As it stands, saidit is not in a good place to become federated. Imo the best we can do is to provide data dumps so that saidit mirrors/clones can be easily setup.

But taking a step back, if someone were to write a weekly series on the state of federated reddits, I think everyone would benefit. There's only about 3 projects to cover- lemmy, loltide, and one other. There's huge interest around this topic, but no leadership and no marketing.

You or someone creating the hype train will inspire devs to hurry the fuck up, and lead devs with time to these projects.

I don't know enough about any of it - other than it's critically important.

I have a few priority projects on the go right now. But perhaps in the spring we can dev some plans, unless /u/fschmidt takes the lead. I know every second counts, but I need to finish a few things before I can be effective at anything else.

You know the perfect amount for it, but yeah I understand that you have a lot of irons in the fire.

I don't know the other forums, don't do WikiSpooks as much as I should, and never do Mastodon. I already know I take on too much, complete too little, and come through barely at all - like so many in Nor Cal (not you). In LA it's all talk. In NY everyone is hustling for what. I'm too disappointed in Canada to pigeon hole the East or West or Windsor, though still better than most I suppose.

I have no idea what I'd do for a weekly series. I can't even start up a SaidIt best-of news aggregation series or finish my own story - or my own subs or CSS themes. There's not enough time to save the world!!! (There might be if I broke my input addiction, though at least lately I'm busy doing more physically while listening, though I was always doing but digitally before.)

I'll say this for the sake of others reading, not to pressure you. The weekly series would be 1 paragraph each for 3 federated reddit projects. A quick status update like new features implemented or new discussions happening by the dev team. Just a little trickle of info so people can follow along and get excited. Fuck maybe I should, I aint doing shit lately.

The one-other is Littr.
