Still figuring out where to move on Mastodon after Forkiverse closes. When I land somewhere, I'll post the new address here. The people are worth keeping track of. #fediverse #mastodon

Little Fedi looks like an interesting project! I also saw a toot earlier where it was showing a settings screen where someone disabled media without a description. https://littlefedi.org/ #AltText #Fediverse #ActivityPub #Mastodon

everyone on fedi always posting about ai going rogue, but never about ai going rouge, and I'm starting to think you guys don't really care about fashion.

If you could only follow one person on the #fediverse who would it be

Is there a Fedi service that aggregate all the links posted from my followers into one RSS feed that I can subscribe to for the times that I don’t log onto the Fediverse? I did find mastodon to RSS but that uses an algorithm to only show the links that are most clicked, and I want a service that shares every link that my followers post even if no one clicks on it.

I am not looking to self host. I’m looking for a fully managed service.

We have the winner of our Fediverse Asshole of the Year award.

This sorry excuse of a human being has made a list of all the people who are verified to be from Gaza and facing genocide. Why? So you can block them.

If you ever wonder who your jailers are going to be in the coming age of fascism, it’s going to be psychopaths like this son of a bitch right here.

@jon, are genocidal assholes like this welcome on @Vivaldi’s server. Does this go against your terms of service? Will you be taking any action against this account?

My mother bakes our bread every morning under the scorching sun, surrounded by suffocating smoke from the fire.This bread is all we have left. We urgently need $40 for flour and firewood to cook our food and bread, and $195 for school supplies, bags, and clothes for me and my four younger siblings. If you can’t donate, please share our struggle so it reaches someone who can help, even with $1. You are our only hope.

Ich habe mein Profil auf „Follower bestätigen" umgestellt.

Grund: Beim Durchschauen sind mir ein paar merkwürdige Accounts aufgefallen.

Einer folgte nur mir und sonst niemandem, ohne einen einzigen Tröt.
Ein anderer war ein paar Tage alt und hatte schon hunderte Boosts raus.

Ich möchte niemanden abschrecken. Ich bestätige gern und schnell. Ich möchte nur sowas vermeiden. 🙂

I don't know if #FediHood will be adopted by the #Fediverse community, but I am still doing my best for it. Three new features have been added:

- Emoji reactions to messages (federated)
- Theme customization (with presets available)
- An option to automatically delete your own posts

FediHood lets you build timelines based on people near you and on topics. More: https://fedihood.social/about

Periodic official communication, just to clarify a few things.

The BSD Cafe is an open, inclusive and friendly community. A community of people who try to be *“pro, not against”* and *“supporters, not haters”*: enthusiasts, friends, people who come here to share, to learn, to discuss. Not to hate each other.

This does not mean that we all have to think in the same way. Quite the opposite: it means that we can have different opinions, discuss them, defend them strongly, and question each other’s ideas.

What it does not mean is that it is acceptable to insult, threaten, attack people, or pretend that there can only be one morally acceptable position on every possible subject.

Calling the BSD Cafe a "Nazi Bar" from the outside simply because we do not automatically censor people who have an opinion different from yours is offensive towards the hundreds of people who are part of this community.

People are, of course, free to criticise what happens here. But expecting us to attack, ban or silence someone because you believe they deserve it, and then accusing the whole Cafe because we do not, is something different.

And I have seen something even worse lately: actual calls for hate. The equivalent of *“hey, everyone, go and attack this person”*, simply because that person does not share your position.

No. This is not acceptable.

And, dear friends, declaring yourself anti-Nazi while organising a crowd against somebody, intimidating them and treating them as an enemy who deserves to be attacked means using exactly the kind of methods you claim to oppose.

I do not say this lightly. I come from a family, and from a country, with a very real history of fascism and of the antifascism that immediately followed it. These are not just abstract words to me.

Hate is not tolerated, at any level, inside or outside the Cafe. The same is true for threats, intimidation and aggression. Believing that our cause is right does not make those behaviours more acceptable.

You disagree with someone? Say it. Explain why. Argue against their ideas. Support yours with all the conviction you want. But do not aggressively attack. This is not tolerated.

And expecting everyone else to attack that person too, or considering them somehow complicit because they do not, is something different. And it is not what I want for this community.

On any subject.

Even pineapple on pizza (!!!).

The Fediverse is a non-place, but it is made of real people. Wonderful people, very often. Let’s not turn it into version 2.0 of traditional social media, where every discussion becomes a war and anyone who does not think exactly like us automatically becomes the enemy.

In the last few weeks I have seen people stepping away exactly because of this. On different subjects, people accused of the worst things not because of something they had done, but because they had not said what someone expected them to say. Some of them, for their own wellbeing, simply decided to take a step back.

We all lost something because of that. Nobody gained anything.

So let’s keep supporting what we believe in. Let’s do it with conviction, and with firmness when needed. But let’s discuss ideas without turning people into targets.

From experience, I have learnt that real change also requires discussion, organisation, patience and concrete actions. We can disagree deeply without stopping considering each other as people.

This is the kind of place I want the BSD Cafe to continue to be.

People who love photography in the #Fediverse are probably already aware of #Vernissage, an open source photo-sharing project.

It has its own API, but like I did with #Misskey a few months ago, I think I could bring it to #Fedilab.
The idea is to support its endpoints and map the responses to what the app already uses, especially since Fedilab has a media-only view.

🆕 blog! “ActivityBot is the recipient of an NLnet grant!”

Back in February, I applied for NLnet's Next Generation Zero grant. They were looking for Fediverse projects to help rewild the social media landscape. Or, as they describe it:

Reclaim the public nature of the internet

Small and medium-sized R&D grants between 5.000 and 50.000 euro,…

The fediverse should have a dislike button or anything close to it to blackpill other users when they make bad posts. Even Youtube had it before it was cucked. #feature #fediverse #thinking

This comes from "iLands.ai" and it's truly a plague, these also signup constantly all over the #Fediverse

Überlegung aus einer Unterhaltung neulich:
Gibt es eigentlich so eine Art "Dachverband" für Personen/Institutionen, die Fediverse-Dienste betreiben, also Server, von zB Peertube, Mobilizon, Bookwyrm, *key, Mastodon, ...?

Wäre das sinnvoll, um "gemeinsam stark" zu sein, um sich als "Organisationseinheit" nach außen hin präsentieren zu können?

Das soll ganz und gar nicht die Dezentralität des Fediverses in Frage stellen, es sollen ja keine Abhängigkeiten voneinander entstehen.

Einfach "nur" als organistatorischer Zusammenschluss, bspw. in Form einer Genossenschaft oder so?

(Fragt mich bitte nicht "Welchen Nutzen soll das haben", das wäre ja zu ergründen.)
