RE: https://mastodon.social/@HolosSocial/116183535316096143
Some news from #HolosSocial development. The latest release moves media processing to the device. Videos are transcoded locally before upload. Users can store media on their own S3 or WebDAV server, and the resulting URLs are used directly in #ActivityPub activities. The relay server handles neither transcoding nor media storage. Each user brings their own resources to the #Fediverse.
Happy Labor Day Weekend!

Pixelix is now free!
After two and a half years of developing Pixelix and having it as a paid app, we've decided to switch things up and make Pixelix free for everyone.
We’re really excited to see where this takes Pixelix, and we’re incredibly grateful to everyone who has supported us so far.
#Pixelix #Pixelfed #Vernissage #Fediverse #OpenSource #Android #iOS
Pixelix is a client for Pixelfed and Vernissage. The app is available on the Play Store, the App Store, on GitHub and F-Droid.
We (@(@daniebeler@pixelix.social @hiebeler05) have been developing Pixelix for more than 2 years and will share updates, features, and other things about Pixelix on this account.

Hello world!
We just shipped our first release, and opened the gates to our two instances, cookifed.net and cuisine.social !
#Fediverse today consists of apps and app platforms. It is entirely app-centric.
Since fediverse (luckily) didn't attract much corporate attention yet, it is dominated by #FOSS culture, where people on the #SocialWeb are all "users" that are dependent on FOSS developers to serve their needs. Every dev focuses on their app features first and #interoperability second, leading to a patchwork of poorly integrated apps, and a janky overall experience. The app delivery model is not much different than Web 2.0.
A paradigm shift is possible, to a #SocialNetwork of apps and services, a service-oriented #fedi. The efforts around the #ActivityPub API can be the enabler of this shift.
In this new paradigm devs introduce solutions to a unified #SocialNetworking space, delivering new services to participants on the network. On top of a robust Protocol Layer they model social use cases in the Data Layer, integrating with services and building blocks already available.
For a while now we've been dreaming of building boats ( starting with a #proa ) from old discarded #windturbine blades. Unfortunately despite sending close to a hundred emails (companies, universities, foundations etc) we can't seem to reach anyone with access to them.
So maybe the power of social media and the #fediverse will do the trick 😊
If you know of a place they are just laying around, work for an entity or know someone with access to them please contact us🙏
do australian fedi conferences exist? I've seen a few but they're always at like, 1am aest
Hello (again), after a brief posting hiatus and a search for somewhere to migrate to, I am back on Mastodon! I've been on the fediverse since 2023 but grew tired of the mastodon.social experience and felt like it was time to spread my wings.
A bit about me: I'm a 30-something fellow living in midwestern USA who works two jobs and takes care of two pets at home. I love #retrocomputing #retrogaming #writing #webdesign #electronicmusic #nature and many more things I can't think to list at the moment.
I manage a community for PC gaming on 4:3 displays that has gained a significant following in recent times, you can check us out on #neocities here: https://doesit4by3.neocities.org/
Sometimes when I have free time and feel motivated (lol) I will write a few thousand words on tech and tech-adjacent subjects. You can read my work here: https://read-only.net/
All other relevant things I've shared on the web can be found on various parts of my website: https://rootcompute.neocities.org/
Glad to have found somewhere to land on my feet and I hope I'll be able to call c.im home on the fediverse for many years to come!
#FediHood now has a better composer. You can post three types: messages with topics, events and communities.
There is also a bot that can put anyone from the #Fediverse on the map (a remote filter is available). More about how to appear: https://fedihood.social/locator
This affects the Fediverse.
This affects the Internet.
This is the equivalent of the "rubber hose method" of decryption.
All technical solutions (read: all technology) is subject to politics. To political power. To political interactions.
You cannot rely on purely technical approaches. You have to have social approaches, too. Like. Actual policy and procedure geared around social and political group dynamics.
Like. How will we react when the US Govt requires that @jerry to shut off infosec.exchange servers.
Or how we'll react when a specific Mastodon server is declared part of a terrorist infrastructure. Will federating with it mean any other Mastodon server is now part of the officially designated terrorist network (what then of people that federate with a server that federates with a server that is classified as part of a terrorist network. And so on)
You cannot carry the conceit that tech alone or a purely technical approach will save you.
The EFF is promoting the Fediverse in an online event next week!
We've put it on our community calendar: https://fediforum.org/events

Want to help #mastodon and the #fediverse flourish? Here’s a few tags you should always boost:
Dear #Fediverse and #Mastodon admins
currently there is a massive wave of spam registrations everywhere in the fediverse.
For mastodon, I have a solution that works for me:
Create new file /etc/nginx/conf.d/lsbt-registration-spam.conf:
map "$request_method:$uri:$http_user_agent" $block_lsbt_registration_spam {
default 0;
~^POST:/api/v1/accounts:Python/3\.[0-9]+\ aiohttp/ 1;
}
Add to the server block in /etc/nginx/sites-available/mastodon:
location = /api/v1/accounts {
if ($block_lsbt_registration_spam) {
return 403;
}
try_files $uri @proxy;
}

#Fedle received several fixes.
- Spanish now treats Ñ as its own letter, and its dictionary has been improved.
- It also fixes federation issues for #Misskey and #Sharkey.
- Announcements and results now have a dedicated tag per language, like #Fedle_es, #Fedle_en etc.
#Fedle is a daily word game on the #Fediverse.

I found some active accounts from organisations but it seems to be harder to find accounts representing persons.
Can you recommend me any accounts from Switzerland or accounts focussing on AI? :)
