Slowly moving to @symfonystation over the course of 2024 so please follow me there as well. Reuben Walker, Publisher of Symfony Station. Good content creator/admin. Decent designer/frontend developer. Half-ass backend programmer but improving. Will post about PHP and its Symfony Framework.

I'm honestly considering a paid verification program in Pixelfed to help sustain the project long term.

It would be a centralized list, and would be present in clients, regardless of server.

A blue checkmark would not only help our project financially, but would also provide a trusted visual mark of verification.

Thoughts?

@dansup I'd say if the purpose of verification is trust, it should not be a paid feature. Otherwise it's only possible for people/orgs with enough money.

I can imagine other forms of monetization. More branding/customization features for instance. Or a special "I donated" badge. A "donaters" page where your name is listed. Things like that?

@dansup I believe a better option would be premium hosting. Basically allow users of to host content under their own domain, & you could throw in the checkmark as a bonus. 😉

Similar to how @matt provides premium hosting to via Write.as & @photomatt provides premium hosting via WP.com (are there any other examples‽).

It would benefit the community plus encourage other hosts to take a second look at Pixelfed.

This is going to help scammers a lot. Imagine getting a call from your loved ones, and they explain they are in trouble and need immediate financial assistance. This is going to affect so many elderly and innocent people. OpenAI is developing these tools again from publicly scrapping of your voice samples.

I know the next 3-7 days will be filled with exaggeration and doomsday talk, but IMHO the #xz backdoor, though seemingly meticulously planned for a long time, failed miserably as it was caught at a stage where it wasn't widely deployed but only in testing/prerelease distros. Yes, it made it quite far in the supply chain but it ultimately failed. The mess is being cleaned up, no cases of actual use of the exploit in the wild are known thus far. The immune system of FOSS has worked. Again.

Server indexes of places for newcomers to join can be instrumental for #Fediverse adoption. However, sudden rule changes can leave some admins feeling pressure to change policies and remain listed.

Git is the base tool for us developers, but it’s not user-friendly. Frankly, to this day, I'm sometimes scared using it in the console. I might be a noob, or I might be too lazy to learn it, but I think that's just not accessible. For instance, I was really scared to do interactive rebases in the console or even resolve merge conflicts without the UI tool. But now, happy end! I'm not scared anymore.

I’d like to give big KUDOS to LazyGit: https://github.com/jesseduffield/lazygit

Lullabot Podcast: Just Say Drupal ‽

#Drupal's identity is very nuanced, from its rich history to its future potential. We discuss why at least one member of the community says just saying "Drupal" is important when discussing current versions of Drupal and the community that drives it.

Is specifically calling out "Drupal 10.2" or or "Drupal 11" useful, or just confusing to outsiders?

TL;DR #XZ has been backdoored in 5.6.0 and 5.6.1. While Fedora Rawhide and Fedora 41 packages are affected, Red Hat Enterprise Linux is NOT affected. Updates (well, technically downgrades to 5.4.x) for Fedora are being made available through the regular update channels. Our Security Alert explains more details. https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/urgent-security-alert-fedora-41-and-rawhide-users

Check if your machine is affected: run xz --version and see if it returns 5.6.0 or 5.6.1. If it shows a lower version, you are safe, as far as we can see now.

You will read quite some clickbait inspired "OMG! THIS IS THE WORSEST THING! EVER! OPEN SOURCE IS DOOMED!" style takes, but in my IMHO the exact opposite is true. Being Open Source forces us to be vigilant, coordinated and fast as everything that is wrong WILL happen under the public spotlight. And we reacted fast. Updates are available, the problem is explained and communicated in full detail. I tip my hat to all the folks involved!

Spare a positive thought for all maintainers spending easter holidays on checking those gazillions of docker images out there to see if they have been infected with the #xz backdoor.

A tech company hiring McKinsey tells you two things.

  1. They are going to do layoffs.

  2. Management is so incompetent that they need to hire someone to tell them to do layoffs
