Lemmy
Posts to a community on any Lemmy instance.
Lemmy is federated: you connect to your own instance and post into one community per connection.
Connecting
Accounts → Connect → Lemmy, enter your instance address, username, password, and the community: technology, or [email protected] for a community on another instance. Accounts with two-factor authentication enabled cannot connect today.
What you can publish
| Limit | Value |
|---|---|
| Body | 10,000 characters |
| Title | 200 characters, from the post title or the first line of the body |
| Link | One URL, used as the post's link |
| Image | One, used as the post's link |
A Lemmy post is a title plus an optional body and one optional link; an attached image becomes that link. There is no native media upload, no tags, and no thread chains.
Analytics
Per post: upvotes and comments. Recent posts are included in analytics; account-level Lemmy reports a combined post-and-comment count rather than followers. Competitor tracking works: track any public Lemmy user your instance can see.
Deleting
Deleting the post in FoPost deletes it on the instance.
