Salpa fusiformis

From (Spanish) Las salpas, las extrañas criaturas que llenan las playas de Málaga

estos invertebrados no tienen nada que ver con las medusas, por lo que no son urticantes, (…)

“Son el paso intermedio entre los invertebrados y los vertebrados, puesto que tienen una primitiva columna, y forman parte del plancton, la sopa marina que es la base de la cadena alimenticia en el mar”, ha manifestado.

These invertebrates have nothing to do with jellyfish, so they are not stinging, (…)

“They are the intermediate step between invertebrates and vertebrates, since they have a primitive column, and they are part of plankton, the marine soup that is the base of the food chain in the sea,” he said.

AFAIK that would be ok, a lot of subreddits don’t even require the posts to be approved, so that would be the same as setting your sub to not require approving and posting to it with a different account.

I was never downvoted on Reddit as hastily as I am on Lemmy.

Note that, unlike reddit, lemmy shows negative vote values. So it may seem a bit more dramatic compared to reddit.

Sadly, that also hides all your own posts, even from your profile page. Which is invonvenient if you also want to keep an eye on them.

Agree! that’s what I’ve been doing: Trying to build critical mass for small communities : fediverse

Sorry for the confussion, I did not create any of those communities. I’m just trying to help them grow. I will edit the post to make it clearer.

The two I see on a quick search are empty:

• [email protected]
• [email protected]

You can ask on [email protected]

What I found is a few related to fountain pens:

• [email protected] (moved from [email protected])
• [email protected]
• [email protected]

I’m subscribed to specialized_instances, I think it’s a great idea for a community, although I expect it to be more relevant on the long term.

Thanks!

Then I will include them on my watchlist and will try to post at least from time to time.

As I said in other comments, thanks to all of you who create and moderate communities. For now, I’m just trying to generate content, which I know is the easier part.

Note that I said: “you look a bit more organized than small subs”, and that’s not a very high bar, hehe :P.

More seriously, I thought you were related to reddit’s Imaginary Network, which is huge and with some big power-users.

If that’s not the case, then more props to you!

posting so much content can sometimes be a bit tiring.

Agree. What I’m doing (in case it helps) is, instead of going for quantity, go for quality and try to focus the efforts on a few communities that interest me. That way I am posting about things I really like in just a few places and it doesn’t become a chore.

I’m trying to get other people on my community to do it too but it’s not that easy.

Indeed, it’s HARD. This is one of the reasons I haven’t created a community yet, it seems too much effort-VS-results-ratio. I know I’m taking the easy path because I’m not so invested in any specific community. So thanks to all of you who create and moderate all the communities.

:facepalm: (Fixed)

I need to focus more when typing :)

Some very good answers in this post: I’m aware of kbin, mastodon, and lemmy. Are there any other federated applications out there? : nostupidquestions, some random copy&paste:

Here’s a list of 130: https://the-federation.info/#projects

From What other kinds of servers are on the Fediverse? | Fedi.Tips – An Unofficial Guide to Mastodon and the Fediverse:

As well as Mastodon, there are lots of other server types on the Fediverse, for example:

• BookWyrm – A social reading platform, an alternative to Amazon’s GoodReads

• Friendica – A general social network with no character limits, sort of like Facebook used to be on its older interface

• Funkwhale – Music and podcast storage and sharing

• Kbin – Link aggregation and discussion, sort of like Reddit

• Mobilizon – Event organisation, the Fedi’s alternative to Facebook Events

• OwnCast – Video livestreaming with a chat window at the side, very much in the style of Twitch

• PeerTube – YouTube-style video sharing site which uses P2P technology to allow even small servers to have videos go viral, as the more people view a video the more bandwidth it gets

• PixelFed – Photo sharing site, similar in style to Instagram and Tumblr

• WordPress – Independently hosted WordPress blogs can be turned into Fediverse servers using a special plugin

• WriteFreely – Minimalist blog where focus is on the text, like a calmer version of Medium

…and that’s just some of them! If you’re a techy person, you can see more comprehensive lists of server types at FediDB and delightful fediverse apps.

Posted one on each community, good luck!

Oh, my bad, I have indeed confirmed that all nouns are capitalized in German… what I meant is that I’m not sure if that’s the reason why English also does it (sometimes).

But thanks for the *confirmation! :)

Indeed, you’re doing a great job, thanks for the efforts!

I’ve been seeing Imaginary Network’s posts on my timeline. I thought about including them in the OP, but you look a bit more organized than the usual small subs, so I chose to focus on other parts.

From Beagle Bros - Wikipedia:

Beagle Bros was an American software company that specialized in creating personal computing products. Their primary focus was on the Apple II family of computers. Although they ceased business in 1991, owner Mark Simonsen permitted the Beagle Bros name and logo to be included on the 30th anniversary reboot of I. O. Silver, released on December 12, 2014 by former Beagle programmer Randy Brandt.

I didn’t mean that I expect the same user to be posting all day. If different users send 1 post each, they still should have a lot of time for other things :)

That’s our only advantage over the big sites :)

That may be a good idea. The 3 communities I found relevant to crosspost this are:

• [email protected]
• [email protected]: only 2 votes, no comments.
• [email protected]: this one
