  • When you view the global post listing from all communities, it shouldnt display posts in languages that you dont speak. Similarly it shouldnt be possible to make a post in Danish or Polish in a German community. With Lemmy 1.0 there will be automatic language detection available so you wont have to specify it manually for each comment. And translations could be implemented using Libretranslate (selfhosted).












  • This is not possible with the way Lemmy is implemented, because each post belongs to exactly one community. This is not something we can realistically change. We are considering to show comments from different posts with the same url together, but that is controversial.

    In any case NodeBB, Lemmy and Piefed are different platforms with different implementations and different users. So it makes sense that some features are implemented differently, or only available in a subset of platforms.









  • With 4500 posts per minute you will probably get a lot of other scaling issues too, like with your database or the processing of incoming and outgoing activities. In any case its a good way to learn how Activitypub works. Is the code open source? Dont see it on your codeberg.

    Using the plugin system you basically just need a way to get notified about each new post and comment, right? I expect that will be one of the major use cases for plugins. We will likely provide various official plugins, eg push notifications for Android and iOS. The same thing should also work for you.Version 1.0 will let you subscribe to communities to get notifications for all new posts and comments (code).
