Earlier today a comrade got a pretty good tankie instance for Mastodon on this post of theirs. So I was thinking, due such things exist for other federated platforms such as Pixelfed and Peertube? And if so, which are the best for our purposes?

I know little of the back end of Hexbear, and as such can not make much comment as to why we are not federated with it. However, if I had to guess, is say it is something to due with some of the customers they have dinner with it. Regarding Mastodon, while the code for interaction between platforms is compatible, and in fact we are technically federated with Mastodon instances, the participants with his the platforms work differ. However, if you search for a lemmygrad user from a Mastodon instances you can read all of their posts and comments.
The reason we’re not federated with Hexbear is that their code has diverged enough from the original Lemmy code that the two are no longer compatible. Work is now being done to take the latest versions of Lemmy and rewrite all the added features on top of that, without diverging too much, so that a new version of Hexbear can be made that will federate nicely with Lemmy
Thank you!
