Hello there,

here is my contribution to the Fediverse: a guide to install a Friendica instance using Docker and Caddy.

That should help new administrators and beginners to go online easily.

Friendica deserves a try, this instance variant is neither mastodon nor pleroma, yet after testing many including Misskey forks I tend to lean on Friendica's side for my instance... will you ?

Like this, it is really good for selfhosting or single user instance on a cheap VPS. And it may scale to many users.

The images seem to load quicker now on the local feed! Though my likes do not seem to show under posts anymore.

Why not start your own instance today!

It says:

Simple marketplace plugin for friendica with bitcoin wallet support

Looks like it hasn't been worked on in years though.

So that people can get onboarded much more easily to perform the same functions they get out of Facebook.

I am looking to migrate from mastodon to friendica because my mastodon server is shutting down and the idea of friendicas all in one platform approach fits my needs/wants out of my use case. Which is basically me wanting a personal account for my real identity, its not something im looking to use a lot just a way I can see the rest of the fediverse in a easy way that is separate from my internet identity.

Hello Korendian! I see that you’re also interested in this great platform, I hope you don’t mind me appointing you as a moderator, as I would love to have you here💙💛

I believe we should consolidate under this community as it was made earlier and has the most content.

Let’s grow the world’s interest in the friendly open-source alternative to Facebook.

I see that not everybody uses their actual names in their profiles as they’re testing out the waters in this new territory. The platform will take some relearning from Facebook to get used to.

It is notable that Friendica does support the ability to have multiple profiles on each account.

But the one thing that is funny to me is that anonymous users from Lemmy are able to communicate with Friendica users with real names. Imagine a well known expert on physics arguing with some armchair random from Lemmy hehe.
