About
Lemmy is similar to sites like Reddit, lobste.rs, Raddle, or Hacker News. Behind the scenes, it is very different; It allows anyone to run a server (instance), and all instances are federated, and similar to Mastodon, connected to the same universe. For a link aggregator, this means a user registered on one server can subscribe to forums on any other Lemmy instance, and can have discussions with users registered on any number of instances.
Why's it called Lemmy?
- Lead singer from motorhead.
- The old school video game.
- The furry rodents.
Made with Rust, Actix, Inferno, Typescript and Diesel
