fediverse

Newcomers keep coming here. Welcome everyone!
Don’t forget, a good transition is a soft transition. Habits needs to be planted, and then grow. Here, no company wants you to develop addiction and click on ads, so there is a discovery time you may want to take to build your Fediverse network! Enjoy this time!
Also ask me anything, I am a 7 years old fedi citizen maybe able to help, or find someone who can.

I was really excited for the #Fediverse in 2024 and I think that feeling has borne out. Projects have released or started in earnest but so did the influenze of facebook, a long-term genocide and queer violence supporter who have this week changed their terms to expressly permit queerphobic and other vicious harms.

⭐️ Spotlight ⭐️

This week in our Community tab, we've featured these inspiring voices from the fediverse, including experts on everything from British history to the NFL.

#Fedify 1.6 is approaching with three major enhancements: RFC 9421 HTTP Message Signatures support with double-knocking for seamless backward compatibility, a new builder pattern for better code organization in large applications, and native #Cloudflare #Workers support for serverless deployments. These additions strengthen Fedify's standards compliance while expanding deployment flexibility across different environments. Stay tuned for the official release! 🚀

#Fediverse currently: "Are you a brave dev? Yes, then go for it and hack & slash something together that with luck becomes modestly successful. And enjoy your thing, you lucky bastard" 😅

Fedi must become a heterogeneous interoperable social network where service development is way easier, more inclusive, where services compose / orchestrate / choreograph into solutions that serve people's needs. Add missing social layers full of building blocks, to this technosphere techstack we currently have.

Mastoart.social is a friendly international Mastodon server for creative people of all skill levels in visual arts, crafts, music, writing and more. (AI is not allowed.)

This account blocks "Mastodon.Social"

Lack of responsibility by the moderator and the prevalence of spam & hostile accounts and the practice of bad actors makes the instance, as a whole, a threat to other servers and their users on the #fediverse .

Will you be in or near Austin, TX, on March 9 and 10? We're gathering people passionate about decentralized social media for two days of panels, networking, learning, and fun during the first-ever Fediverse House.

We’ll be sharing official details soon, but for now we wanted to do a special roll call 📯 for creators, publishers, podcasters, community builders, and developers.

Let us know if you’ll be there as we are currently finessing our programming lineup and looking for expert voices to showcase and partner with. Thank you! 🤙

Is there an analog for #researchgate in the #Fediverse?

In a way, https://bookwyrm.social/ comes close to this. Bibliometric information like the number of citations might be taken from different sources like #openalex and #wikidata.

#FediHelp

Found this site that lists fediverse emoji by instance, along with a collection of emoji packs you can install.

I knew some instances had a lot of emojis, but some have over 10,000?! Just as interesting, at the very bottom of this long list, are instances that have only 1 emoji. Why just one, and why that one? Inquiring minds want to know.

Hey #Fediverse.

If you are using the @surf beta, I’d like get some feedback over the next few hours from y’all. Tell me what you like, what you don’t like. What features you’d like to see added, changed, etc.

Just reply to post with your feedback.

Reason I’m asking is, I have a feedback meeting with @marci and the Surf team.

You can read about the instance here 👉 https://makertube.net/about/instance #peertube

There is a new tool called Splinter which makes it easier to create Mastodon threads. You enter the full text and it splits it up and posts it as a thread automatically (it also has options for manual splitting).

More info in the announcement post at:

➡️ https://social.hastily.cc/@neiman/114591328088507928

The Splinter tool itself is at:

➡️ https://splinter.hastily.cc

Techy people can self-host Splinter if they prefer, the source code is at https://codeberg.org/neiman/splinter and its author is @neiman
