I've just read about ClubsAll in the Fediverse Report and did some digging. It seems to be another Threadiverse service federating with Lemmy and others.

While I always welcome new platforms into the fediverse, there are some weird things with this one.

• It isn't open source, but the developer mentioned on ProductHunt that they want to open source it in the future.
• You can't run your own ClubsAll instance at the moment
• They want you to join their Discord, but wouldn't it be better to have the conversation around it on ClubsAll itself? I've found a ClubsAll Community on ClubsAll but it only has two posts from 10 months ago without any comments or upvotes.
• Their main search bar is just a Google search
• They want to finance it through paid accounts, awards and donations according to their about page.
• According to their privacy policy they collect interactions with the content, like voting, bookmarking and reporting to improve and personalize the website and to develop new products and services and for marketing and promotional purposes.
• I haven't found content that originated on ClubsAll yet, apart from c/ClubsAll. All I'm seeing is content federated from Lemmy communities.

For me there are some red flags in there, like closed source code, paid accounts and data collection for marketing. But, correct me if I'm wrong.

It’s been an eventful week in the fediverse, with the Swiss government ending their Mastodon pilot, the launch of the Social Web Foundation, Interaction Policies with GoToSocial and more!

I'm having trouble opening the post-comments on image- and link-posts with single-line headlines. The clickable area for the headline is so small that I keep opening the community or the link/image by mistake. Trying to open the post-comments via the comment icon below the link/image often leads to an involuntary downvote because of the even smaller clickable area around the comment icon.

I would suggest to add a swipe action that can be configured to open the post-comments. That way, the layout can stay as is and people with clumsy thumbs like me have an alternative option to open post-comments.

Thanks for an otherwise perfect app. This is literally the only issue I have with it. Cheers!

Welcome back to another update. Some short housekeeping notes: Last Week in Fediverse will now release every Wednesday. Furthermore, I’ve split all news about Bluesky and the ATmosphere into it’s own separate newsletter, Last Week in the ATmosphere. I originally wanted to keep them together, but the newsletters were simply getting too big, so it was time to split them. Lots of news this week with FediForum, a Fediverse Discovery Project, and mozilla.social shutting down, so lets dive in.

1 million new accounts on Bluesky as Brazil bans X, and premium feeds with Sub.club, and much much more.

Niemand weiß wie es mit feddit.de weitergeht. Das Web-Interface ist immernoch kaputt und der Admin unerreichbar, daher ist feddit.org der bessere Ort für die Wortwitzkasse. Lasst uns dort weitermachen.

Moin. Da nachwievor unklar ist,

• wie es mit feddit.de weitergeht
• diese Community momentan unmoderiert ist (einziger Mod ist der nicht erreichbare feddit.de Admin)
• und wir mit feddit.org eine stabile, nachhaltige Alternative haben,

habe ich c/musik auf feddit.org gestartet.

Ich hoffe wir können dort wieder eine lebendige Musik-Community aufbauen.
