lemmony: A better "All" browsing experience for small Lemmy instances - eviltoast

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.management/post/665809

I made this tool to help self-hosters, new admins, or smaller instances have more global and updated content on their instances.

This is the similar to Lemmy Community Seeder but is designed to be run periodically to capture new communities, and include EVERYTHING by default.

    Subscribing to 100 communities you care about will result in a very lively feed of stuff that is interesting to you, while generating a tiny percentage of the federation load this approach does.

    It was a lot of work, but this is what I did (not 100 communities, but enough). I browser all on lemmy.world for days, finding communities I wanted to subscribe to. Then I subscribed to those on my account on my private instance. When I want more communities, I go back to lemmy.world and find more.
