#FediAlgo (the customizable timeline algorithm / filtering system for your Mastodon feed) v1.2.2 is deployed now. Has a switch that makes sure any #hashtags / users / etc. that you follow are displayed as filter options even if they don't meet the minimum number of recent toots threshold.

Also a bunch of bug fixes and small improvements.

😃 Convinced a coworker to try #Mastodon

🙁 She found the global timeline.

I've migrated my #Mastodon account twice. It was not a very complex process, and took me less than half an hour each time. And I took almost all of my followers with me automatically.

And if you are on Mastodon.social, I recommend that you should consider migrating your account, too. I don't have anything personally against that instance, mind you. But it is _bad_ for the #Fediverse if there is any instance that has become "too big to block". If the moderators struggle with keeping out bad actors - and I've heard that there is a problem with that over there - then admins of other instances have to face the difficult choice of either tolerating an instance with bad actors, or cutting off their own users from a huge chunk of the people they are connected with.

And each instance has their own safety needs. I mean, I wouldn't want the strict enforcement of, say, Mastodon.art for my own instance, but I understand and can appreciate why their admins act as they do.

If you want to see the dangers of a "top-heavy" Fediverse, just look to #Bluesky . In theory, they are a federated system. But in practice, the vast majority of all users are concentrated on one system with one set of moderators so that their moderation sets the tone for Bluesky in its entirety - and their users have little choices but to accept that.

On the Fediverse, we have the chance to avoid that. And the more spread out the user base is, the better will the moderation be - it keeps everyone honest if users can easily leave to a different instance with better moderation.

Karma is something. It’s been exactly 35 years since five boys were arrested for things they did not do, then held for a vicious attack they did not commit. The evil thug who put out this 1989 ad against the five boys (now Exonerated Five) is NOW in a NYC courtroom ON TRIAL. #nyc #centralpark #exoneratedfive #Mastodon #BlackMastodon

It's been another year since I've done an introductory "This is me" style post, so I think it's time to refresh it...again.

Please allow me to re-introduce myself!

Primary Nonsense I Post: Dad jokes, manga, Animal Crossing, music (lots of J-Pop and K-Pop), NYT Games (Wordle, Strands, Connections - always behind a spoiler)

Fav Manga: Akane-Banashi, One Piece, Sailor Moon, Fist of the North Star, Blue Box, Donald Duck Visits Japan

On #Mastodon, how can I see a feed of posts from JUST the people I am following?

I joined infosec and IT groups, shut down Twitter, Bluesky, LinkedIn, and all that shit. I'm stuck with Mastodon, Reddit, and Github, and I still have to constantly dodge shitty people who only talk about politics.
Obviously the problem is not social media but human stupidity.
I'm narrowing the spectrum of people I follow, filtering and blocking unbearable topics.
As expected, I use compartmentalization and have accounts to read stealthily and without interacting.
I think I'll end up leaving Mastodon too. Maybe it's just another silly utopia.

😂 That was odd! When I mentioned @darnell@flipboard.com on my #WordPress blog, it pinged my #Flipboard account on my iPhone even though #ActivityPub is not yet activated (I received a push notification, which later revealed nothing 😆).

If it pings again via #Mastodon, I might do various tests upon other #Fediverse accounts (like #Misskey & #Threads).

Guten Morgen - Tässle Kaffee ☕️?

Als ich die Konzernmedien #Facebook , #Instagram & #TwitterX verließ, verzichtete ich auf große #Reichweite. Doch es war mir wichtiger, unsere Abhängigkeit von #Konzernmedien aus den #USA & #China zu verringern. Ich wollte & will ein europäisches #Fediversum ohne #Neurohacking - Algorithmen.

Deswegen bin ich glücklich, dass nun erstmals 1 #Zeitung meine #Mastodon - Posts zu #JimmyKimmel & #Disney aufgriff. #Medien #Deutschland https://www.stuttgarter-zeitung.de/inhalt.disney-auf-schlingerkurs-kimmel-macht-sich-bei-rueckkehr-auch-ueber-disney-konzern-lustig.7d5ae1d6-06d0-409a-ae0c-bfd8ac52588d.html

Lemmy is so much nicer than Reddit. Specially with the Voyager client.

Desde mi página web https://www.autumn64.xyz se puede acceder a todos mis pasatiempos y actividades que realizo en internet. Recuerden que hosteo desde mi casa y se va la luz a menudo, por lo que no puedo prometer un uptime del 100%. En caso de que la página no sea accesible el mirror está en https://autumn64.codeberg.page

En cuanto a los servicios web está activa la instancia de SearXNG (metabuscador) y de Redlib (frontend alternativo para Reddit). También subí algunos documentos y un libro que me faltaba publicar en el apartado de Artículos y Libros.

¡Muchas gracias por todo el apoyo!

Gosto demais de poder anexar imagem externa em publicações aqui, simplesmente incluindo-a no texto com a sintaxe Markdown , sem necessitar enviá-la e armazená-la no servidor do #Snac.

Essa é uma funcionalidade que poderia ser até mais destacada, pois já tentei fazer o mesmo em outro servidor que também suporta Markdown (Akkoma/Mangane), sem sucesso.

SNAC é um servidor ActivityPub extremamente minimalista e, por isso, bem peculiar, porém apresenta algumas funções únicas, como essa. Ele não é ideal para quem quer utilizá-lo majoritariamente com aplicativos clientes feitos para a API #Mastodon, pois seu funcionamento é bem distinto daquele mais comum e não tem o compromisso de apresentar as mesmas soluções para as mesmas funcionalidades. Mesmo assim, há casos em que se adequa muito bem. Se não faz questão de ficar o tempo todo interagindo com a Federação ActivityPub ou, por exemplo, se pretende criar um perfil para publicação automatizada por algum na máquina em que ele está rodando, isso fica muito fácil, pois já possui tudo que precisa no comando, além de ser pouco exigente em requisitos de memória e processamento. Pode ser compilado em praticamente qualquer plataforma POSIX e seus arquivos ficam numa árvore única de diretórios, tornando a transferência para outra máquina relativamente bem simples. Sua interface na Web é simples para quem utiliza e também para quem lê, ao sequer exigir a execução de JavaScript. Apenas HTML e CSS.

Como analista de tecnologia da informação, especulando sobre o ciclo de vida dos sistemas, considero provável que, por ter mínimas dependências, SNAC demore bem mais que outros servidores mais complexos para se inviabilizar ou precisar sofrer reescritas drásticas, desde que se forme uma comunidade maior que o mantenha ativo se porventura faltar seu criador.

- Are you the admin on a public Fediverse server which has sign-ups open?

- Would you like your server listed on https://fedi.garden ?

- Is your server compatible with all seven points at https://fedi.garden/about-this-site ?

If so, please message me 🙂

(NOTE: It can be Mastodon or it can be other types of Fediverse server such as PeerTube, GoToSocial, Pixelfed etc.)

Today, I restarted my monthly donations to @Mastodon through Patreon. I encourage others to do the same! #Mastodon #Fediverse #Donate

We're sad to see that IFTAS Connect has begun the process of shutting down.

We, like many other server admins, often found advice and help from the community there.

We hope that by preserving the 'Connect' news feed with Channel.org tech we can give back to the community.

Thank you for the work by @iftas and everyone involved, including all the admins who shared their thoughts there.

We look forward to seeing what's next for community collaboration on the Fediverse.

I have a Mastodon List of "Group Accounts", which makes for a good timeline of discussions around specific topics.

I have no idea how @phanpy would accomplish this, but it would be cool to have a type of "Catch Up" page where posts are organized by Group Account, sorted by date and thread.

I mean at that point you might as well just visit PieFed or NodeBB! But it would be nice. :)
