Is there maybe someone in the #Fediverse who needs a reasonable beefy (gameing/gamedev) laptop?

- MSI Katana GF66 12UGSZOK
- 64GB RAM (4800MTs)
- RTX 3070 Ti 8GB
- 1TB SSD
- ~1-2 years old

I'm looking to get under 1 months server costs (~1400 EUR) that offers a little breathing room but I'm not sure that reasonable since other offers make me cry

Offers/questions and/or reality check are welcome

*has to be shipped from the NL

If you've been wanting to move your activity history from Strava to FitPub but dreaded dealing with the export files, I made a small browser tool that does the heavy lifting.

Drop in your Strava export files, it decompresses the .fit.gz files, splits everything into correctly-sized ZIP batches, and hands them back for upload. No install, no server, runs entirely in your browser.

Screenshot of the app. Move your activity history from Strava to FitPub. This tool converts your Strava data export into correctly formatted, sized, and counted ZIP batches ready for import.

Something extraordinary just happened: my 5-year-old recognizes the #Fediverse symbol and just asked me about the bag with its logo on it.

Hearing her say “fediverso” (we speak Italian with each other) was… an indescribable feeling. Pure joy and pride.

Special thanks to @samvie who gave me the @berlinfediday bag with the colorful Fediverse symbol as a present a while back 💖

BONJOUR LE #fediverse

❤️🧡💛💚💙💜❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Weekend project that turned into infra I actually run daily: MastoSum.

The stack: RHEL host, 100% rootless Podman. Web on FastAPI, Celery worker/beat/flower, PostgreSQL 16, Valkey. All on userspace networking (pasta), images built & shipped by a self-hosted Forgejo runner. No root daemon, no privileged anything.

What it does: tracks technical hashtags all day and produces one daily briefing, every point linked to the original post + author. It reads only public hashtag timelines, credits every source, and trains on nothing.

And yes, an LLM writes the prose: a local Ministral model from French lab Mistral AI, running on my own hardware. No cloud, nothing leaving the box. Saying that plainly, not burying it. The whole design goal was to point readers *back* at the authors, not replace reading them.

Example output:

Salut le #fediverse. Vous auriez des exemples de structures "relativement importantes" qui aurait définitivement quitté les outils meta (FB, insta, whatsapp) pour leur communication externe et qui en aurait fait un bilan ? J'essaye de convaincre une asso dont je fais partie de le faire, j'ai l'argumentaire de pourquoi meta=caca, mais je sais qu'avec des exemples concrets de structures déjà passées par là, ce sera plus facile. Repouet apprécié.

Hey! 📣

Lovely #fediverse does anybody have a list of all the known user-agents for #activitypub software ?

I have some WAF rules to write to make sure my server can be seen behind a frontend that is only meant to battle AI crawlers and I rather not (knowingly) leave endpoints open to OpenAI

BREAKING NEWS

Le #Fediverse se divise !
Suite à une question anodine, deux forks incompatibles, le #Fediroue et le #Fediporte, sont apparus sur la toile.

Les automobilistes essaient de rassembler tout le monde en leur disant qu'il est possible d'avoir des portes et des roues mais la team #Velotaf rend leur discours inaudible. Le #fediroue prend l'avantage.
Les portes-manteaux, les portes-paroles et les portefeuilles essaient de renforcer le #Fediporte mais les oppositions sont vives.

💔 Is There Still Hope?
I am writing these words from southern Gaza while living through one of the hardest moments of my life. Your donations have become our only lifeline amid hunger, destruction, and the lack of even the most basic necessities.
Today, I went to the hospital because of the severe pain in my leg, and there I received devastating news. The doctors discovered that one of the metal screws fixing my leg has broken, causing very serious complications. The pain has become unbearable, and I can no longer stand properly. The doctors told me that I urgently need surgery to save my leg from amputation.
My injury is not minor. I suffered a fractured femur, extensive damage to tissues and nerves, and there are still shrapnel fragments inside my leg. I also have a metal plate extending from my hip to my left knee, and after one of the screws broke, my condition has become more dangerous than ever.
I had previously postponed the surgery because I could not afford the $800 cost, and because I was struggling to provide for my family’s basic needs during these extremely difficult circumstances. Now, after my condition has worsened and one of the fixation screws has broken, the surgery has become more urgent than ever. The doctors warned me that any further delay could result in losing my leg permanently. 💔🙏
⏳ I have only 5 days left to undergo this surgery. Every day that passes increases the risk of permanent amputation, and I am terrified that it will soon be too late.
I urgently need $800 for the operation. Every contribution, no matter how small, brings me one step closer to saving my leg. 💔
I am facing this pain while also carrying the burden of my brother's imprisonment, my mother's illness, and the responsibility of being the sole provider for my family. I feel helpless and afraid of what the future may hold, but I still hold on to hope in God and in the kindness of compassionate people.
🙏 Please do not leave me alone in this hardship.
Any donation, no matter how small, could help save my leg and support my family. If you are unable to donate, please share this post. It may reach someone who can help.
💔 My life and my family's future are in your hands.

about once a week I hear someone tell me that the fediverse failed and is dead

and every day I find something new on it, some new instance, or some new account or interesting post

take that how you will

#fediverse

Following the @EUCommission Tech Sovereignty and Open Source Strategy (and Mastodon’s direct mention within it!) announced this week…

Our team is proud to have signed and contributed to the drafting of the European Social Stack Open Declaration alongside our peers in the #SocialWeb and #Fediverse: @anewsocial, @eurosky.social, @newsmast, Save Social, and @swf.

We are a movement, and stronger together.

Read the declaration, add your signature, and share: https://european.social/

Aggressive caching for a Mastodon reverse proxy: what to cache, what to never cache, and why content negotiation will eventually betray you

The same URL serves HTML to browsers, JSON to apps, and ActivityPub to remote instances. Here's how I cache Mastodon with nginx without betraying any of them.

https://it-notes.dragas.net/2026/06/05/aggressive_caching_for_a_mastodon_reverse_proxy/

#ITNotes #nginx #Caching #IT #SysAdmin #Mastodon #Fediverse #BSDCafe

@TimothyRoes @hpod16

The (over)use of "mastodon" is understandable. Mastodon played a pioneering role in implementing microblogging use cases with the #ActivityPub protocol and is also the most mature product at this point in that 'business domain'. Establishing itself as a brand.

#Fediverse is not a very descriptive name to people unfamiliar with it and the idea that it provides access to many apps that integrate with on a single social network (ideally) interoperably is foreign. They are used to 'platform thinking'. Fediverse weaves a social fabric that allows you to be "social together with others" online.

The europa.eu website now has a #Mastodon icon in its social channel list, that hides all that.

Perhaps most communicative is the name #ActivityStreams (name of W3C standard vocabulary of social actions to support). Then a person would subscribe to EU's activity streams and receive Posts, Articles, Videos, Events, Policies, News. Every service the EU offers adds to the stream.

Puh... Immer wieder ein spannender Moment, wenn #Debian beim morgendlichen Einschalten die Firmware auf meinen #Thinkpad T14 updatet. Ist immer so wie eine OP am offenen Herzen. Zum Glück ist auch dieses Mal wieder alles gutgegangen.

In diesem Sinne wünsche ich allen #Fedinauten einen schönen Freitag. 😊☕
#GutenMorgen #Linux #Fediverse

BONJOUR LE #fediverse

RE: https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon/116686738841941842

According to the @EUCommission #TechSovereignty package, released today, the #EU is currently reliant on foreign providers for over 80% of its critical digital products, services, and infrastructure. We're thrilled to see the Commission acknowledge that this is an issue, and lay out a strategy to fix it.

We view this announcement as validation of Mastodon’s mission at the highest level; the Commission’s strategy is grounded in European values that Mastodon shares including security, sustainability, and human-centric design.

What’s more, the EU's explicit strategy is to build and deeply invest in #OpenSource offerings across the entire technology stack. The significant nature of this commitment provides institutional validation and will bring significant policy, funding, and competitive advantages to open source projects like #Mastodon.

Fedizens, we dream! ✊

But what do we dream about? How do our dreams relate, where do they overlap? Might we realize them together? Turn our online places into a delightful commons of cross-pollination and cocreation? How can we make progress towards forging a better world together, and sustain that progress? Can we turn our collaborative efforts into much more than the sum of their constituent parts, and move on shared vision into a brighter future together?

Questions, questions.

In my previous blog post on Shared responsible ownership I claimed that a commons can be 🔥 ignited, and become unstoppable as it realizes positive societal impact. Able to withstand the corrosive forces of Hypercapitalism that seek to corrupt it.

Revolutionary evolution is possible! ✊

#Fediverse is the perfect environment to make this happen. We laid the foundations already. We have soil, so now we can blossom. 🌻

Fedizens, let's dream! ✊

BONJOUR LE #fediverse

Idea: Mastodon should allow adding rel=me links to Mastodon profiles to allow an account to verify other accounts.

(Or maybe a specific rel=trust?)

This can be used to create a web of trust.

e.g., For Gaza Verified, we have verified about ~250 accounts so far using video interviews. But that sort of verification doesn’t scale. And if we trust these accounts to be people from Gaza, we should trust them to verify people they know from Gaza. So Gaza Verified and the 200+ verified accounts become a trust root.

If they could then add rel=me links to their profiles to say “I verify this account is by a Palestinian from Gaza” (which is all we do), then we would start creating a decentralised web of trust.

Thoughts, @staff @haubles and #mastodon and #fediverse in general?

Mastodon is the first social network option listed in the talk proposal form :)

I'm pleased to report that we had fourteen folks show up for the #OttawaMeetup, proving that if you say you'll stand in a park in an orange shirt, people will come. No, I will not stand on the picnic table. 🤣

Thank you to all who took time out of their weekend to come out and say hello in meatspace. Even got a group photo of those who were willing.

Uncertain if we are all axe murderers on good behaviour. …or just good folk who care about community. 🖖🏻

Hey everyone,

@casey and @aseelfromgz had the honour of speaking to two families from Gaza today and we’d like to welcome them to Gaza Verified.

They are:

• (@aseel_177)
• Faisal abu salim 🇵🇸 (@FaisalAbuSalim)

Please give them a warm welcome to Mastodon and to the fediverse, follow their accounts, and donate to their fundraisers if you can (and please share this so others can do the same).

Also, remember that you can find all our families who have fundraisers listed at the following page, ordered by those who have received the least in donations over the last week (on a rolling basis):

https://gaza-verified.org/donate/

Thank you for making Mastodon and the fediverse a safe space for our friends in Gaza and for your support.

Le petit plus #fediverse :

• On m'a demandé de prévenir : si vous n'avez pas d'expérience/compétences #django/#python, vous serez surement en bas de la pile.
• C'est une #scop, ça a ses avantages et ses inconvénients, pensez-y bien fort avant de postuler/accepter
• Si vous êtes pris, vous ne pourrez plus dire du mal de vos collègues sur le #fediverse car on y est tous (non mais une bonne partie, enfin surtout moi et d'autres)... Ca peut jouer dans la balance, mais bon, vous aurez de nouveau followers et des supers* collègues !

**: non, ce n'est pas vrai, mais si je ne le dis pas, ils vont me tomber dessus :-p

More than one person has told me that they are slightly suspicious of #mastodon URLs, because most of them use uncommon TLDs like `social`, `engineer`, or `pizza`.

It might be worth explaining TLD basics on the common onboarding sites for Mastodon (like lists of servers, or explainers for what Mastodon is). These are people who don't really know what a TLD even is. #UX #fediverse #askfedi

Here's Mastodon's Executive Director @mellifluousbox and @mike on Mastodon’s first decade, and what's ahead.

"So what I'm most excited right now is [...] we are celebrating our 10 years this year, and basically to think of what would it take for Mastodon, not only to still exist in 10 years [but also to become] a much better version of what Mastodon is right now[.]"

Let's celebrate, Project Gutenberg joined #fediverse 3 years ago!

Thank you for all your support, in particular @gbnewby (he will always be in our hearts), @gluejar , @lhamilton1515 .

We would also like to thank all of our loyal followers for their relentless support and confidence in our work.

The logo of Project Gutenberg, featuring the name in a medieval-style typeface — "Project" in gold and "Gutenberg" in black — against a pale blue background. A detailed engraving of a 15th-century printing press is incorporated into the design, referencing Johannes Gutenberg's invention that revolutionised book production. https://www.gutenberg.org/

Anyone got a favorite fediverse web client? I'm shopping for a web frontend for gotosocial. Trying Phanpy at the moment, which is not terrible, but I'm curious what else is out there that might be worth a look.

(In particular, Phanpy seems to burn a lot more CPU just sitting idle in Firefox than the Mastodon web ui does).

Run your own decentralized social platform on shared hosting or a tiny VPS WITHOUT Redis, PostgreSQL, or complex infrastructure.

What it makes so special to me? It looks awesome, comes with a great admin web interface and does not require a VPS instance where it can also be operated on a cheap shared hosting systems. By the given requirements, it also easily runs on a #RaspberryPI and all kind of systems, including #FreeBSD, #OpenBSD, #Illumos and more!

This all makes it perfect to everyone and even beginners to run their own instance. With relay support (e.g., fedi-relay.gyptazy.com) it even can consume and post content over non-directly connected instances in the #fediworld!

Four overlapping circles showing progression from Becoming Anti-Racist, Fear Zone, Learning Zone, and Growth Zone. Specific details in the zones: Fear Zone: I deny racism is a problem. I avoid hard questions. I strive to be comfortable. I talk to others who look & think like me. Learning Zone: I recognize racism is a present & current problem. I seek out questions that make me uncomfortable. I understand my own privilege in ignoring racism. I educate myself about race & structural racism. I am vulnerable about my own biases & knowledge gaps. I listen to others who look & think differently than me. Growth Zone: I identify how I may unknowingly benefit from Racism. I promote & advocate for policies & leaders that are Anti-Racist. I sit with my discomfort. I speak out when I see Racism in action. I educate my peers how Racism harms our profession. I don't let mistakes deter me from being better. I yield positions of power to those otherwise marginalized. I surround myself with others who think & look differently than me.

Back in 2011, the Motorola Atrix and Lapdock promised to turn your phone into your only PC. I used one at uni for note taking, but under the hood, "Webtop" was just a limited Firefox browser in a Linux container.

I dig into the hardware and discuss why it failed, plus the challenges of trying to root and run alternative Linux environments on it today.

#HolosSocial isn't bringing something new to the #Fediverse, especially not to #ActivityPub. It builds on what exists, without mimicking any platform.
Every social network has been given its fediverse clone. Asking people to hold a separate account on each is taking the problem backwards.
If the fediverse keeps mirroring the GAFAM, it loses. The point was never to rebuild their world, but to offer something else: one identity across every content.
HolosSocial is simply a try. But we can do it.

BONJOUR LE #fediverse

I wonder how big the largest connected component (LCC) of the Fediverse social graph is, where each node is a person and each edge is a follow relationship.

FediIndex shows 18,400+ user accounts. My guess is maybe 10% of them are unreachable through the follow graph.

It'd be interesting to find out!

@v_perjorative Not yet! That would be the most #fediverse reply possible (other than the inevitable reply NOT THAT distro!)

it looks like more and more companies "force' employees to use #AI.

What do you reply if you're against it?

Is that your case:

#mastodon #fediverse #opensource #FOSS #technology

An idea to shame users of corporate social media sites:

Instead of calling them Users, call them Customers.

You know, draw attention to how they are not just passively existing on those sites, but by being on them they are giving money to bad people.

MastoBlaster build 95 is out, and I am getting close to declaring it stable.

Here is exactly how it works now:

• Tap Home from another tab: Switches back to the Home tab.
• Tap Home while already there: Scrolls the current timeline to the newest posts.
• Tap Home again while already at the top: Refreshes the timeline (with a 1.5-second cooldown to prevent accidental spamming).
• Long-press Home: Opens the timeline picker.

• Added a setting to completely disable Apple Intelligence.
• Redesigned the notification view to be larger and make much better use of screen space.
• Fixed the compose window layout for small devices like the iPhone mini.
• Profile and banner images can now be tapped to enlarge.
• Added support to approve or deny follower requests.
• Added per-instance and per-account connection timeouts.
• Added a visible Back button to the settings sheet.
• Updated the filtered notice UI: it now shows "Filtered Post ()" directly in the header and removes the separate "Matched:" line.

BONNE NUIT LE #fediverse
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

This is a major release that merges several different development branches I've been working on, bringing together a lot of moving parts into a single build. A long, sleepless night…

Here is what changed:

• Full Drafts Support: A complete end-to-end draft flow. It includes auto-save, the ability to edit existing drafts, and a smart cancel confirmation that either discards a new draft or restores the original state if you were editing. It supports replies, quotes, polls, and media metadata.

• Trending Posts: Added a new trending timeline type with proper offset pagination support.

• Timeline Position Improvements: Added extra protection to stop SwiftUI from overwriting your saved scroll position when the view disappears or goes to the background. If a saved post can't be found in the cache, the app will now try a direct status fetch before giving up.

• UI & Navigation Fixes: Tapping Content Warnings (CW), "Show Filtered Post", or "Show More" now goes through an inline-action guard, fixing the bug where tapping them would accidentally trigger row navigation into the thread. Filtered posts also get proper bottom padding so the list separator doesn't sit on top of the button.

• Instance Compatibility & Tweaks: Added customizable timeout settings for slower instances (like snac on older hardware). I also fixed the 405 error when setting alt text on GoToSocial, and updated marker sync to strictly align with Mastodon’s documented form shape.

• Testing focus: I've implemented search fixes ensuring queries stay locked to the account you are searching from. If you are on GoToSocial, please test this thoroughly and let me know how it behaves. Since this build is the result of a massive merge, keep an eye out for any regressions.

Do one thing every day. The Fediverse is worth fighting for.

JOURNAL
jai été obligé de rappeler à la modestie aujourd'hui
un des élèves avancé qui se mêle d'humilité des moins avancés j'aime pas ça
j'ai dû lui rappeler que son savoir ne lui permet de dominer personne parceque en réalité il sait pas grand chose et même on rencontre toujours plus fort que soi
j'aime pas ça parceque ça me force à prendre une attitude dominatrice mais il avait besoin de ça
il a vu comment je suis pas gentille avec un boken et que c'est idiot rouler les mecaniques quand on sait meme pas se défendre et que je peux faire mal sans bouger beaucoup
je tiens à une bonne ambiance et surtout que les élèves s'entraident et pas se mesurent dans une compétition stupide
il y en a meilleurs et plus avancés que d'autre mais aucun n'est expert aucun n'a a se reclamer d'aucune supériorité
ils sont tous mes eleves aussi importants pour moi les uns que les autres débutant ou confirmé ils sont mes eleves à égalité
je consacre autant d'attention au uns comme aux autres et j'aimerais qu'ils en fassent autant
dans l'ensemble cest ce qui arrive puis de temps en temps il faut rappeler les règles cest tout et si j'enseigne pas la competition ni la violence le kenjutsu c'est pas une discipline de frime, mais un apprentissage de rigueur de controle de soi et d'humilité

maintenant dodo

Like the previous article on Grassroots fediverse evolution, this is a long blog post, so I provided an article summary to be TL;DR'ed 😊

#SX #SocialCoding #SocialWeb #ActivityPub #fediverse

Alt...

Article summary: - We cocreate our future together, yet our rushed modern society holds us back from contributing where it matters most. - The Paradox of emergence stands in the way of seeing how our two cents of investment contributes to solving wicked problems. - FOSS and fediverse projects must be more holistically considered to anticipate and address likely huge negative outcomes in-the-large. - Fediverse is the ideal diverse environment where people can further their own dreams in concert with others, and follow shared vision. - For fediverse to become the Future of Social networking we must overcome the fragmentation and division caused by specialization. - Hedonic peer production provides the means to do so, based on the SEE model for Sustainable ecosystem evolution (see diagram above). - We must foster our ability to truly listen to others, to be able to fight the root cause of Hypercapitalism at inter-personal relationship level. - Cross-pollination enables knowledge brokering and innovation based on individual needs, assets we can provide, shared values we hold dear. - To give shape to Hedonic peer production on the social web, SX defines “Joyful creation”, a formula and vision for inclusive cocreation. - Sustainable ecosystem evolution aims for the emergence of a commons based value economy where participants exchange services. - Purposeful social networking that induces prosocial behavior is key to the transition from an attention to an online Intention economy.

This year, Sunday will be dedicated entirely to the developer community – with sessions on #ActivityPub and #AT Protocol, and plenty of space for technical and creative collaboration.

Berlin #Fediverse Day 2026 – Celebrate openness. Connect the community. Shape the future together.

When it comes to dreaming and #vision I'd like to thank @elena who dares to #dream, and whom I quoted in my article.

And the many people who work tirelessly to foster #cohesion, increasing the connectedness of our social fabric. Cross-pollinators. In my previous blog post on Grassroots #fediverse I already genuinely thanked whom I called "the pillars grassroots standardization" @evan and @silverpill

This is such important work. In that article I make many points which are unfortunately misunderstood by people as criticism, while it is the opposite. I admire all the fabulous work people are doing and have done over the years to bring #fedi where it is today.

But I argue that to really go next-level, to #ReimagineSocial, and enter the Future of Social networking, we must be able to take more holistic approaches to glue our fragmented online spaces together, and forge a #SocialWeb that is #inclusive to more people, so they can chime in with their 2 cents of #contribution to the whole.

@uriel

Yes! Good example of cross-pollination. Social dynamics in our FOSS movement are particularly fascinating and up for some major reflection on how to elevate #FOSS practices. As the field right now is inherently unsustainable.

Nice serendipity in you saying "standing on the shoulders of giants" as I just tooted to @janriemer about a sociologist that wrote the literal book with that name..

https://social.coop/@smallcircles/116617175577189050

It follows discussion on "uncomfortable questions" about unintended consequences of our actions in-the-large i.e. what emerge at societal scale from individuals who think they are doing the good thing. The outcome might not be good, and FOSS movement might reflect their role on emergence of #BigTech and #AI. Today there is nothing, nothing at all, that withholds Big Tech and AI to say "thank you" and capture the #fediverse as their oyster, and we'll be complicit to bringing both yet even closer to our skin.

We must be able to operate more in unison and coordination.

@janriemer

Your post led me through a tour on the subject matter, and via the footnotes on the Wikipedia page I bumbed into a synopsis of the work of Robert K. Merton that is quite usable for incorporating with Social experience design, especially as it applies to our chaotic fediverse commons.

At the top of the blog post I just published I quoted your post and a text from the synopsis that relates to these "uncomfortable questions" we must nonetheless ask ourselves.

But the interesting part is about how to align Goals with Means, and the division into various groups based on how that is done. I will need more time to ponder these things, and nerd-snipe myself to follow the many branches this veers off on..

Fedizens, we dream! ✊

But what do we dream about? How do our dreams relate, where do they overlap? Might we realize them together? Turn our online places into a delightful commons of cross-pollination and cocreation? How can we make progress towards forging a better world together, and sustain that progress? Can we turn our collaborative efforts into much more than the sum of their constituent parts, and move on shared vision into a brighter future together?

Questions, questions.

In my previous blog post on Shared responsible ownership I claimed that a commons can be 🔥 ignited, and become unstoppable as it realizes positive societal impact. Able to withstand the corrosive forces of Hypercapitalism that seek to corrupt it.

Revolutionary evolution is possible! ✊

#Fediverse is the perfect environment to make this happen. We laid the foundations already. We have soil, so now we can blossom. 🌻

It's the internet, people. It's OUR internet. Just because we decided to trust Google to not be evil doesn't mean that Google decides the future of the internet. We may very well have lost The Web, but we still can make the Internet of People. Decentralised. Unownable ;) Being here on the #Fediverse is part of that.

@wordsmith

Definitely. It's a very consumery mindset. I don't need #fedi to replace RSS. I'm here to talk to interesting folks.

The conventional wisdom of posting on and searching several hashtags that interest you and finding friends that way is still the best advice, IMO.

And, self-own, I guess, but I've already muted 2-3 of the most prolific political Mastodon accounts, because they never interact with anybody, and only post frustrating-but-necessary-and-true takes on the horrible conditions of the day.

I ain't here for that.

And I'm not here for folks who view the #fediverse as a place to promulgate their ideas, and not interact, learn, and grow.

That's why I'm here, and this place has been a huge part of my life for the past four years. 💗

Mastodon has changed the way it previews a linked NeoDB collection:
- before, the middle of the cover image & the title in large text
- now, like a quote post, with the poster's info & first few lines of small text. No title, no cover image.

As perhaps the only person regularly posting NeoDB collections on Mastodon (& someone who has changed the design of NeoDB collection cover images for better preview on Mastodon), I'm not sure I approve! 😅

@terabyterex @cm0002 Yeh, two things I'm starting to really dislike about the #fediverse are epitomised in this post: the need for click-bait to get attention and the disconnect (double in this case) between the original source (a news site) and the appearance of matter in a generic information browser. This is almost as bad as embedded advertising.

Ultimately the #fediverse needs to solve the problem of maintaining context in postings. I'm not sure what the real solution is, but I think #lemmy in particular needs work doing on the #activitypub side of things.

I'm comfortable building and designing projects, but I'm honestly bad at promoting them.
I tried a donation call once for a new Mac, but after two hours I felt uncomfortable asking while Holos and my iOS work weren't mature enough to justify it. I closed the campaign and refunded the donors. Ironically, donations came later, on their own, with kind messages, covering about 10% of the computer budget.

Are there any plans to implement encryption for private messages using a public key attached to the Fediverse account?

I understand that the metadata would not be encrypted, but that would be more than sufficient for many use cases. The decentralised nature of the Fediverse is a major advantage in the fight against censorship.

FediSuite

500 characters can be a brutal limit. You have a thought, you start writing, and suddenly you are two sentences short. So you trim, rephrase, throw out important nuance. Or you cut the post up by hand and post it as a thread, which is annoying and easy to mess up. FediSuite splits your longer texts automatically into clean threads, at paragraph, sentence or word boundaries, with a preview, in the order you actually want to see. You write freely, the tool takes care of the splitting.

FediSuite

The Fediverse tells you very little about your own account. Mastodon shows a follower count, Pixelfed shows likes, PeerTube shows views. How your account is actually developing, which posts moved something, whether you are growing or whether engagement just dropped, you cannot really see anywhere. Until now. That is exactly why I built FediSuite. The dashboard gives you daily engagement, follower growth, your top posts and your real engagement rate. All from your own data, no algorithm in between, no ad network in the background.

@eco-g I realised that in general English people are sticking more on big tech platforms than other Europeans.
I see it in my own English family and friends. They’re all on #Facebook , #Instagram, #Twitter, #TikTok. They use it on a daily base. The only messengers in use are #WhatsApp and Facebook messenger.
I tried to bring them over to use #Threema or #Signal instead. No success at all. Not one single contact moved to one of these. Even not as a 2nd option.
I asked them to try #Mastodon instead of Twitter. #Friendica instead of Facebook. #Pixelfed instead of Instagram. #Loops instead of TikTok. No chance. Even the argument that they don’t need to use all of these platforms as they’re all part of the #Fediverse and users on different platforms can interact with each other didn’t work.

Also they’re all using #Windows. Only one is trying to use #Linux now. Stick on the known things seems to matter more than #privacy.

Announcing FediMeteo – Weather in the Fediverse!

UPDATE: I have created an account for updates and other information on FediMeteo - follow the account @admin to stay updated!

UPDATE: Ireland, Poland, Portugal and Switzerland have just been added

Weather has always influenced our lives: from agriculture to outdoor activities, to extreme events that, thanks to modern technology, can now be predicted with greater reliability. Personally, weather plays a significant role in my daily decisions, which is why I decided to create a service tailored for the Fediverse.

FediMeteo uses Open-Meteo data to publish updates every 6 hours, including current weather conditions, forecasts for the next 12 hours, and predictions for the upcoming days. Each country is served by its own dedicated instance (e.g., it.fedimeteo.com for Italy), managed through snac to ensure simplicity and efficiency in publishing.

You can follow FediMeteo directly in the Fediverse (on Mastodon and compatible platforms), via RSS, or by visiting the dedicated page for your city (e.g., fr.fedimeteo.com/paris).

Currently supported countries include:
Austria, Germany, France, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, – with many more regions coming soon!

FediMeteo is hosted on a FreeBSD-based VPS, with each country isolated in its own jail to ensure security and scalability.

Visit the main site to explore the national instances and start following your local weather updates today:
https://fedimeteo.com

Happy weather monitoring to all! 🌦️

FediMeteo is dedicated to my grandfather, who every evening would give me the weather forecast based on TV, radio, and his personal experience. He would convince me that the weather would be bad, so he had an excuse to accompany me to school instead of me going alone.

#FediMeteo #Announcements #FreeBSD #FediMeteo #WeatherForecasts #Weather #Meteo #snac #Fediverse #Mastodon

Local weather updates for Cyprus are now available directly in the Fediverse.

You can follow dedicated accounts for 24 cities and places across the island, including Nicosia, Limassol, Larnaca, Paphos, Famagusta, Kyrenia, Troodos, Ayia Napa, Protaras and more.

Cyprus is covered in English, keeping forecasts neutral, geographic and consistent with other FediMeteo instances for sensitive or multilingual areas.

If you're a techy person interested in self-hosting Fediverse platforms, you might like to check out the "Delightful Fediverse" list which tries to feature every Fediverse project available:

(It's worth noting the meaning of the emoji next to project names, as the status of different projects varies.)

I have a new #fediverse tinfoil hat conspiracy theory -- these weird bot accounts that keep following me that are VERY INTO some specific thing (I got a Toby Keith one yesterday and something about bible study the day before) are designed for you to block them.

Whoever is making these bots can kinda 'inverse profile' your tastes / preferences by which bots you block.

Here's the #FAF stance on LLM moderation on the #fediverse: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/68757445

tl;dr: We don't use LLMs, nor do we plan to.

Do not believe disinformation. This is what actually happened and what we believe.

Hey everyone,

@casey and @rania40 had the honour of speaking to two families from Gaza today and we’d like to welcome them to Gaza Verified.

They are:

• Osama Al-Shawaf (@osamaayman595)
• Hilal (@Hilalgazayafa)

Please give them a warm welcome to Mastodon and to the fediverse, follow their accounts, and donate to their fundraisers if you can (and please share this so others can do the same).

Also, remember that you can find all our families who have fundraisers listed at the following page, ordered by those who have received the least in donations over the last week (on a rolling basis):

https://gaza-verified.org/donate/

Thank you for making Mastodon and the fediverse a safe space for our friends in Gaza and for your support.

💕

Day after day after day I pop onto my feed and discover a world of joy, kindness, beauty, wisdom and insight. I learn about ant farms, whittling wood, sunsets in the Baltic, bees in Bavaria, film baths in Bath, pottery in Portland, and just loads more.

I get to see all the things that make you smile, and that makes me smile too. I get to see what matters to you folks. And I am reminded that there are so many good people in the world who really do care about this planet and the creatures we share it with.

I am a better person for being here, and that's because the rest of you are here too.

#Thankyou #Fediverse

Applauding @admin for taking a strong, well-argued stand on this.

Can we get more admins onboard?

Alt...

Screenshot of a Mastodon server's server rules: Don’t police others’ use of CWs, alt text, or tags Whilst we have some guidelines around when to use CWs, alt text, and tags, we only have one rule about them: Use CWs for adult or NSFW content. You can politely ask other people to use specific CWs, alt text, or tags that you prefer, as long as you don’t state your preferences as absolute rules or requirements. This is especially important when marginalised people speak about their experiences of marginalisation. For example, if you are not BIPOC, don’t tell BIPOC to hide their experiences of racism behind CWs.

6️⃣ @matdevdug hat ein Loblied auf die fehlende Aufregung im #Fediverse geschrieben. Er berichtet über die ruhige Schönheit eines Platzes, auf dem die Leute einfach das Teilen, was sie wissen. Er freut sich über fehlende Werbung undkünstliche Aufregung. Und geniesst, wenn jemand mit 20 Jahren in Arktischer Politik nachts um 2 einen Thread schreibt, weil er sein Wissen teilen will.

Und schliesst mit den Worten:

«Das ist das Internet, welches mir 1996 versprochen wurde!»

I know blind people that willingly don't describe their images on Facebook.

I know blind people, actually, the majority of blind people, that *love* cloud based LLMs and can't stand any critique of the shitty people behind the tool, let alone the companies.

I know blind people that want TTS narrating audiobooks and audio description for everyone instead of humans.

I know blind people that sincerely believe audiobooks should *never* be used in an educational setting because Braille is better so audiobooks should *never* be used in an educational setting.

I know blind people that argue against having audio description and against accessibility because we should be fully independent.

Sighted people must understand that in the blind community especially, there's a *LOT* of blind people and even otherwise disabled people that *hate* all this “PC nonsense” PC is political correctness, but they're arguing against their own interests.

It happens in my own gay community too so instead of listening to blind people that hate other blind people, why not listen to a collective of blind people/other disabled people working to better local or digital environments.

I honestly didn't like the Against Access article when it came out, and I certainly don't like this quote being used to argue *against* access/accessibility instead of participating in an ongoing conversation about an optional filter.

Disagree with the filter all you want but *don't use another disabled person's shortsightedness to take away my access.* https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/29496#issuecomment-4429977820 #Accessibility #AltText #A11y #Disability #Blind #Mastodon #Fediverse

It is wonderful you are active on the #fediverse and are pondering these questions. Going #POSSE is already a huge step in the right direction.

PS. The share buttons under the article to either Facebook or LinkedIn stood out to me, given the subject matter :)
