Yes. That or use Google Cache. They almost never show a paywall to the Google bot because that would hurt their page rank.

I use Libreube but I can understand that people would rather use a stock YouTube patch. You can't like or comment on anything that doesn't require a YouTube account for example and I get why that'd be a deal-breaker for some.

Not that I know of. Lemmy is part of the fediverse and you can follow/post to Lemmy communities on Mastodon but AFAIK Lemmy doesn't have a system to follow other users. I think Kbin does.

You can follow any Mastodon account as an RSS feed so that would be two in one.

Me too and I don't think it'll be a threat to Lemmy but on Mastodon, there are a lot of old people who already use Meta platforms themselves.

They will very soon have the largest userbase of any instance. If your instance gets blocked by Meta, your users suddenly have a fraction of the reach because no Meta people can see your posts anymore. That would put a lot of pressure on admins I imagine.

Yes, that's my reason for still having it too. All my friends are on there. And getting them to change platform is almost as hard as getting a woman to like you.

 

I've been on the Mastodon for a few years now and while I knew other services existed on ActivityPub, I rarely used them and I didn't have an account on any of them until now because I thought the content would be the same because they're all federated. You can view a Lemmy post just as well on Mastodon. Now I'm finally trying out Lemmy and I'm discovering how different it is from Mastodon. Totally different content! I thought it was pretty cool to see.

I could be wrong but I think Paper.wf is only intended to write stuff on and you need to promote your blog via other socials. Then, people can follow your blog via things like Lemmy, Mastodon or other Fediverse platforms. Commenting would also be done via other fediverse platforms I imagine.
