stefan, to fediverse

I know some fediverse apps use various text/image detection technologies, so I was curious if this encourages the use of alt text.

The main thing I learned: Out of nearly 30,000 fediverse posts I looked at, almost 80% did not have information about the client app.

That was a bit surprising. And it makes doing this sort of analysis difficult.

@stefan
Having a specific feature for suggesting alt text on the fediverse would be helpful while avoiding the new users experiencing alt text nag negatively.

I.e. "This user suggests the following alt text for your image: Text. Accept, deny."

Clicking accept automatically edits your post and inserts what they wrote. If it already has an alt text you never get any notification.

@jupiter_rowland
Yeah it would be tricky. I guess the best would be if Mastodon implements it I their API and then other developers follow suit.

    Fellow Mastodonians ...

    Do any of you do video editing ... perhaps for a podcast or maybe personal home videos? If so, what is the best, most easily used video editing software out there?

    I don't need all the bells & whistles, but will need features like splicing video segments (from diff't sources) together, some nice (not over the top) transitions, ease of use, & good quality end results.

    Thanks for any suggestions you might have.

    cragsand,
    @cragsand@mastodon.social avatar

    @carolynporco I've tried a lot of free video editing software but I always find myself coming back to .

    Using effects can be a bit tricky to figure out at first but just for basic transitions and editing in multiple track layers it does the job well.

    Sometimes it crashes when you zoom to quickly from the timeline but saving with CONTROL+S is instant and restarting the same. https://www.shotcut.org/

    cragsand, (edited )
    @cragsand@mastodon.social avatar

    @carolynporco Yes, you can drag and drop a clip into the timeline, split it in the middle, separate the two parts and drag in another clip in the middle.

    If you drag the beginning of one clip over the end of the other clip, it will create a transition.

    To show one clip on top of another, create a new track, and drag that clip on that track.

    Here's a tutorial video showing how to use the timeline: https://youtu.be/PCMcyYAtRzw?t=10m
    Best of luck!

    @dbrgn Amazing photos! The current solar storm is giving these amazing Auroras pretty far south. It's late at night here in southern Sweden and unfortunately very overcast and cloudy so no luck for me at this time. 😊

    From my favorite is Ireland's entry.
    Such an amazing choreography for the whole performance with a pagan theme.
    There's influences from Black metal and Death metal here so the only thing I felt was missing from the performance was the electric guitar.

    So I just tried opting into (https://brid.gy/mastodon/@atomicpoet@atomicpoet.org).

    I found it confusing. For one thing, it asks me for my Mastodon account. Though Akkoma uses Mastodon’s API, not all sites recognize this nor support it—I don’t know if BridgyFed would reject.

    Secondly, it’s not clear how to opt in. I think I opted in but there was nothing to say “Congrats! People from can see you!”

    Also, how do I receive posts? That’s not apparent to me.

    @fediversenews

    cragsand,
    @cragsand@mastodon.social avatar

    @atomicpoet @fediversenews

    To enable and opt-in you follow this account: @bsky.brid.gy@bsky.brid.gy
    That will start mirroring and federate your ActivityPub account over the ATProtocol and assign a DID.

    Then the counterpart for BlueSky you follow:
    https://bsky.app/profile/ap.brid.gy
    And it will start mirroring your ATProtocol account as an ActivityPub account.

    AT to AP seems more seamless since AP has more features. Truncating long posts for example looks ugly. The plan is to thread them eventually.

    @giant_awake @mike Early beta so expect it to be slow and break.

    It's running pretty slow from testing and took several hours before my first posts showed up so following and then unfollowing without waiting probably won't work.

    You can compare the timestamps of my posts for example:

    Then again, the outcome of breaking something wouldn't be anywhere as fatal as with an aircraft... :AngeryCat:

    Using to see my Bluesky account in to boost fed.bird.gy () allowing me to see posts on , and vice versa. If I post something on Mastodon will it appear on Bluesky, and so appear on Mastodon, and so forth, in a mirror of infinite recursion?

    "Miljöpartiet hade fel tills de inte hade fel längre."

    Med natriumbatterier (sodium/salt) som når 160Wh/kg och solceller som närmar sig 30% effektivitet känns kärnkraft otroligt ineffektivt, dyrt och förlegat.

    Förnybar energi har hunnit ikapp och vi måste acceptera den verkligheten med smartare investeringar och subventioner.

    Intresset för ödrift av solcellsanläggningar ökar och ett smart elnät är rätt väg. Det ger redundans, självständighet och säkerhet vid kris.
