A community dedicated to fediverse news and discussion.

Fediverse is a portmanteau of "federation" and "universe".

Much of the Fediverse, especially the most popular communities, are continuations or clones of existing communities from twitter/reddit/etc., which makes sense given the history of these platforms as alternatives to those sites.

Are there any original communities which exist on the Fediverse with no similar community on the mainstream alternative service?

Is there a !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com elsewhere? I know I didn't copy it

I don't get it. Like, at all.

This community was just above your post in my feed.

It's the first time I'm seeing it and it certainly appears unique to me at the moment.

There are plenty of other communities for terminally online bottoms.

I haven't seen another stick community. There's a stick rating Instagram account, but that's pretty different.
