the alternative is not perfect either so why not just stay

It does work for a lot of people. Seeing they need to change and adapt if they do change, and it seemingly seems to be as bad as what they're using now, why change and face headaches and hassle.

Can only speak for myself, but anything the instance admin deems related. Or voted / suggested by their members.

sure, I'll try to keep an eye out for problems.

hmm, is it possible that maybe both of those mbin instances blocks imgur? I have accounts on both but I'm using fedia as my main

if this keeps up I might just abandon mbin and go with Lemmy while waiting for piefed lol...

how to do that?

Instances admins would start to advocate to defederate from them just like with Meta's Threads IMO.

And for another, at any time users can view Categories of Communities, such as all things Fediverse, News & Politics, or Gaming, and now users can even create our own customized Feeds

I like the sound of this. Pardon the comparison, but it's like multisubreddit. That's one of the big things from reddit I miss. Making my own categorised feed.

I use Private Internet Access (PIA) and that has port forwarding. I read something about it on reddit but forgot about it, so idk of there's anything bad it controversial surrounding PIA.

I appreciate knowing both. I have a Lemmy instance account too.

@meldrik@lemmy.wtf thank you for your answer.

Thanks for shedding light on that feature on fedia. Yeah, I kind of did not find a need to do this. The question just crossed my mind yesterday and somehow I thought I need to know.

Cant read the article due to paywall

Woah, when did The Verge have a paywall?

Never heard of this one before. too bad it doesn't have a mobile version as well.
