mastodon

Just noticed that #SFBA is running #Mastodon v4.3.4

Thanks @seb and @Moritz

Strong work!

And it is done 🎉
(although still not that pretty 🙈):

Here is the always up-to-date sheet with more than 1000 official accounts by media organizations that you can follow from #Mastodon & everywhere else in the #Fediverse.

➡️ https://fingolas.eu/fediverse/overview.html

There is a powerful custom search (top left) and a button to download an CSV with the handles of all visible accounts, that you can import. There's also the language, the country of origin and a direct link.

#Mastodon has had a nice little uptick in sign-ups and activity from #Taiwan after a facebook post recommending it as an alternative to facebook and Instagram for Taiwanese users went viral on facebook, bringing in about 20K new users over the span of two days to mastodon.social, g0v.social, m.cmx.im and a few more.

I still have #Bluesky (and #Threads) filtered out of my feeds

That said, I've been opening the filtered posts through "Show anyway" and I keep reading to see what the current thinking is

What no one seems to ever mention to the #BlueskyCurious is that Bluesky is Just Another Web Site

Find a valid URL and open it in a web browser and wander around and see if --> you <-- can find whatever is missing from your life here on #Mastodon

I have, twice, for about 45 minutes on two different days

Bluesky is bland, boring, and just like early #Twitter

Here. Have a go. Wander around. You can't Reply or Like, but you can go anywhere you want

See if --> you <-- can find what's missing in your little life

Telegram 原文

https://masto.es ha sido actualizado a #Mastodon 4.3.5, versión con las siguientes correcciones:

- Errores de procesamiento para algunas imágenes HEIF en iOS 18.
- El servidor de streaming no filtraba las publicaciones en idiomas desconocidos de las líneas de tiempo públicas.
- Las tarjetas de vista previa debajo de las advertencias de contenido no se mostraban en los detalles de la publicación.

I hereby pledge to do a much better job of boosting posts from the #Mastodon instance I own, Podvibes.co.

It’s a small server—which is fine by me and my pocketbook—ostensibly for #AudioFiction creators, though anyone can join* and post whatever they want**.

Right now, it’s dominated by me (duh) and two audio fiction directories, and my posts are about many different things.

So I figure boosting more from my personal account will help others, yeah? Yeah.

** - see above

Could be a coincidence …
- #iOS updated to v18.4
- #Mastodon to v4.3.7
- before both, have started using “Lockdown Mode”
- using Mastodon web client in (regularly updated) Firefox/iOS

… anyway …

In last 2-3 days am seeing not-logged-in page after leaving Firefox application. Then only after trying different URLs (with(out) “/home”) & reloading few times do I get the expected HOME.

I’m proud to be joining @Mastodon’s Board of Directors to guide and support this important platform.

I believe that #Mastodon and the #Fediverse represent some of the most important advancements in social networking design and technology. They have the potential to reverse the harms wrought by the monolithic social media platforms of yesterday.

But even more than that, Mastodon and the Fediverse can be so much more than what we are against. We have so much potential. I believe in all of our power to build and change the world. We start by building and convening in healthier online communities because we are strength together is far more than the sum of our differences. I believe in building technologies that help bring out the best in humanity; I believe in the amazing things we can do and be when we work together.

I love Mastodon. I love what we are and what we will be. Now let’s build a better world together 💞

大家好，#Fread 现在已经决定开源了，欢迎大家查看代码提交 PR。

Fread 经历了两年多的开发，从开始到现在一直免费使用，之前由于没考虑好到底是付费下载还是免费所以闭源，仓库里也有很多敏感数据一直没法开源，现在主要功能都开发的差不多了，也是时候开源出来了。

虽然这种项目大部分都是业务代码，但是 Fread 还是有些独特之处的，首先使用的是 Kotlin Multiplatform 和 Compose Multiplatform 做跨平台，目前像 Fread 这么复杂的产品使用这样技术栈的其实很少，并且这是比较新的技术，这点 Fread 有很多参考意义。
另外 Fread 因为要兼容多个社交平台以及混合 Feeds，所以架构设计上下了点功夫，目前可以从架构上兼容这些短博客协议。

总之，虽然确实希望通过 Fread 赚钱，但我更希望自己开发了这么久的 App 有更多的人使用和喜欢。
