Apologies in advance, if this post does not meet the formatting requirements of this community and/or if the number of communities is too excessive or too redundant of other existing communities. The first 5 communities on the table were created recently. All the communities on the table above have content. Every hour, new content is added automatically by a bot depending on time frame and the source’s availability. All these communities are places that welcome additional content and discussion from anyone from any instance (that aren't blocked). From [this Tor Project forum post](https://forum.torproject.org/t/reddit-onion-service-launch/5305), I recently learned that Reddit operates their own onion service. In response, I decided to do the same. This is the onion link to my Lemmy instance: >`maiion33jgwybulqceh6a4mum2c4xuoh2rovvwvtcys565zlbc7litqd.onion` While you need the Tor Browser for the link above, you can still access my instance at: https://chat.maiion.com If there are any communities/subreddits you want me to add, please comment them here or post it in !communityrequests@chat.maiion.com, and I will see what I can do. Registration is open for anyone interested in viewing and communicating with other Lemmy communities over Tor. Please use a regular email address if you are going to register. Email addresses ending in .onion are not supported on this server. Lastly, this is something noteworthy from the official Lemmy documentation. >*Note that federation is not currently supported over the Tor network. An existing Lemmy instance is required. This procedure will proxy Lemmy though Tor, but federation tasks are still handled by HTTPS on the open internet.* > >*Tor ("The Onion Router") is software designed to circumvent censorship and prevent bad actors from monitoring your activity on the internet by encrypting and distributing network traffic through a decentralized pool of relay servers run by volunteers all over the world.* > >*A Tor hidden service is only accessible through the Tor network using the .onion top-level domain with the official Tor Browser, or any client capable of communicating over a SOCKS5 proxy. Hosting a service on the Tor network is a good way to promote digital privacy and internet freedom.* > >[Source](https://join-lemmy.org/docs/administration/tor_hidden_service.html)

cross-posted from: https://chat.maiion.com/post/3401 > >*Reddit's week appears to have gone from bad to worse, as AlphV (aka BlackCat) has claimed that operators broke into Reddit's servers on February 5, 2023, and took 80 GB of zipped data. . Furthermore, Reddit has been contacted by BlackCat, once on April 13 and again on June 16, with no response and no attempt to find out what was taken. Following recent fallout from the subreddit blackouts, and the controversial comments from CEO Steve Huffman, Reddit has been having a tough time in the eyes of its users who have been reportedly leaving the platform and setting up alternatives on the fediverse (such as Lemmy or kbin), used by the Twitter alternative Mastodon.* > > https://www.neowin.net/news/reddit-claimed-to-have-been-hacked-by-blackcat-and-it-has-threatened-to-leak-the-data/ > > https://www.databreaches.net/blackcat-claims-they-hacked-reddit-and-will-leak-the-data/

>*Rest of World turned to W3Techs, a web-scanning firm based in Austria, to count all of the publicly accessible web addresses on the internet to get hard numbers on the discrepancy. Our data shows that a little more than half the sites on the web use English as their primary language. That’s a lot more than one might expect, given that native English speakers only make up just under 5% of the global population. Meanwhile, Chinese and Hindi are the second and third most-spoken languages in the world, but the same scan found they account for just 1.4% and 0.07% of domains, respectively.* Source: [What languages dominate the internet?](https://restofworld.org/2023/internet-most-used-languages/)

Possible to recreate reddit subreddits without being a mod?
  • maiion maiion Now 100%

    I've recreated around 30 subreddits into communities with different icons and banners on my instance. Most of those communities remain empty, but I welcome anyone wanting to post content. You can check out some of the communities I created here. I don't know if some topics are of your interest.

    To respect the rules of the lemmy.world instance and community, I want to disclose that my server is nowhere near as powerful as the specifications of the lemmy.world server indicated in this post. Nevertheless, I started my own instance because I wanted to do my part and support the decentralized nature of federated social networks. I also believe we do not truly know what will happen after July 1, and whether or not the more populated lemmy instances such as this one will get overloaded.

    Both @Otome-chan and @Falmarri are correct. If you are interested in reading more, there is further discussion on that topic here: How do identical communities work on Lemmy?
