I'm watching over Freenet. It may solve this server resources problem hopefully.
Let me show you some examples (you should be logged in to fosstodon, or it will redirect you to lemmy again):
- Programming Humor community: https://fosstodon.org/@programmer_humor@programming.dev
- ManeraKai account: https://fosstodon.org/@ManeraKai@programming.dev
- This current post: https://fosstodon.org/@ManeraKai@programming.dev/110699662543179133

Support is getting better over time.
Some redirections aren't supported (bc Mastodon isn't fully compatible with Lemmy), and sometimes it doesn't work bc of a server problem (your instance doesn't federate with that link's instance). However, FediRedirect is still in beta, open any issue here: https://github.com/ManeraKai/fediredirect.
Also, why does it require my login credentials.
For lemmy:
(Username and Password) or (jwt) are required for resolving /post and /comment. If Username and Password didn't work, go to your instance's cookies and copy your jwt.
Same for mastodon, but it only has the read:search permission (scopes aren't implemented in Lemmy yet)
- Say a friend sent you a lemmy.world link, you want to reply to it but you only have a programming.dev account, so you redirect the link to programming.dev that has your account.
- Say a friend sent you a lemmy link, but you only have an account in kbin, so you redirect to kbin (kbin is not implemented yet).
- You want to see a post in your own instance's UI and Theme.
- You want to use Pleroma's UI not Mastodon's UI and vise versa.
Yes, also pleroma and misskey.
Thanks :'D
Opposite to Instagram or Facebook, on Lemmy or Mastodon you can create an anonymous account. Yes it will be logged (normal public internet), but you won't be treacable. The UI doesn't have any tracking scripts, and many instances don't require an email even to sign up. Use the Tor browser to spoof your IP.
