You could create a community for yourself & post your stuff there. I don't think there are any rules against this
That's what I've been doing for a year or so...
Is it not working well? What is it lacking?
What is it lacking?
Plush carpet and air conditioning. No, it's working fine — fun for me, and a handful of others don't seem to mind.
Mastodon or Pixelfed come to mind.
i'm sorry but i am not an enjoyer of microblogging!! but thanks, pixelfed could work
You want to join an mbin or piefed instance, they allow both microblogging and posting to lemmy communities.
mbin!! thank you, is there an android client for it??
oh nevermind, i'm looking at their website and yea they have an app for android and linux called "interstellar", ok!! i'll just choose a server then
Mastodon? Substack? Bluesky?
Definitely sounds more like a pixelfed use case.
But, any instance can work, just communicate with the admins and make sure it's cool, then create a community and set it to mod only posting. My cousin used to do that, and it worked fine.
There's a couple of communities set up like that as well.
Generally, you won't look like you're spamming posts, unless you're spamming posts. Like, set yourself a time limit between posts, and spread them out.
or do single posts via topic on your personal C/, and include related links/media as comments the way forums did stickied posts for things. Helps keep from reposting stuff too, since you can scroll a thread easier than a C/, on most apps.
thank you, i will try pixelfed, i am excited to be in the fediverse way more
Go ahead and throw your pixelfed username out here once you've made it. I assume you do furry art at least a bit based off your profile which isn't a super uncommon niche here, probably a few lurkers who'd love to follow
Features wanted:
- Post to profile (media & text)
- Fediverse connected
Apps with those features:
- Microblogging
- Alternative to X/Twitter
- Open source
- Blog / Newsletter
- Alternative to substack.
- Open Source
Maybe pixelfed? Never used it but I think it’s more or less designed for this purpose, and it’s on the fediverse.
This sounds like an elaborate way of saying you want to blog.
Or, as the kids call it these days, "to post on my Substack". The two things being identical except that the latter sounds cooler and allows them to indulge their corporate Stockholm syndrome.
Substack is Geocities for the Tumblr generation.
you probably google for yahoo on bing amirite
Ha, good analogy.
lemmy-like fediverse forum
I believe you are looking for the term "threadiverse". Unfortunatly, Idk the answer to your question.
I really want something like myspace for the fediverse, profiles that are customizable and can display videos, photos, 3d models, etc. would be peak. The fediverse needs more awareness and funding tho. So many non federsted platforms made to be turned to shit and sold to the highest bidder keep popping up. Like I keep getting ads for lore, no ones heard of the fediverse or lemmy, the platform the commenters are looking for already exists, they dont need to goto another mess that exists to sell their data and forcefeed them ads.
Why not just have a website?
Some benefits of federation for a system like this is possibility of integrated-into-one-system project comments, friends/subscriptions and user/project search/discovery (also by tags).
Discoverability, everyones following a common theme basically what myspace used to be, a personal site that reflects you that is easily searchable among other sites doing the same things for other ppl, a website can be anything, you know what a myspace page is, old internet was like this forsure, id stumble upon a lot of personal sites that were unique, not really anymore. Like the whole geocities, everyone has a wix/webs site era.
And even this it was pretty random, I just want a way to browse only personal sites and share mine, see different categories like art, sports, etc. What I thought the internet would be, not just corporations tryna sell me something.
mbin! fedia.io and kbin.earth are both instances.
You could also do what people did in the early days of reddit, and make your own "vanity" community.
