I've written a bit of an extensive guide on navigating ActivityPub and its many apps, and instances, along with some initial questions new users might have, and links to mobile apps.
Genocide apologist are safe and welcome at #mastodon dot social. This person has dedicated their time to harass, lie and libel the @palestine They keep spreading proven lies as the "beheaded babies" and "mass rapes" (there's zero evidence of either), yet Mastodon dot social mods don't do anything about this obvious troll, while they ban pro-Palestine accounts.
@trankten No se que podemos hacer ante eso, pero espero que si es cierto que se ha vendido a Meta le espero que le pase lo mismo que "hizo" el con #GNUsocial cuando dejo Ostatus y puso ActivityPub. El #fediverse como bien sabes es muy grande.
Dobrym podejściem są też web-aplikacje starające się integrować wiele profili z różnych serwisów. Np. #Phanpy, który ostatnio integruje #Mastodon i #Pixelfed (jego Media-firt UI jest świetne).
Innym tematem jest uparte trzymanie się przez Mastodona obsługi jedynie typu Note (i ułomne wyświetlanie Article). A ponieważ Mastodon dominuje w #Fedi, nie rozwija się (tak jak mogłoby) wsparcie dla innych typów treści #ActivityPub: image, video, audio, artist, album, track, playlist. De facto obrazki czy filmiki albo audio to po prostu załączniki do typu Note, bo Masto tak ma i nic innego nie wyświetli :/
Więc IMO pole do rozwoju jest ogromne, nie trzymajmy się kurczowo jednego konta (to wymysł marketingowców budujących silosy), zostańmy przy jeden login do wielu usług, jeśli już musimy ;)
I've implemented basic support for meta groups (groups of groups). There's a lot of redundancy because of the federated nature of the azoriverse, with similar groups duplicated across multiple servers. Meta groups are a solution, by presenting users with a (somewhat transparent) single group that collects all of the posts....
If you haven't heard, sadly, #ChirpSocial, one of the popular #ActivityPub “groups” platform, is shutting down “probably” on February 29th.
In an email they sent to admins, the owner and developer can no longer support https://chirp.social financially as they failed to find a new job after they were laid off by #Google last year.
This reminds us the importance of having a built-in groups feature, and one where the groups feature actually federates.
Back in 2008, when the #Fediverse was born, we did have a built-in federated groups in #Laconica / #StatusNet (today known as #GNUsocial). We used bang (!) instead of at (@). A built-in groups feature is more stable as established instances can host them.
Today, we have #Friendica and #Hubzilla (as well as #Streams-based instances) to fill in that, as groups is a built-in feature in those software products. It's just a matter of finding an instance that's open to hosting groups for any topic for the ActivityPub protocol.
That said, any Friendica, Hubzilla, Streams-based instances you suggest for groups?
FF really doesn't respect ppls donations. They are Goo-funded. Scamazon and Cloud(G)lare work through them too. A few years ago Mozilla snubbed bitcoin donations. Their priorities are clear.
Projects that seem to respect ppl and/or seem to need support/volunteers, include #I2P, #gNUSocial, FSF, #Parabola (gnulinux), #libreboot.at, ForgeFed, #OpenWRT, DeCloudflare.
looks like I lost my #GNUsocial testing account @wakest because I hadn't logged in in a year. I cant imagine this really saves much storage, it should only be a few Kb at most as I don't think I had even posted any photos on the account...
There's a lot of focus on #journalist#Xitter to #Mastodon migration, but the overall story is quite a bit bigger I think.
The #Fediverse offers huge opportunity for independent journalism in a world where so much of #news media are consolidated and in the hands of shady mogul billionaires. In other words Fediverse is both a threat to existing business models, as well as market opportunity.
@smallcircles
To be fair, we get a sense that many instances are operated by those who are invested in highly questionable endeavours, which make them function similarly to a large corporation.
One of the goals of Fediverse proponents like us is to make setting up secure instances fairly easy, and not too burdensome. We think #Mastodon isn't able to provide such, but with #BloatFE and no javascript, maybe it can.
My #Fediverse viewer now supports any server type (as long as the server's APIs are correctly configured)!
Find out if a server is right for you based on custom emojis, character limit, users, translation, and more.
In the beginning, there was Laconica, which later became known as StatusNet. A massive amount of the work that went into this is due to Evan Prodromou ( @evan ) , who is now spearheading an effort to standardize work on a communication protocol with the W3C Social Working Group.As a networking project, it was the first public implementation of the communication protocol known as OpenMicroBlogging, which later evolved into the OStatus protocol. These technologies provided a significant building block for future federated networking projects to study and reference.
In terms of how StatusNet was used, it resembled an early version of Twitter, with the added benefit of group functionality. What made it unique is that users on one Laconica server could communicate with users on completely different servers.
@isaakubus Creo que se puede quitar en configuracion.
AndStatus la usaba para #GNUsocial antes de nacer #mastodon.
Twidere tambien, pero la que mas que gusta es fedilab para moviles hoy por hoy para mis cuentas.
Aside from an error complaining that vendor/autoload.php is missing, I was getting this logging constantly when running docker compose up:
gnu-social-worker-1 | Fatal error: Uncaught LogicException: You need to add "symfony/framework-bundle" as a Composer dependency. in /var/www/social/bin/console:18
gnu-social-worker-1 | Stack trace:
gnu-social-worker-1 | #0 {main}

At this point, #GNUSocial still doesn't run correctly because no tables were created in the database. I haven't found any installation scripts for this version of it, either. #fediverse#mastodon
@mj
Ich war viele Jahre komplett ohne Social Media. Vor vielen Jahren hatte ich einen Facebook Account. Den habe ich irgendwann gelöscht weil der FB Algorithmus es schafft das schlechteste in mir zum Vorschein zu bringen. Vor einiger Zeit dann zu Twitter. Sobald klar war dass Musk übernimmt habe ich das Konto zur Löschung eingestellt. Seitdem Mastodon.
@PabloBzz Yo en esta red no, en #GNUsocial entre con windows y gracias a el #fediverse conocí #GNUlinux y me tire de cabeza sin saber apenas nada, esta red me hizo cambiar a GNUlinux y desde entonces no tengo de llamar a mi compa informatico para que me arregle mierdas del puto win, desde entonces he intalado unas 10 distros diferentes, #Debian me enamoro y ya no la suelto por eso.
so. das archiv ist gezippt. frau frohmann schrieb neulich, dass das radikalste aktuell meist sei, etwas nicht mehr zu tun. und das ist deeper, als einiges, was ich in letzter zeit gelesen habe.
