"I could sum up the biggest discoveries I made over the summer this way:

Lesson 1: It’s all about the #instances
Lesson 2: It’s crucial not to take things at face value, but experiment
Lesson 3: It’s important to be strategic about long-term viability

Points number 1 and 2 may be interesting for advanced #Fediverse users, while number 3 is for everyone, even newbies."

O governo brasileiro poderia seguir o exemplo dos Países Baixos ao invés de ficar com discurso vazio de soberania nacional.

"O governo holandês anuncia que disponibilizará o Mastodon para todas as camadas de todo o governo holandês, como um serviço compartilhado do governo, a partir de 2025!

O piloto do Mastodon do governo comemora seu aniversário de um ano hoje e, como parte da avaliação, eles declararam que o piloto do Mastodon "fortalece a autonomia digital e [cria] um fornecimento de informações seguro e confiável"."

Fediverse Sprechstunde!
🗓️ am Donnerstag 24.04.2025, 19:30 Uhr!
ONLINE!

Bist du #neu oder #neuhier in der Welt des Fediverse? Kein Problem! Wir helfen dir bei den ersten Schritten: Profil einrichten, Sicherheitstipps, Posten und Vernetzung. Sei dabei!

Hauptthema: #Lemmy mit @Ranslite .
Ich freue mich darauf und hoffe es werden weitere Nutzer von Lemmy dabei sein.
Lemmy ist wie ein föderiertes Reddit aufgebaut: Der Fokus liegt auf Themen-Communities, in denen Beiträge (z. B. Links, Texte, Bilder) gepostet und kommentiert werden. Die Diskussionen sind eher threadbasiert und themenzentriert.

Eingeladen sind ebenso alle, die bereits Erfahrungen mit Mastodon, Friendica, Pixelfed, Misskey, Hubzilla oder anderen Anwendungen haben und ihr Wissen gerne weitergeben möchten.

Wissensaustausch: Deine Kenntnisse im Fediverse könnten anderen Teilnehmern sehr nützlich sein, besonders denjenigen, die noch neu in der Community sind.
Networking: Dies ist eine hervorragende Gelegenheit, sich mit anderen engagierten Mitgliedern der Gemeinschaft zu vernetzen und neue Kontakte zu knüpfen.
Ideen und Inspiration: Deine Perspektive als erfahrener Benutzer oder Betreiber einer Instanz kann dazu beitragen, innovative Ideen zu fördern und die Zukunft des Fediverse mitzugestalten.

Der Raum wird 10 Minuten vor Beginn geöffnet.
Der Link: wird hier 1 Tag davor gepostet

Das Online-Treffen findet auf unserem BigBlueButton-Server statt. Du benötigst keine zusätzliche Software, sondern nur einen Browser – vorzugsweise Firefox oder Chrome – ein Mikrofon (es handelt sich schließlich um eine Sprechstunde) und, wenn du möchtest, eine Webcam. Wir freuen uns auf einen lebhaften Austausch! 🎙️ 🙋‍♀️

Der Ablauf der Sprechstunde sieht folgendermaßen aus: Zu Beginn geben wir Tipps und Hinweise für Anfänger und Einsteiger. Anschließend geht es um Ratschläge für Instanzbetreiber und Moderatoren. Ein solcher Austausch ist wichtig und notwendig für eine gute Vernetzung untereinander. Die Welt des Fediverse ist Größer und vielfältiger. Mehr Miteinander statt Gegeneinander.

Je mehr mitmachen, desto besser!

It was our honor to host the Fediverse House at SXSW 2025. It didn’t matter whether you were in the ActivityPub or AT Proto camp. We were all Team Fediverse, uniting to “move fast and break kings” in the name of building a better internet.

Ghost devs should talk to the @gotosocial devs about optimizations. My server (running on a small $8/mo Hetzner instance) barely uses any memory (less than 1GB) and doesn’t break a sweat when the wonderful @lisamelton (33k followers) boosts one of my posts.

Sometimes, I find myself feeling burnt out about the #Fediverse. There’s a huge amount of promise, but lots of turmoil, struggle, and infighting. Sometimes, I worry about how sustainable this thing is.

ActivityPub Starter Kits update:

I'm making exceptional progress and am wrapping up a few things before I prepare to launch this exciting new service!

ICYMI: I'm building an open source/self-hostable Starter Kit service that will allow fediverse users to safely build kits and share/use them with ease.

Dear Fedi friends,

Can you please join me in giving a warm welcome to @laurenlopes?

Lauren and I interacted on Threads, where she stumbled upon some of my posts from #TheFutureIsFederated and became curious about the #Fediverse (please Lauren correct me if I'm wrong).

Well, earlier this week Lauren joined #Mastodon 🥳

It always gives me a warm fuzzy feeling when I see someone climb over the walled gardens of Big Tech platforms to explore the Fediverse.

Welcome Lauren!!!

Post explicando de forma mais detida o NeoDB e sua instância ocidental, a eggplant.place.

Nele, há um contexto histórico e um tutorial de como adicionar mídia (livros, filmes, séries, games, jogos de tabuleiro e podcasts).

O texto é longo, mas deixei um Sumário para ir direto a parte desejada.

PS: Não sei como fazer aquele código HTML ou Markdown para clicar e ampliar a imagem. Por enquanto, se o print estiver muito pequeno, basta dar zoom com Control + Scroll do Mouse :-) Depois tento editar e melhorar isso.

Write.as x sub.club

Today we’re excited to announce a collaboration with sub.club, a brand new platform to help writers sustainably publish on the fediverse! With our new integration, you can offer your most loyal readers a paid subscription, and publish exclusive blog posts that they can subscribe to from their favorite platform.

Since 2018, Write.as has been part of the fediverse, an open social network that enables people to create, share, and socialize seamlessly across a variety of services. Along with WriteFreely, the open source software behind our platform, we’ve helped bring long-form content to the millions of people on this network.

Now with sub.club, your biggest fans can help fund your writing, and read exclusive posts made just for them conveniently in their social web feed. Sub.club’s Anuj Ahooja (@quillmatiq) shows how our new integration works here:

Getting Started

Connecting your Write.as blog to sub.club is easy, and works seamlessly to keep your posts in sync across platforms.

To get started on sub.club, you’ll first need an account in the fediverse (for example, on a platform like Mastodon). If you’re already a Write.as Pro subscriber, you can grab a free account on our writing-focused community, Writing Exchange — see your Blogs page for more information.

Next, you’ll create a sub.club account and connect it to Stripe. This will allow you to set a subscription price, and start collecting payments from your subscribers.

With that out of the way, you’re ready to connect your sub.club account to Write.as!

Connecting sub.club

Go to your sub.club dashboard and scroll to find the Post via API section. Click the copy button next to where you see API key.

Now on Write.as, go to your blog’s Customize page, and scroll to the Monetization section. Paste your API key into the “sub.club” section, and save your changes.

Note: For full capabilities, be sure to also enable Federation on this page, if you haven’t already.

Now you can start monetizing your posts!

Premium Posts

Write.as makes it easy to choose which posts are free or exclusive to your sub.club subscribers. To publish a paid post, you’ll insert this special shortcode into your posts where you want the paid content to begin:

Once published, this will hide content beyond this marker, and create a link that prompts readers to continue reading on sub.club. Once there, they can also subscribe to future premium posts, if they haven’t already.

Over on the fediverse, your Write.as blog posts will show all content up to the “paid” section, with your full post directly embedded. Thanks to sub.club’s close integration with the fediverse, existing subscribers will be able to read the full post right their in their social feed! And for anyone who hasn’t subscribed yet, they’ll be able to head over to sub.club and subscribe using their fediverse account.

Here is an example of what your Write.as post will look, depending on which client you’re using:

What’s Next

As more people use this new integration on Write.as, we’ll continue refining it and improving the experience for readers and writers alike. As you try this out, please send us your feedback on our forum or in the fediverse by replying to @write_as!

Beyond that, we’ll bring this feature to WriteFreely, so even more people can publish premium blog posts across the open social web. We can’t wait to see what everyone creates!

想写一篇介绍联邦宇宙的博客，老是浮现这个meme开头...
What you're referring to as mastodon, is in fact, Fediverse.

#fediverse #联邦宇宙 #长毛象 #mastodon

What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/LInux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utiliies and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called “Linux’, and many of its users are not aware thatitis basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, butitis just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kemnel: the program in the system that allocates the machine’s resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/LInuUX.

This is what the future of publishing looks like 🚀

It makes me feel so happy to log onto my #Wordpress site & see this new #ActivityPub menu item about the number of followers of my blog from the #Fediverse. And comments awaiting moderation, which are usually Fediverse replies to my federated blog post. It's just so cool!!! (Yes, I will probably keep gushing about this for another month or so, please bear with me) 🤗

Where it all began: https://elenarossini.com/2024/07/hello-fediverse/

You can follow my blog here: @ele

a screenshot of my Wordpress dashboard showing: 90 posts, 31 pages, 85 comments and 106 Followers (Blog).

Unrelated to the conversation but there is also a mention of Akismet having blocked almost 11000 spam comments. So thank you Akismet!

Most of the mastodon.social #botnet we recently confirmed is still intact.
https://mastodon.social/@madeindex/113214966299464693

Only the accounts we all reported were banned, while the others are still active.

The #reports specifically mentioned that they are part of a larger botnet, to no effect.

#Mastodon #software seems to be great at automatically detecting obvious botnets, like the first example while struggling with #AI generated, higher-quality profiles.
