# lemmy.ml ## About Lemmy started as a simple project to build a Reddit-style site that runs on multiple independent servers instead of one central company. Users post links and comments that flow between instances through ActivityPub so communities stay connected without handing control to a single owner. The software is fully open source which lets anyone spin up their own server and set their own rules. Moderation happens at the instance level so each community decides what content stays or goes. Development is driven by a small group of contributors who release updates regularly on GitHub. The platform supports threaded conversations, voting, and community creation just like traditional forums but without ads or data harvesting. Because it is federated, users on one server can interact with posts from another without creating separate accounts. This setup appeals to people who want more control over their online discussions and dislike the direction of mainstream social sites. Instance operators can choose different themes, languages, and policies to match their audience. The project avoids venture funding and stays independent so decisions stay with the people running the code. Growth has come mostly through word of mouth in tech and privacy circles. Several larger instances now host tens of thousands of users and mirror popular communities from other networks. The interf
