Few days off-grids, and what you get once you're back online is a #FediDrama with people still trying to gaslight hundreds of users that found refuge here from big platforms with "#Meta is not necessarily evil" without any critical reflection on how FB, IG, and WhatsApp are in decline bc of the shitty shittier & shittiest decisions made by their CEO and his board. #FediAdmins should take responsibility for their actions and yes, even face backfire when trying to gaslight their users
@tchambers With all due respect, why do you hope "all #fediadmins to consider taking this same policy"? It's not up to any one individual admin to tell all fediadmins what they should do or consider. Diversity is the point.
To other #mastoadmins and #fediadmins -> We seeing these sorts of spam accounts trying (unsuccessfully) to register at our server, and not even trying to answer our "why do you want to join question" well. So all nuked before they get to in.
But keep a lookout for accounts like these trying elsewhere.
Esp if you don't have screening questions, and accounts can be created instantly.
Hi Fediverse admins / devs! I've got a question about instance software.
Up until now, I've been running a fork of glitch-soc that has served me well. Unfortunately, however, I'm starting to run up against some of Mastodon's limitations and the effort to maintain my own fork is just too much. (seriously, fuck Rails and especially Webpacker :blobfoxangry:) I'd like to switch instance software to something with more features out-of-the-box. I'm considering Calckey, but I don't have any experience with it or any other Misskey derivative. The feature set looks great on paper but I'd like to hear from someone who has actually run it (or at least seriously evaluated the software). I'd greatly appreciate any and all input! I'm especially curious about these questions:
The "Fediverse Software Comparison" table has a few mistakes in the Mastodon and glitch-soc columns. They're minor, but it makes me wonder if that table is really trustworthy? The table is based on personal knowledge
We are excited to announce that we have increased the storage limit per user to 50 GB! This means you now have even more space to upload and share your photos with the world.
If utilized fully it would cost us approx 0.55$ per month (per user).
We believe that this upgrade will greatly enhance your Pixelfed experience, and we can't wait to see all the amazing photos you will share with the world.
Thank you for being a part of the Pixelfed community and the great Fediverse !
