Setting up a #Lemmy instance. Still trying to figure out how it works, federation seems not to work for now.

But for those who would like a #Reddit replacement in the Fediverse, you can give it a try:

Those wanting to try out an alternative to Mastodon, you're welcome to create an account on https://sharkey.world. #Sharkey has a very different layout, but most of the same features as Mastodon, and many features Mastodon hasn't. Just see for yourself, and it's fine to either use it as a second account, or you can decide to migrate your current account to it, if you really like it.

For my business mail I am still using Google.. was planning on migrating off that, someday.

Now I got an e-mail notifying me of a 54% price increase for Google Workspace.
Immediately got myself a @protonmail subscription and will be migrating today...

@StillIRise1963 First of all I apologize for this.
It seems that the moderation action was taken without proper checking or understanding the context.
We want .world and Mastodon in general to be a safe place where there's no room for racism. If there's anything you see that should be improved on our instance please let me know directly.

I was looking for a 10th Fediverse instance to run, and I didn't have a Calckey instance yet.

So now I installed https://calckey.world 😎

Next steps: configure the thing and schedule backups.

Who will be my first user?

(So now I run 3 #mastodon, 2 #akkoma, a #misskey, a #calckey, a #pixelfed, a #peertube and a #writefreely instance!)

After 15 years of using an iPhone, I'm considering switching to Android. I've ordered a cheap Samsung just to try it for a while before buying a top-end model.
Let's see if I can get used to it.

(I'm also a Mac user so there will be some trade-offs..)

I really like the Busycal iOS app, does anyone know a good #Android alternative? It syncs with my calendar & tasks on Nextcloud.

Turning 50 today. We are spending a long weekend in the south of France to celebrate, my wife, kids and I. Best birthday I could wish for.

I get spammed by a company (won't say which one, because it's SUSE).. so I click the 'unsubscribe link'.

Which then asks me to log in, or if I don't have an account, create one...

No, thank you. I don't want an account. I want to unsubscribe from your unsolicited e-mails.

Anyway, how's your morning going?

Meeting up with @stux and @paul today. Tooting IRL.

#FediMeetup

I'm 9 followers short of being in the Top 10 most followed accounts on mastodon.world :mw: 🙂

I mean.. not that it's a race... 🏁

(I like statistics... 📊 )

Reddit blackout is starting: https://reddark.untone.uk/

I see registrations going up on our #Lemmy server https://lemmy.world. I've upgraded the server specs.

In it's 11 days already climbed to be the 4th Lemmy server.. https://fedidb.org/software/lemmy

I'll keep an eye on it..

@zef Just installed SilverBullet, I think it's very cool. Now to find a use for it :-)

Mastodon.world :mw: was updated to Mastodon v4.2.8. Release notes: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/releases/tag/v4.2.8

ruud, 11 months ago to fediverse

I see users complaining that the #Jerboa app for #Lemmy doesn't work for older versions of Lemmy. Which is correct.

But please be aware that there's a (quickly growing!) amount of other apps you can use. See here for an overview: https://lemmy.world/post/465785

Added all platforms we host to our non-profit foundations website, but the list is too long so now we need to change the background image :-) The website is a work-in-progress anyway.

Wanna see what we're hosting? Check https://fedihosting.foundation

Setting up a Pixelfed instance... the cat having the honour or being the first picture posted on it :-) https://photofed.world/i/web/post/666227742683938817

So I checked the availability of the .world domain for the new name for #Calckey. Of course, it's taken.
So, what would you think I should do?
(Note: if I would create a new instance, calckey.world will remain as long as there are active users.)

ruud, 1 year ago to random

@dansup On fotofed.nl I see it's still awaiting submission for the directory. Is there something I've missed?

ruud, 1 year ago to random Dutch

I thought the #WWDC23 keynote was kinda boring, I thought the best announcement was the profiles in Safari. And then they had ‘ one more thing’ …. And now I want that Vision Pro!!!! Awesome. This can change the way I work completely.

Mastodon.world :mw: was updated to Mastodon v4.2.6 : https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/releases/tag/v4.2.6

ruud, 3 months ago to Pixelfed

I have setup a #Pixelfed instance: https://photofed.world

What is @pixelfed ?It's a federated photo sharing platform, like an alternative to #instagram

The instance is now open for registrations, but note that I'm still finalising the configuration and tuning. Please do let me know when you experience issues.

Ooh just saw they're building a V4 #Tesla supercharger at the McDo just around the corner..
I normally charge at home (solar power) but sometimes I forget or need to quickly charge so this is really convenient.

(FYI, in NL all EVs can charge at a Tesla supercharger)

ruud, 4 months ago to random

Mastodon as well as Sharkey released a security fix... so I gotta update 6 Mastodon instances and 2 Sharkey...

ruud, 4 months ago to random

The https://sharkey.world server is almost done. We now need branding (new theme and images). @vsp will be creating images like he did for :mw: (and others).

While it grows we will also do some tuning and tweaking.

I like the #sharkey interface, so much even that I installed it on my personal server too (ruud.social)

If you want to try it, just create an account and play around with it.

And if you really like it, you can migrate so you keep your followers.
