Did you know? Lemmy instances with *key instances!

In case you've been interested in wading into microblogging and didn't feel like Mastodon was your thing, the Lemmy instance you're on might have a *key instance to check out!

I'm posting to your from Sharkey World, Lemmy World's Sharkey instance. However I was surprised to find that Programming Dev has an Iceshrimp instance over at Bytes. Meanwhile I first learned of Blahaj Zone from their Sharkey instance awhile before they spun up their lemmy instance.

One of the cool features of each of these is that even if you're not into microblogging, they also basically have a blogging feature built in alongside it in the form of a Pages feature. Prefer the long form? Write there and then easily turn around and share it with a microblog post.

Are there any other Lemmy instances out there running *key instances? Mention'em in the comments!

Is this like Tumblr or something?

Here is a discussion on Tumblr equivalents.

I think Misskey and its forks are among the Fediverse services that are not modelled on a specific commercial platform, but have created something completely their own.

The forks differ in details (see comparison), but the user experience is relatively similar.

That is helpful thank you.
