Good morning Fedi friends!
It's been 99 days since I started self-hosting my own Fediverse instances. Crazy how time flies!
I've been a bit absent from here this week because I started exploring the world of #PeerTube from the POV of a creator.
I just set up my own account on #MakerTube - so that I can write a guide that is accessible to many (as opposed to skipping this step and going straight to self-hosting).
Anyway, here is my PeerTube account: https://makertube.net/a/elena/video-channels
I have been able to follow it from #Mastodon and #Friendica without a problem, but I keep getting an error message when I try to subscribe with my #GoToSocial username. The exact message: "Cannot fetch information from this remote account." Does anybody have the same issue? (as in: people on GoToSocial, can you subscribe to PeerTube channels?)
Wishing you all a lovely day 🌞
P.S.: about to go offline for the rest of the day because... there's no pre-school in France on Wednesdays and the garderie keeps my little one up until 12:30. So apologies in advance if I'm slow to reply to messages.

If I see one more #Mastodon HOA member complain about how *their* feed is burdened by lack of CW from *other* posters, I’m going to snap.

Fediverse Sprechstunde!
🗓️ am Donnerstag 27.02.2025, 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: #Friendica mit Tobias tobias@social.diekershoff.de Ich freue mich darauf.
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: kommt wird hier 1 Tag vor Beginn gepostet und steht in meinem Profil.
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!

The Fourier Transform is a mathematical operation that transforms a function of time (or space) into a function of frequency. It decomposes a complex signal into its constituent sinusoidal components, each with a specific frequency, amplitude, and phase. This is particularly useful in many fields, such as signal processing, physics, and engineering, because it allows for analysing the frequency characteristics of signals. The Fourier Transform provides a bridge between the time and frequency domains, enabling the analysis and manipulation of signals in more intuitive and computationally efficient ways. The result of applying a Fourier Transform is often represented as a spectrum, showing how much of each frequency is present in the original signal.
\[\Large\boxed{\boxed{\widehat{f}(\xi) = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} f(x)\ e^{-i 2\pi \xi x}\,\mathrm dx, \quad \forall\xi \in \mathbb{R}.}}\]
Inverse Fourier Transform:
\[\Large\boxed{\boxed{ f(x) = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \widehat f(\xi)\ e^{i 2 \pi \xi x}\,\mathrm d\xi,\quad \forall x \in \mathbb R.}}\]
The equation allows us to listen to mp3s today. Digital Music Couldn’t Exist Without the Fourier Transform: http://bit.ly/22kbNfi

#PODCAST: Join us next Saturday, March 29 for our #podcast interview with Professor Joseph Patrick Kelly at the College of #Charleston, whose article from TheConversation.com on presidential pardons and violent #racism during American Reconstruction garnered more interest from some of our #Mastodon followers.
Follow us on #Spotify to catch new interviews and more important conversations for Black America and advocates of racial progress.

We’re excited to announce that, from Monday, we’re going to be the new admins of IndieWeb.social!
We’ve always loved how @tchambers has run IndieWeb.social. His direction has made it one of the best instances on the Fediverse!
Thanks to Tim for his trust in us to provide a safe and secure home for the server into the future.

I'm glad they're taking time to think this through.

Lange habe ich #Mastodon mit Posts und Blogposts über die eskalierende #Wasserkrise als Folge der #Klimakatastrophe „genervt“. Nicht nur steigende Temperaturen, sondern die Veränderungen der Wasserkreisläufe würden die Gebirgsregionen treffen.
Nun meldet auch die Stuttgarter Zeitung 🗞️ (22.03.2025, Seite 5): „Gletscherschmelze bedroht Wasserversorgung im Land. Die Landeswasserversorgung (LW) warnt vor Engpässen bei der Trinkwasserversorgung.“ Ja, genau! 😢🔥🇩🇪🇪🇺 https://scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-glaubens/warum-der-sueddeutsche-gebirgsraum-besonders-stark-unter-der-klima-und-wasserkrise-leidet/#comment-169526
I'm exploring a new idea called FediOTP (codename): an authentication system that uses #ActivityPub DMs to deliver one-time passwords, allowing any #fediverse account to authenticate with web services. Unlike current solutions that rely on specific APIs (#Mastodon, #Misskey), this would work with any ActivityPub-compatible server, increasing interoperability across the fediverse. Would love to hear your thoughts on potential challenges or use cases for this approach.
sigh. There are a lot of posts going around right now claiming that #bluesky is feeding data to the various data sniffers that the US government uses for surveillance and that #Mastodon is not.
This. Is. Crap.
Anything you post on Mastodon is nearly as easy to vacuum up as things you post on BlueSky. You should treat *all* social media platforms larger than a Signal group of your college friends + Pete Hegseth as "assumed public." It's slightly more work to slurp up almost all of mastodon but really not that much more.
If you want to, you can set your Mastodon account into follow request mode, so that any follows you get from other people have to be manually approved by you. Here's how to do it:
➡️ https://fedi.tips/restricting-who-can-follow-you-in-mastodon
When you do this, a little padlock 🔒 will appear on your profile.
When you receive a follow request, your server website or app will let you know and you can click ✔️ or ❌ depending on whether you approve or deny the request.
#Mastodon my friend @skelders333 is still in dire need, and things are getting worse as there hase been no movement at all
If you have spoons, can you grab this flyer and share it around?
If you don't have that many spoons can you #Boost
If you have financial security as in a roof and food that is mostly dependent on YOUR labor which provides income can you contribute?

It's been eight years to the day since Lance Ulanoff, the storied Tech and Social Media Expert and an award-winning tech journalist, decided that Mastodon won't survive because William Shatner couldn't find him on here.
Eight years on, Mastodon stubbornly survives:
