What does a Discord replacement look like, and how might the open social web play a part?
@laurenshof
looks at what needs to happen — different apps built on the same protocols, active collaboration to make sure it all fits together — and how that's already fundamental to the Atmosphere and fediverse.

After quite some time, I’m finally ready to share this.
MastoBlaster is now available in public testing on TestFlight.
It is a lightweight, privacy-first Fediverse client for iOS, built around a simple idea: fast, small, predictable behavior, and first-class support for snac.
What makes it different:
• snac-first by design, not "compatible by accident"
• Works with all Mastodon API compatible software, including Mastodon, snac, GoToSocial, Akkoma, and others
• EXIF stripping on upload (HDR and orientation preserved)
• Optional on-device alt text generation via Apple Intelligence for your uploads and for images in your timeline
• Markdown posting for snac
• Granular notifications, grouping, multi-account
• Blocking and moderation tools
• Very small footprint, very low RAM usage
Alt text generation happens entirely on device via Apple APIs on supported hardware. Nothing is sent to external services.
It is built around my own workflow and priorities. It may not be for everyone, and that is perfectly fine.
Important note:
MastoBlaster will always be free for BSD Cafe users, illumos Cafe users, and for anyone connecting to a snac instance, including self-hosted ones.
The app is already usable, but this is still a test phase. I am looking for feedback, bug reports, and real-world usage insights.

Stay tuned.

Racism By Omission 🧵 1/3
"Similarly, while omissions are often the result of inaction, the articles in this special issue show how the racism of omission is created purposefully and through neglect—by individuals, organizations, and structures of society, and that the sociological study of racism itself has also omitted conceptualizing liberation adequately. "

Hi! I'm Ivan.
This is my self-hosted instance on #Mastodon, fueled by caffeine and stubbornness.
I'm a #music producer with a strong passion for #photography — musicwise I bend towards #EDM, while photography stretches from drone/aerial to architecture and basic still/everyday life.
Big believer in #privacy, digital independence and owning your own space online, powered by #FOSS and #Linux.

@Mastodon is changing course when it comes to how people join the platform. In late 2022, the team decided to send sign-ups directly to their server in order to make onboarding more straightforward. But that didn't align with the promise of decentralization. Here, Community Director @haubles explains the new approach to server recommendation, along with some other ways Mastodon is helping build community.

As Mastodon celebrates its 10-year anniversary in 2026, the open source platform’s new Executive Director, @mellifluousbox, is focused on what it’ll take to make the next 10 years even more impactful. He and @mike spoke for the Dot Social podcast about the power of building at the protocol level, governments' use of Mastodon, and the Forkiverse.
After doing a couple of private workshops on how to use #Mastodon, I've decided I could just record a series of tutorials and have everyone benefit from it. Mastodon has a lot of features, and sometimes even long time users aren't aware of all of them! The first episode is about making posts on Mastodon--going over every aspect.
Hey beta testers! @crowfi TestFlight v0.22 is here! 🎉
What to test:
- Restores home timeline from last read position when the app reopens.

I am surprised that nearly 60% of the people who have answered this poll thus far would consider using EuroSky:

There are not many votes yet, but perhaps the view that the Fediverse is the only option is shared more by tech-savvy folks.
