Replacements
Listings that take over the same core job as Frontpage.
Lemmy
Federated link aggregator and discussion platform.
Lemmy is an open-source federated link aggregator on a Rust server you can self-host, using fediverse accounts instead of AT Protocol identities such as Bluesky handles.
PieFed
A self-hosted federated forum and link aggregator that works with Lemmy and the wider fediverse.
PieFed is a self-hostable, Lemmy-compatible forum and link aggregator with a flagship instance, federating over the fediverse rather than using Bluesky handles.
Mbin
A self-hosted federated content aggregator with voting, discussion threads and microblogging for the fediverse.
Mbin is a self-hosted federated aggregator combining link sharing, voting and microblogging over ActivityPub, so you would run a server rather than use AT Protocol identities.
