@Jasper Bienvenido The only talk about a Discord "alternative" in the Fediverse comes from people who want 1:1 clones of all kinds of commercial stuff with an absolutely identical UX, but free and open-source and decentralised with ActivityPub.

Otherwise, for just simply chatting, including multi-user chatrooms, there are Matrix (iOS/Android: Element) and XMPP (iOS: Monal IM, Android: Conversations). They are not part of the Fediverse, but they are free, open-source and decentralised. And they are alternatives to iMessage, Telegram and WhatsApp as well.

For discussion groups/forums, and very much in the Fediverse as in connected Mastodon, there are
  • Lemmy (Reddit clone)
  • Mbin (like Reddit, but better)
  • PieFed (like Reddit, but better)
  • Friendica (like Facebook, but better and more powerful)
  • Hubzilla (like Facebook, but much better and much, much more powerful)
  • (streams) (like Facebook, but much better and more powerful)
  • Forte (like Facebook, but much better and more powerful)

Pixelfed: "groups" are coming and they will be compatible with Lemmy (who knows if they will also be compatible with Friendica)

@fediverse

Groups are not new to Pixelfed, we have webUI support but the feature wasn't polished enough for use, until now ✨

:pixelfed: Groups will be compatible with #Lemmy, #Mbin, #Smithereen and other projects, and will resemble Facebook Groups in our official app!

Stay tuned, we'll be shipping the updated Groups support in the app and webUI this weekend 🚀

Pixelfed: arrivano i "gruppi" e saranno compatibili con Lemmy (chissà se lo saranno anche con Friendica)

@fediverso

I gruppi non sono una novità per Pixelfed, abbiamo il supporto webUI ma la funzionalità non era abbastanza perfezionata per l'uso, fino ad ora✨

:pixelfed:I gruppi saranno compatibili con #Lemmy, #Mbin, #Smithereen e altri progetti e assomiglieranno ai gruppi di Facebook nella nostra app ufficiale!

Restate sintonizzati, invieremo il supporto aggiornato per i gruppi nell'app e nell'interfaccia utente Web questo fine settimana🚀

@solimanhindy Bon... Après une dizaine de jours avec #mbin , je dois dire que je ne suis pas très convaincu. L'idée est intéressante, mais je n'ai pas trouvé de contenu particulièrement intéressant (pour moi). Du coup, je viens de m'apercevoir que je n'avais même pas regardé depuis quelques jours...

Ça a donné quoi de ton côté ? (à part l'install excessivement complexe)

Alright, so a mbin instance has taken two of my posts (that I wrote here on my profile) and included them in a topic as if I had posted them there myself. It doesn't look like a share or a repost, it looks like I went there and I wrote it there. (see screenshot)
Except that I had no idea it had happened, I couldn't even tell which instance had done it before someone found it for me.
Apparently, the posts were extracted from a hashtag feed.

I figured out because I started to get tons of replies (not always very nice) from accounts that looked like Reddit accounts. You know "TerribleYusRname96" style with no profile pictures. Most being Lemmy accounts.

Does anyone know about that? And especially how to prevent it from happening, because I find the process quite misleading and disingenuous. At least, show that it's a post from somewhere else and notify the author.

#Piefed (#Reddit alternative), and #Lemmy and #MBIN alternative too, has added a nice new feature called "Feeds" which is like multi-reddit. You can create your own public feeds by combining a number of communities together. People on any other Piefed instance can subscribe to your feed.

If you're interested in using Piefed as a Reddit alternative, or checking out this feature, I run a public instance, feddit.online. You can see all Piefed server choices at join.piefed.social/try/
