mastodon

it seems #mastodon has been around for about 1,000,000 years. That's 𖭞 for you & me. I think I'm still using the same password.

Pff.. How do I redirect #Mastodon requests in #nginx?

My server constantly gets DOSed because of the massive amount of requests from the Fedi

This isn't fun anymore

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.

Just learned some frankly disconcerting stuff, accounts on #private #SocialMedia #platforms that have more than 10,000 followers actually get paid.

This makes me sad.

But also glad that I am dedicated to the #fediverse, #mastodon in particular.

I don’t say shit for clicks nor $$$$.

I am dedicated to the desimination of true factual #information.

I see the #FarRight #Nazi #propaganda #disinformation campaign for what it is, & I hope to be a rock in the road on the way to their #tyranny.

🤷🏼‍♀️

Did I dream that Mastodon introduced the ability to add alt-text to profile pics and banners in the profile settings? Doesn't appear to be an option for me. #Mastodon #alttext

Hey @MonaApp - I really love the app, been using it since launch. Ever considered having an option for full width text and images vs. having the empty space?

#mastodon #fediverse

Please report any account that tells you that you need to verify your #Mastodon account to continue using it through a private message. It is a scam. We do not require identity verification. Real staff accounts either have a special role badge on their profile or are verified through the joinmastodon.org domain and will typically never reach out through private messages.

I have a #Scheme script for public #mastodon api queries

fedi.scm -tags pc.cafe

Time for a new #introduction!

I'm a former #geographer & #mapmaker, now working on a #PhD project in digital #archaeology, between #Prehistory and #openSource #geospatial.

I used to work as an #artist, I'm into #sailing (I was #livingAboard during a few years) and #musicMaking is my happy place. I'm also a happy #dad and I'm fluent in fr, en & es.

Finally, I'm the proud admin of https://Mapstodon.space, a great #Mastodon instance dedicated to maps — & full of decent and interesting people!

Cuidado com a nova onda de golpes rondando o fediverso

Contas falsas se fazem passar por equipes de moderação do Mastodon, como se todas as instâncias fossem parte de uma empresa só.

Elas solicitam uma falsa verificação de identidade, coisa que o fediverso não faz, pois são dados sensíveis e muita dor de cabeça para um serviço voluntário lidar.

Não acredite nas mensagens nem cliquem nos links. Em vez disso, denunciem a conta falsa se ver ela ou se for contactado por ela.

ℹ️ Aqui na Ursal as únicas contas oficiais da gestão são: @Ursalzona @Bruiserzinha @liaamancio @red. Esta (@cadusilva) e @ReeSilva cuidam de manter tudo no ar.

#PSA
#Mastodon, nor the #Fediverse in general will never ask you to "verify" with payment details, especially not from a non-moderator account. If you get a message asking you to verify, it is a #Scam #Bot, and you should block and #report it to #moderation.

We are currently getting a wave of #spam from bots like this. Again, do not even click the link, just block and report.

Fediverse.Games is Waiting for You!

Are you looking for a friendly, inclusive fediverse community? Fediverse.Games has a variety of services, and we're taking on new members on all of them!

The Services

Mastodon

Our OG service is Mastodon! We run glitch-soc, which gives you longer posts, markdown formating, and plenty of other fun stuff!

PeerTube

The second (and fastest growing!) service we offer is PeerTube. Our PeerTube allows import from your YouTube channel and 50GB of free video hosting!

WriteFreely

We've recently added WriteFreely to our services! It isn't a perfect service, but it's the best option of those available and we think it's a great addition, and we hope the long-form games writing community will grow with our contribution to it.

The Rules

We wish to run a friendly, kind and inclusive server, and do not have any tolerance for discrimination or bigotry of any kind, including but not limited to racism, ableism, homophobia and transphobia. It can be hard enough for people to be their true selves offline, let's not make it harder online too.

We also have no tolerance for the promotion or nazi, alt-right and ultra-conservative ideologies.

In the pursuit of accessibility, we ask users to add alt-text to their images where they're apply to for the advantage of those using screen readers to interact with us. However, we also do not tolerate abuse toward users who might forget to do so or aren't used to doing it yet.

Legal Status

All of our infrastructure and user data is held in Australia.

Further Reading

We also have a wiki, where you can read our server charter and what we can expect of each other in more detail:
