mastodon
Galera linda e novinha (ou até mais antiga) do #mastodon! Seguem algumas dicas para melhorar sua vida por aqui 
Se achar longo, salva. Mas LEIA! É bem importante
Cuidem da sua bio 
Coloquem uma foto, escrevam um textinho, mesmo que simples. Botem boas informações como gostos e hobbies no perfil 
E uns toots (postagens) não fazem mal a ninguém, assim sai confundido com um 🤖
Faça a sua #introdução em um toot 
Essa #apresentação é uma boa maneira de conhecer novas pessoas e interagir no #fediverso! O pessoal tem costume de dar 
, então aproveite!
O #fediverso é construído com interações, então se quiser ser seguido é bom interagir 🦜 Mais em (por @pancho) https://bolha.one/@pancho/113135497401808790
Deixe sua linha do tempo bem viva! Além de seguir pessoas, é bom seguir e usar #hashtags por aqui 
Conheça as várias @TagsBR que acontecem semanalmente 
Também que podemos seguir e interagir com timelines de outras instâncias também. Muito bão isso 
Abaixo (links) tem ótimas listagens de instâncias brasileiras (e até latino-americanas). Lembrem que SEMPRE pode mudar de servidor. Seu servidor, sua instância faz MUITA DIFERENÇA na sua experiência aqui no #fediverso. Se está achando sem graça ou só não está gostando tanto, pense em mudar 
Ainda mais importante para quem está na mastodon.social que é a mais genérica possível. Quando mudei, tudo mudou 
https://social.harpia.red/notice/AfFmRYvjOIPbOXJPxQ (por @kariboka) e https://brasil.rednet.social/ (por @santiago)
Use e teste diferentes aplicativos para ver o que mais gosta. Já usei vários e recomendo o @moshidon para #android (feito pelo @lucas_na_ursal). O #moshidon, por exemplo, permite interagir com a timeline de várias instâncias. Depois coloco uma recomendação aqui de um app para iOS.
Postou uma imagem, um gif ou um vídeo, coloque o texto alternativo. Isso é bem importante e valorizado por aqui. Eu mesmo só dou boost se tiver texto alternativo. Outra dica importante é descrever sua foto e capa do perfil 
O #mastodon na web também pode ser acessado com interfaces alternativas como: elk.zone e https://phanpy.social. Experimente, o #fediverso é cheio experiências diferentes e proveitosas! Um mundo novo 
Além da #hashtags você também podem seguir interagir com comunidades do Lemmy (Forum ou Reddit daqui) ou de grups. Basta seguir que vai aparecer na sua timelime e marcar em um toot para aparecer por lá ou para quem segue. Exemplo @ fediverso@a.gup.pe ou @ internet@lemmy.eco.br. Pode achar outras comunidades aqui:
Lemmy Brasil: https://lemmy.eco.br/communities
Forum da Ayom.Media:https://forum.ayom.media/communities
Forum da Bolha.us: https://bolha.forum/communities
O #fediverso tem muitas alternativas descentralizadas, então explore 🚀 Só alguns exemplos abaixo, existem muito mais🤘

Fediverse is still the most lively social network I have ever used, since MySpace in 2003. It is better than Twitter or any commercial social media platform ever was. Absolutely love being here.
The most profound thing about it is the international coverage. After the first wave of enshittification in 2010, algorithms took over, and suddenly as a polyglot I was labeled as Finnish. No more visible international posts, people only saw the Finnish ones.
I've noticed the same effect in commercial AI. It ignores the fact that I use English online 99% of the time and still replies to me in Finnish despite all instructions. Algorithms and AI label you. They assign you a language, a status, a certain type of person. There's no changing that.
The Fediverse and Mastodon are delightfully mine, yours, and truly open source - respecting privacy. Nobody's machine can tell you, "You are this, and this is why we do that."
Fuck labelers and the fog machines. Let me be me. Here, on my own server, I can embrace my weirdness and post however I want, how often I want, whenever I want, in whatever language I choose - without constantly worrying about how my identity will be perceived by a machine.

We will be updating our #Mastodon instances to 4.4.1 shortly.
There may be a short downtime of your instance while the update is ongoing. This is due to some special migrations that are required for this new version.

Not that this will affect anyone but me and @elliot , but I have imported the GardenFence Mastodon blocklist for spammy servers - https://github.com/gardenfence/blocklist/blob/main/gardenfence-mastodon.csv bar some such as bird.makeup (Twitter accounts), mostr.pub (nostr bridge) and one that is just scanning ActivityPub instances
just noticed today that #Mastodon 4.4 added optional about, privacy, and tos links in instance info
Xab hai rotto con tutti questi account
Lo so, lo so, perdonatemi!
Per ora qui sto giusto sperimentando, l'account principale al momento resta @Xabacadabra e qui sto prendendo le misure per un eventuale futuro:
Intanto, mi sconvolge poter scrivere quanto voglio senza dover spezzare in mille post un thread (anche se a parte questo post mi terrò sempre sui soliti 500 caratteri con un post nel blog per cose più lunghe)
Poi trovo bello mantenere il discorso Mastodon senza usare Mastodon (software che da tempo mi pare problematico per l'accentramento che occupa nel fediverso e la vecchia questione threads )
L'altro aspetto interessante è che sto scoprendo di più riguardo il protocollo #activityPub che tiene in piedi tutta la baracca

My latest blog post: Migrating my Mastodon server to Masto.host
https://mikecoats.com/migrating-to-masto-host/
I migrated my Mastodon server from a self-hosted DigitalOcean droplet to an instance provided by Masto.host. The process was straightforward and took less than an hour.
If you're only using Mastodon through the official mobile apps, you're missing out on many of its features such as pinned posts, temporary mutes, scheduled posts, different poll types, account redirects and more.
If you want the complete Mastodon experience, you might want to try using your server's website, third party apps, web apps, desktop apps etc.
More info on all the different ways of accessing Mastodon in the guide here:

Y’all. Mastodon has a new Terms of Service that’s problematic. I’m hoping and cautiously optimistic that they’ll sort it out. But for now it’s not good.
@mcc wrote one of the best GitHub issues I’ve ever seen. It explains everything in great detail. Check it out if you want a full picture on the situation.

Big shout out to @stux and mstdn.social for both, a successful server migration AND update to Mastodon 4.4! Looking good!

Okay, sports fans, I've restored 4.3.9 on my private server. Yay!
The problem was that I had updated ruby. That caused local extensions to not be found. The solution was to do this:
gem pristine --all
and enjoy a cup of coffee. The errors stopped, everything was happy again, & I restarted the servers.
I'll pin this one on both servers for a while to spread the solution for "Source locally installed gems is ignoring [whatever] because it is missing extensions."
Raphus Social 🦤 is a better bird site, a safe and inclusive place for bringing together open minded people interested in technology, open source, games, and other general geekery. (In case you are wondering, "Raphus" is Latin for the dodo 🙂)
This server has an extended post size of 1024 characters and up to 8 poll options.

Hello World!
I just spoke with a #US #Senator office about the #fediverse . They're asking for more information to help spread around #Capital #Hill in small bite sized easy to understand pieces. I'm obviously going to give them @elena beautiful #movie on the #fedi (with some light editing which she's agreed to).
I'll of course show them https://fediverse.info/ and https://fedi.tips/ which are great websites. I figured I'd give them examples of amazing #AP projects such as #mastodon , #pixelfed , #peertube , #bandwagon , and #bonfire ; even things like @admin .
I'd love to know from folks any EASY to understand projects that best encompass the Fediverse and explanations of it.
What are some projects you'd hand to your friends and family that would explain and display to them what we are?
I'll say this isn't going to happen over night. There's lot of questions around regulations, trust & safety, etc. But I feel it's pertinent to at least get the conversation going, especially considering the current state of disdain for big social media and the impending legislation around these things.
I'll finally state if there's anyone in this list that does NOT want to be involved with this, that's totally fine and I understand and I can exclude you from the materials I give to them.

Möchte allen danken, die sich in den letzten Jahren im #Fediversum bloggend eingebracht haben. Ob #Mikroblogging auf #Mastodon oder Drukos zu #Blogposts, eigene #Blogs - die Zukunft gehört dem freien Netz statt irgendeinem Datenkonzern. Habe große Accounts auf #Facebook, #Insta, X hinter mir gelassen - und es nicht bereut.

new release of #Fedialgo, the customizable timeline algorithm / filtering system for your Mastodon feed, counts the number of times each hashtag appears in your timeline even if people don't use a "#" character to give you a better sense of what people are talking about in the Fediverse.
there's a little bit of art vs. science here because some strings are disqualified from this kind of counting (e.g. a word like "the" should not be counted even if some maniac decided to make it a hashtag) so let me know if you see any weirdly high counts.
