Lemmy Description
Lemmy is an independent social link aggregation platform and discussion forum. It is free and open and not controlled by a company. This means there is no tracking, advertising or secret algorithms. Content is organized by communities, making it easy to subscribe to the topics you are interested in and ignore other topics. Voting is used in order to promote the most interesting content.
Lemmy will always be free and open source software. It uses the strong copyleft AGPL License.
This is a fast framework and tool made using Rust, Actix Diesel, Inferno Typescript and Typescript.
Each server can establish its own moderation policies to foster a healthy, open environment where everyone can feel comfortable.
Lemmy allows you to host your own server. All servers are federated, connected (think email), in the same universe called the Fediverse.
