comment Style customizations
• Push notifications - we're gonna balance this and take our time on our approach as we want to maintain privacy focused permissions.
• Ultra compact view. Really we will be adding a 3rd view type so we will have card, list, and compact. The current compact view will become list

Is there any website that shows the federation status between instances in some graphical way like Venn diagram or whatever?

I found this project on Github. People who like old reddit look might find it interesting.

Hey there, this community is to help test pre-release versions of Thunder!

I will be releasing pre-release versions here so that anyone that is interested can help out with general testing to find any major bugs or issues that would otherwise affect the larger amount of users who are currently in the alpha-releases.

As such, be fully prepared to know that these pre-release versions may contain major bugs which could cause Thunder to crash or behave unexpectedly. When testing a new pre-release version posted here, please try to limit the posts to bugs, and not feature requests.

As these are pre-release versions, I will most likely not use GitHub as a way to send out these pre-releases. I am trying to find an alternative site to upload the corresponding APK/IPA files, so feel free to suggest any sites that may fit that purpose!

Thanks again for all the support!

I would also like to ask if anyone is interested in becoming a moderator for this community or the main Thunder community. It has been growing at a incredible pace, and it is becoming more and more difficult for me to look through posts and answer all the questions that people may have.
