On the Fediverse no, there isn't. The closest thing would be Matrix (as someone mentioned above). But Matrix, while, decentralised, it's not truly part of the fediverse.
So a chat platform is something the fediverse is lacking, but idk how posible it is as federation = less security and less privacy. For example, it wouldn't be able to add end-to-end encryption.
Matrix is decentralised but not part of the fediverse as it doesn't make use of ActivityPub or any other federated protocol. It's isolated in its own protocol.
Quoting the FediPact:
Openness for the sake of openness is meaningless. Two things that are very valued on fedi are consent and freedom of association. The whole point of the fediverse is that instances are free to choose who they talk to. We don't have to federate with the likes of gab, for example. Growth for the sake of growth is the ideology of the cancer cell, chasing a capitalist pipe dream
If anybody wants to share a link to kbin/Lemmy so people join, don't send the official Lemmy or Kbin page (or the official page of any federated platform) nor the link to any given server. Share instead links to the Join the fediverse wiki, fedeverse party, etc that have lists of servers and also have posts explaining anything a person needs to know to start an account on any decentralized platform/server.
@AlexiWolf Dark mode sucks in those situations. Sadly I cannot use my phone/pc without it as I have severe photophobia.
Light mode gives me migraines and I can't properly read things when they're on a white background (especially when the text is red, pink, or green)
But I'll never understand this trend of making fun of Light mode users. Just because I cannot use light mode and need dark mode, it doesn't mean that someone may not be in the opposite situation of not being able to use dark mode and needing light mode.
Kbin magazines, Lemmy communities, Friendica Forums and Guppe and Chirp groups belong to the "federated groups" category
You can post in any group by selecting it when creating a new article and selecting whichever magazine/community/forum/group you want to post in.
you can also post in guppe and chrip groups on microblog by adding the group's handle.
@(group name)@(a.gup.pe or chirp.social)

Let say someone wants. to upload a image of the Canadian flag and needs to add a description. it could be this way:
"An image of the Canadian flag. It contains three vertical stripes, its colours from left-to-right are: red, white, red. The white stripe is twice as long in wide and contains a read maple leaf in its centre"
Three rules:
As it can be seeing in my first example, there's no mention of the sky, the ground, the type of phone, etc. as they're not relevant information. The main objects there a squirrel, tree and person.
Try to give a complete description: Explain in detail the the important visual information.
Add the context of the image when necessary: where does it come from? What relation it has to the context it was in? Often context isn't necessary. Only add it when it's important to understand the image you're describing.
-Transcribe all text.
-Explain differences in font, size, style, and case.
The alt text it's not visible (I particularly would prefer if it were), but I've had no problem reading alt text with my TTS app, so, don't worry, it's there.
P.S: Totally agree about the image preview
There's alt text there. my phone's TTS app is reading it no problem. But I'm having problems with in on browser i don't know why
Please add text description to your images/screenshots
There's Vanilla ice cream, and also "vanilla" ice cream
Burger and sandwich places should offer cooked vegetable options to add to the burger/sandwich for people who cannot eat or simply don't like raw vegetables
