RE: https://hachyderm.io/@baileytownsend/116952597706316959

I want to follow this up with an AMAA (ask me anything #atproto!)
I've done a few of these on #bluesky and thought it might be fun to do one here! I don't believe in dumb questions, so please ask me any you may have! Happy to answer anything, or at least hopefully point you in the right direction! Feel free to reply your questions to this post.

Also feel free to even ask me stuff like "Is atproto really #decentralized", "Aren't relays/PDS expensive?", "What do migrations look like there?", etc. Nothing is off the table, and I'd be glad to answer anything! Good chance I will have questions in the future about #activitypub and #mastodon that I will be asking!

Following the success (sarcasm!) of my previous post "Battle of IMs", I decided it's time to write another post where I try to articulate in a technical but snarky way my view on the wonderful world of social media, and which one is best among the mainstream and non-mainstream ones. This is a long post, reviewing 14 different "socials".

Started the first iteration of #snac (#snac2) customizing to match #manpageblog. It took a bite more time than initially expected but @grunfink indeed made some great and clever ideas when creating snac. The function for attributes and tags in his C functions are a great idea and simplify it. I guess, I simply had added them statically... However, a preview is available right here (as said, still not perfect, more to be done soon):

On Mastodon web, is there a way to follow hashtags without them showing on the Home column?

EDIT: maybe with RSS? can we get a feed for a hashtag?

(It really messes with my brain, Home is for my mutuals, everything else should go on lists or... IDK, not on Home)

Now that I finally feel comfortable on #mastodon, and have a general idea of what I want to post, I think it's time for my first #introduction!

I'm tpaau, a #Polish guy with #autism. I'm interested in #cybersecurity, #privacy, the #ScpFoundation, #airsoft, and #cats. I will post mainly about my interests, projects I'm working on, and related stuff.

On my #GooglePixel 7 I use #GrapheneOS, and my #ThinkPad T480 runs #secureblue with my custom #desktopshell (https://github.com/tpaau/dots).

#HolosSocial is different from any other software, not only because your device runs the #ActivityPub server, but mostly because it took every spec from other software and can speak with them.
On #Mastodon, a #PeerTube post becomes a mere link. On Holos, the app reads the AP message and shows the video. Why? Most software ignores AP signals that do not match its own model, where Holos does not.
That is why switching from a blogging view to an image view with a simple tap is possible in the app.

Voci di donne su Mastodon

La presenza femminile su Mastodon è ancora limitata e spesso meno visibile di quanto meriterebbe. Questo starter pack nasce per contrastare quello squilibrio e dare più spazio, voce e rilievo alle donne nel Fediverso:

I learned that the default #mastodon collection limit is 10 and that as admin you can change it by editing roles.

Pleased to announce that my book, Move Slowly and Build Bridges: Mastodon, the Fediverse, and the Struggle for Democratic Social Media, is now available online, and will be out in print in a couple weeks!

That site has more stuff, too -- links to related articles, some notes about how I researched it, and a contact form in case you want to talk about the fediverse with me! (I'd be happy to chat with journalists about it!)

After 6 months of coding and refining, I’m thrilled to launch Crowfi! 🚀

I wanted to build a Mastodon client for iOS that feels fast, looks clean, and respects the way we use the Fediverse.

🍎 Get it on the App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/crowfi/id6756513753

Please Boost to help me reach the community! 🔄

I’d love to hear your feedback as I keep building. ✨

#Crowfi #Mastodon #IndieDev #BuildInPublic #iOSDev

hey #fediverse people using #mastodon on underpowered machines, what is your client of choice?

I'm on a #SurfaceGo with a Pentium Gold running #Fedora with #KDE and think that maybe someone here has a recommendation for something more lightweight than the default web client.

Hey everyone,

@casey and @rania40 had the honour of speaking to two families from Gaza today and we’d like to welcome them to Gaza Verified.

They are:

• Sireen Mohammed (@sireen123)
• Saeed Mahmoud (@saeed200)

Please give them a warm welcome to Mastodon and to the fediverse, follow their accounts, and donate to their fundraisers if you can (and please share this so others can do the same).

Also, remember that you can find all our families who have fundraisers listed at the following page, ordered by those who have received the least in donations over the last week (on a rolling basis):

https://gaza-verified.org/donate/

Thank you for making Mastodon and the fediverse a safe space for our friends in Gaza and for your support.

💕

We added our Vivaldi Social server to the Fediverse on November 15th 2022. We are still, I believe, the only browser company that is fully behind the Fediverse. It is something we are very proud of! The Fediverse is the natural alternative to Big Tech social media, just like, IMHO, Vivaldi is the natural alternative to Big Tech browsers.

Wondering if this is a #QuotePost sighting, a real one, in the wild...

Seen a couple of them, last few days

Supposedly no #Mastodon instance is live yet to be able to create Quote Posts -- needs to be an instance > v4.5.*

If we fixed the diversity problem on #Mastodon, why aren't we incorporating these folks in the concentrations of power that exist in the #fediverse? Or do these power structures not exist either?
