For those seeking out a federated and open alternative to Tumblr, Wafrn is looking extremely promising. It can speak both ActivityPub and AT Protocol, offers a ton of interesting features and customization, and focuses on making an incredibly fun experience.
Are we able to subscribe using Lemmy/piefed/ect to creators?
You can follow them from MBin, at it supports following users. I am pretty sure you can’t from the other two, as they only support groups
Lemmy doesn’t have a concept of a post that isn’t attached to a community. It’s probably possible to post to Lemmy from Wafrn by tagging a community as it is with Mastodon.
You can follow Wafrn users from Mastodon, Misskey, Pleroma, etc…
I hope one day the Lemmy developers arrive at the idea that a person could be a community, somewhat like the way Mastodon treats communities as users. It’s a confusing generalisation, but it works.
Reddit has that, and the ability to follow a user and get notifications when they post. I’m not sure it’s widely used there, but I think it would be a decent feature to add to Lemmy.
Remote profiles appear to show up, it might be possible to also remotely pull in posts. I didn’t see Subscribe functionality in Lemmy, but maybe PieFed or MBin support that.
I was wondering, cause it mentioned bluesky. I was wondering if it worked on ap or at.
First time I may be seeing both in one stack.
It’s activitypub, but can be configured to also use AT as well.
That’s awesome. I was hoping both would be supported at some point.
Yeah, Wafrn uses both protocols, and basically runs its own PDS and AppView.
