Troubleshooting a broken cluster, I don't really like this setup and I'm about as stuck as the cluster is... argh..

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.

Hmm upgrading Firefish on calckey.world takes a bit longer than expected :-) Maybe next time read the release notes beforehand ;-)

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

I've been using the Phanpy web-interface for Mastodon for a while now, and I really like it.

You can go to https://phanpy.social/ and sign in with your Mastodon account. It has a nice layout, multi-column view, and a new feature: Catch-up.

It's also very nice to use on mobile (as PWA).
And I also tested with and so far seems to work as well.

Follow the app's account here: @phanpy

This is the catch-up page for the last 8 hours for me, you can filter and group as you wish.
For catch-up you can select the timerange you want to catch up to

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... 📊 )

Ooh just saw they're building a V4 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)

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...

Nice, we upgraded https://lemmy.world to 0.19.3 finally. Seems to all have worked nicely, no issues so far. I don't like the yellow/brown color of new comments in the default frontend, but luckily I prefer the Photon frontend which doesn't have that (https://p.lemmy.world)

There's some unrest because the Open Collective Foundation is stopping.

Don't worry, we use Open Collective Europe as a donations platform, they're going nowhere.

We've added some donation platforms, so if you would like to support us running our .world servers, you can do so here:
https://ko-fi.com/fhfworld
https://bunq.me/fhf
https://patreon.com/mastodonworld
https://opencollective.com/mastodonworld

Thank you!

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

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

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.

I have been asked if donations in crypto can be made to support mastodon.world / lemmy.world.
That's not a problem, but I prefer not to use Bitcoin, as that's bad for the environment with it's proof-of-work mechanism.

If you want to donate crypto, please use other crypto that don't use POW.

This is our ADA wallet address: addr1v9qv6xvfwcx9ny56uag4umu6238sw2e7ff2kcxl3qe7p9esayjxgu

Please use that for Cardano donations (ADA on Cardano network only)

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.

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

Apparently firefish.social is gone.

Those that want to move to something similar (which won't be gone without notice...) , you're welcome to join https://sharkey.world !

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 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.

@MonaApp Are you planning on supporting *key instances like misskey/sharkey etc?
On my Sharkey I see that I can read posts but other functions like following, notifications etc don't work.
