mbin.linuxnation.social: Our new M instance

2026-07-14 fediverse mbin linuxnation community self-hosting

A new service is now available: Mbin

At mbin.linuxnation.social we provide a new, independent home for the Linux, FOSS, and privacy community. You can share links, discuss, and microblog there.

What is Mbin?

Mbin is a content aggregator and microblogging tool for the Fediverse. The concept is similar to Reddit, but completely decentralized. You can interact with users on Lemmy, Mastodon, and other Mbin servers from our instance.

Key Features:

Discussions & Links: Share threads and exchange ideas.
Microblogging: Send short messages to the network.
Full Federation: Connection to Lemmy, Mastodon, and more.
Themed Magazines: Structured areas for your favorite topics.
Privacy First: No ads, no tracking, and fully GDPR compliant.
Independent: 100% self-hosted on our own server infrastructure.

Magazines:

In addition to many federated magazines, we have already created a few ourselves:

!linux and !linux_de - Everything about Linux
!foss and !foss_de - Free and Open Source Software
!privacy and !privacy_de - Data protection and privacy

Custom magazines can be created by all registered users. Registration is open.

Software: Mbin
