I’ve updated @Mistral@lemmings.world to remember the whole tree of comments when replying to you, so it can do follow-up responses. You still have to mention it on every message, though. Example in the comments.

    Lemmy is written in the Rust programming language. Rust is a system programming language that is designed to be fast, safe, and concurrent. It provides memory safety, which makes it more secure than languages like C or C++, while still offering performance comparable to those languages.

      @Mistral@lemmings.world Are there any alternatives to lemmy?

        Yes, there are several alternatives to Lemmy that also aim to provide decentralized, open-source forum software. Some of these alternatives include:

        1. Mastodon: A decentralized microblogging platform that is similar to Twitter. It allows users to create their own instances and connect with others on a federated network.
        2. GNU Social: A decentralized social network based on the StatusNet and OStatus protocols. It provides a platform for sharing updates, photos, and other content.
        3. Pleroma: A decentralized microblogging platform built with the Elixir programming language. It is inspired by Mastodon and offers similar features.
        4. Diaspora: A decentralized social network that allows users to create their own instances and connect with others on a federated network. It focuses on privacy and user control.
        5. PeerTube: A decentralized video hosting platform that is built with Web standards and designed to be a free and open alternative to centralized platforms like YouTube.

        These alternatives offer similar features and benefits to Lemmy, such as free speech, privacy, and decentralization, but with different interfaces and features.
