Lemmy is a powerful open-source decentralized link aggregator and social media platform that operates within the Fediverse. With Lemmy, you can easily host your own server while being part of a vast network of federated communities. Users registered on different servers can freely subscribe to communities and engage in discussions across different instances. Unlike centralized platforms, Lemmy empowers users with full control over their data and community interactions, ensuring privacy and a more transparent digital space. Whether you’re a developer, content creator, or social media enthusiast, Lemmy offers a customizable and engaging experience that puts community first.
Lemmy operates on a decentralized architecture with no central authority. This ensures that relationships can be made across compatible systems, creating a network of smaller, independent sites that are part of a global Internet-scale federation.
Lemmy provides powerful moderation tools for both site admins and community moderators. You can lock, remove, and restore posts and comments, appoint new moderators, ban and unban users, and even transfer site ownership, all while maintaining transparency with public moderation logs.
Lemmy supports a wide range of features, including user avatars, live-updating comment threads, voting on posts and comments, and the ability to sticky posts. Additionally, the platform supports multiple themes, integrated image uploads, email notifications, private messaging, and i18n for internationalization.
Written in Rust for optimal performance, Lemmy ensures lightning-fast speed and reliability. The front-end is lightweight, coming in at just ~80kB gzipped, and it supports ARM64, making it highly scalable and suitable for a range of devices and use cases.
Lemmy allows users to choose from a variety of themes, including light, dark, and solarized options. This customization enhances the user experience, letting everyone personalize their viewing environment to their preferences.
Lemmy offers integrated RSS and Atom feeds for All, Subscribed, Inbox, User, and Community categories, allowing users to stay updated with the latest posts. Email notifications keep users informed about important activities within their communities, ensuring they never miss an update.
