AFAIK there isn't any specific language stuff being done here. As people find and subscribe to communities on different languages they'll appear on all.
i’m boring and i shitpost and tech-post all over the place. big fan of Ea-nāṣir.

There are instances that bump up the max length. The word you're generally looking for is "glitch" (instances will say they're running "the glitch fork" or "glitch edition" or will have version numbers ending in +glitch, which has a few features on top of regular Mastodon), although some regular Mastodon instances may also increase the char count the hard way.
Alternatively, Firefish/Misskey by default has ~3000 characters but it's a completely different experience altogether (although it still federates with Mastodon (like kbin and Lemmy)). I'm not exactly sure on how Akkoma instances are usually set up but that's worth taking a peek as well.
Of course this doesn't address the politics stuff but that's more on you to curate your own experience.
Learn about reverse proxies such as Nginx or Caddy. The various selfhosted communities on Lemmy should be able to help with your questions. That'll fix the port conflict problem. (Though I recommend wiping your Lemmy DB and starting from scratch when changing domains. Federation is really finicky in situations like that)
My second recommendation would be to use blocklists to deny the crap parts as opposed to allowlisting as that will impact your view of the threadiverse. (Which by itself isn't a bad thing, but is the wrong tool for the job in most cases I've seen people asking about it)
if ur on android or don't want to install too many extensions you can also use uBlock Origin with a custom filterlist such as the builtin "AdGuard URL Tracking Protection" or DandelionSprout's Legitimate URL Shortener (which is included in my usable web guide wink wink nudge nudge)
you don't need both lists enabled as the dandelionsprout one has all the rules from the adguard one inside it
it's the complete opposite for me. i just shit out some words and at some point it's good enough and i hit save and i never look at it ever again
granted i never write anything worth reading so that may be why
there's a 25 char limit or something like that. if you exceed that it won't work.
they joined mastodon
posts having different IDs per instance did trip me up as well but i found out this is a surprisingly common practice on nearly all fedi software
they linked to post 886994 on startrek.website however the client you're using loaded up post 886994 on lemmy.blahaj.zone
when resolved correctly, OP's post ends up being post 1845218 on lemmy.blahaj.zone.
i've been filtering hexbear's communities from my all feed with uBO[1] because of the tankie vibes, but outside their own communities hexbear people seem to behave themselves reasonably well. considering lemmygrad is defederated i can expect them being defederated as well just because of the politics, but they don't seem too brigade-y to the communities here.
to be fair i've been blocking all the politics and politic-adjacent communities left right and center so perhaps i'm just not seeing the bad parts of hexbear, but shitposting wise they seem alright.
the only real gripe i have with hexbear is that lemmy's handling of emoji in general suck and man do they like their emojis. but that's a software issue more than anything

i manually put it myself. the instance here is considerably closer to upstream lemmy than what hexbear seems to be running
there were some talk of modifications here but one of the admins got into an accident and is afaik still recovering and dealing with more important stuff (moving to cheaper hosting for one)
honestly it's a miracle this instance is as stable as it is given all the circumstances
image uploads on blahaj were a bit buggy lately. i think they're working fine right now so you may want to try again.
business idea: smokable ink
let me know when you find it and i might let you :3
Blocked since install
5,983 (5%)
Fresh install of just 2 days. 3rd party frames, JS, and remote fonts disabled by default, alongside a fairly strict anti-annoyances config (https://blahaj.zone/@ShittyKopper/pages/usable-web)
and if it were to be de-federated, then lemmy.world would have been ages before that.
.world gets the "untouchably large instance" pass that mastodon.social and it's ilk always gets, especially amplified by the community oriented structure of Lemmy.
This is in no way a dig to the admins here btw. Defederating from .world would cut off a LOT of otherwise alright communities. That said with their recent statement of "we're not big compared to Mastodon so we're not doing anything bad by keeping registrations open!! We want more 🚀 users 🚀" seemed so disingenuous that I myself am considering just outright filtering them out on my own end. And if the Beehaw defederation didn't bring any sense into them then Blahaj defederating won't do much either.
Honestly we're lucky the admin doesn't seem to be namesearching and replyguying like some others (ahem universeodon ahem)
On my own end I've elected to hide all comments from kbin.social users (via uBlock, see https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/1633853) and I've been avoiding subscribing to communities hosted there. Not because any bigotry or whatever (I try my best to report anything I find suspicious) but just because any time I've seen comments with "meh vibes" (even if it isn't anywhere near bigotry) it seems to come from there (or lemmy.world, which I've also been trying my best to limit my own participation to, but I haven't yet filtered them out completely)
Granted that's probably because of it's flagship status. kbin is way more centralized than Lemmy ended up being. (Even with .world's frankly unmanageable size)
I am not explicitly advocating for defederation (if it isn't causing a large burden behind the scenes, that is), but if you did defederate I personally wouldn't complain :p
there's like a 25 character limit (i think. it's 20 by default but it's changeable per instance by the admins) so if your name is short enough you can put it there.
