#Fediverse #Mastodon

I was on a #mastodon instance for a while, hosted by a tech Youtuber. When that instance shut down, I moved to another independently hosted mastodon instance, then decided to self-host a Pleroma (alternative to mastodon) server and have been on that ever since (a couple years).

#selfhost

Did you ever have one of these in your home?
Today's kids simply don't understand The Struggle.

I remember memorizing all my friends' phone numbers, and when I tried to call a girl, I had to speak to their Dad first because he always answered the phone.

Mittlerweile gibt es so viele Journalisten im #Fediverse, dass ich mich echt frage, weshalb nicht viel mehr darüber geschrieben wird in den grossen Medien. Nein, alles was gross publiziert wird sind #fckTrump, #fckBigTech, #fckAI etc.

Wenn sich die Journis hier mal zusammentun würden und mal organisiert über längere Zeit über das Fediverse schreiben würden, sähe es bzgl. Anzahl Nutzer:innen hier vermutlich ganz anders aus.

@scottjenson Shame on you for invoking "Black Twitter." AI People want their crap to go viral. Black Twitter wanted a community free of bigotry. Delete your account. Comparing "AI People" to other marginal communities by a "Product Strategy Advisor to #Mastodon Core team"... SMDH

Apparently, the "Product Strategy Advisor to #Mastodon Core team" doesn't understand its userbase, Mastodon's nor the fediverse. It's always been about personal choice.

FWIW, nothing is stopping "AI People" from joining Mastodon nor the fedi. Mastodon is part of the fedi, it's another selling point.

If their instance doesn't want them, they can spin an instance on their own.

No one can force a community to be accepted.

In Gesprächen mit #SocialMedia-Leuten hören wir oft
„Ja, auf #Mastodon umzustellen, ist wichtig. Es gibt aber gerade wichtigere Dinge, die vorgehen.“

Nun haben wir die Situation, dass ein an einer schweren Persönlichkeitsstörung erkrankter US-Präsident mit Hilfe von #Wahlbeeinflussungen durch #Facebook

und später durch #X
👉 https://www.reuters.com/world/us/wrong-claims-by-musk-us-election-got-2-billion-views-x-2024-report-says-2024-11-04/
ins Amt gekommen ist, und der Rest der Welt erheblich davon betroffen ist.

Wir zahlen höhere Preise für #Mobilität, Lebensmittel und noch viel mehr (einige 10 - einige 100 €/Person/Monat). Erhebliche Kosten entstehen der Gesellschaft durch den #Klimawandel, den die US-Administration krass verschärft (Mrd €/Jahr). Viele Menschen in den #USA haben ihre Jobs verloren, viele Menschen in #Nahost sogar ihr Leben.

Ist die Neuordnung der sozialen Medien nicht eine der wichtigsten Aufgaben, der wir uns zuwenden müssen?

Viele Leute im #Fediverse sehen das sicher auch so.
Aber wie kriegen wir den Punkt in die Köpfe der politischen Entscheider?

RE: https://social.coop/@scottjenson/116352800579635299

There are valid reasons why AI companies and tech bros are not welcome here, as well as people who are defending them or trying to rationalize the use of bourgeois technology that is unethical, causing the rapid issues of AI vandals running rampant, AI bots that scraps data to be trained without permission, use of AI by companies to do mass layoff and therefore the higher count of unemployment, AI "artist" that clutter streaming platforms, and more problems.

As this conversation is spiraling a bit I want to make a few things clear:
1. I'd like Mastodon to be MORE inclusive and bring in more voices
2. Some people don't seem to want that
3. This is core problem to solve: How do we let more in, but not "pollute" your feed?
4. The solution is NOT "gatekeeping", revelling in the fact that AI journalists aren't welcome
5. This is the same reason we lost "Black Twitter" when it came over in 2022

Yes, a lot of you don't want AI posts in your feed (or pick any other topic) but the solution isn't to keep "AI People" from joining Mastodon, any more than it is keeping marginalized communities off of Mastodon.

Heute vor 8 Jahren erschien Lance Ulanoffs Artikel »Six Reasons Mastodon Won't Survive« bei Mashable. Sein stärkstes Argument: William Shatner konnte ihn auf der Plattform nicht finden.

Mastodon läuft noch. Mashable nicht mehr so wirklich.

Was Ulanoff damals wie viele andere nicht verstanden hat: Mastodon wollte nie Twitter sein. Kein Investor, kein Monetarisierungszwang, keine zentrale Kontrolle – das waren keine Schwächen, sondern gewollt.

Acht Jahre später schreibt er bei TechRadar Microsoft-Lobbyismus und KI-Hype. Konsistent immerhin. 😂

In case you missed it, there's an 👁️ eye icon in the top right corner of post threads viewed through Mastodon's web interface.

Clicking the eye to toggle it on or off reveals or hides all the content warnings in that thread. It saves a lot of time as you don't have to open each post one at a time.

Alternatively, you can set your account to automatically show all posts with content warnings.

More info about both these options in the guide:

#FediTips #Mastodon

Is #mastodon becoming an echo chamber? This post from @carnage4life has me questioning our community. The Mastodon team is finally getting some traction, the product improvements are increasing, The #UX is improving, yet people posting on multiple platforms are making comments like this. It's confusing.

I *know* people here don't want this to be a classic social media-clone but we'd *like* journalists to be here right? They aren't coming with examples like this!

Did quite some maintenance on burningboard.net Mastodon instance today ..

Updated servers and jails to FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE-p5

1.
proxy_cache_path (S3 media cache) was already on a ZFS dataset with autosnapshot disabled .. But proxy_temp_path and client_body_temp_path (both nginx temp folders) weren't. Leading to extremely bloated daily ZFS snapshots for the Nginx jail. Changed those and cleaned old snapshots -> 31GB reclaimed space

2.
Cleaned up Database Snapshots and did a pg_repack on prod to reclaim deleted database pages -> 3GB reclaimed space

3.
Fixed issue with backend path over gif tunnel to Elasticsearch (6in6). Turned out to be a MSS issue (clamp-mss to 1140 solved it!)

4.
Fixed IPv6 routing issue for Prometheus Monitoring after reboot (rc.d static_routes != ipv6_static_routes)

All in all, our instance is in very good shape again :-)

For folks who want to give Mastodon a try... 🙋‍♂️

Just join a server. We call them instances. Here are few great choices:

Vivaldi: https://social.vivaldi.net/about Yes, Vivaldi the browser, but you don't need the browser.

mstdn.social: https://mstdn.social/auth/sign_up A really great choice! EU based and run by @stux. Cats!

inforsec.exchange: https://infosec.exchange/auth/sign_up If you like to follow tech. Run by @jerry

Or just go to https://joinmastodon.org and pick one. It is hard to go wrong.

#GlitchySocial #Mastodon instance has 5 users now, including me. Only one of them never logged in after registration. It took a blink of an eye to transfer from “hey, I should try to #selfhost a Mastodon instance” to “hey, I’m a service provider now”. Can’t say I’ve got much power but responsibility for sure.

Sorting out the difference between favouriting and bookmarking on Mastodon:

⭐ Favourites are the equivalent of likes. When you favourite a post it lets the post's author know you liked it.

🔖 Bookmarks are a private way of keeping track of posts that you want to read later. When you bookmark a post, only you know about the bookmark. The author of the post does not know.

#Mastodon isn't difficult because of what you have to learn, it's difficult because of what you have to unlearn.

It's amazing to see #Mastodon and the #Fediverse recommended more but in turn Bluesky is also named as a "good alternative"

I would like to argue it's not;

If the company behind Bsky decides to stop and shut down their services, your self-hosted PDS can't do anything anymore without all infrastructure needed

Ofc one could self-host this but this is a true nightmare and far from a good solution

So yeah, I feel moving to Bluesky is just moving the problem, it's not a solution

Kuddo's to @EUCommission for having but more importantly USING their #Mastodon instance actively

Not only posting but also engaging with people, love that!

Meanwhile the #US mostly uses "TruthSocial" that is build on wrecked Mastodon code to profit the President and him alone

This is a win for #Europe!

If Wordpress can do this, Pre-populate Image Alt Text field with IPTC Photo Metadata, then surely #Mastodon and other #Fediverse apps/things can do the same? This is fantastic news! https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/55535 #AltText #Accessibility

Again looking at running my own #Mastodon instance and seeing a ton of abandoned projects for lightweight, single-user #ActivityPub servers. Are there options that are actively maintained and ready for use? I've run #Pleroma before but don't actually need a web frontend. Happy to @phanpy and that's it. Suggestions, anyone?

One of the great things about Mastodon (and the Fediverse in general)…

When your post is boosted and faved a lot, you know it's out of genuine human interest, instead of caused by some biased, manipulative algorithm.

Folks, this is a general Gaza Verified message.

Please note that while we know the unconscionable situation people in Gaza are having to go through, we are also seeing a rise (from a small number of people) of mass tagging of people in messages and unsolicited direct messages.

To our friends and families in Gaza Verified: this is against the rules of almost every server, including the one your account is on and it will get your account limited or suspended. It is also against our rules (see https://gaza-verified.org/guide/ or, in Palestinian Arabic: https://gaza-verified.org/guide-arabic/) as we don’t want your accounts to get limited/suspended.

If your account is suspended by your server for no reason or as discrimination for who you are, we will challenge that and, if necessary, help you find a new server (see our friendly servers list in the guide).

And we have also worked with some of you to help explain the rules and advocate on your behalf when your accounts were suspended for mass tagging or unsolicited direct messages.

However, with a small number of accounts, we have seen the same behaviour continue the moment the account is reinstated.

In such situations, we cannot help you further. And we will not verify any new accounts you create to avoid these suspensions.

The goal of Gaza Verified from the start was to ensure that Mastodon and the fediverse was a safe space for our Palestinian friends and, with the help of many server admins, I believe we have, for the most part, succeeded in creating a space where Palestinians are respected and valued. But this is a two-way street. It is also important that the people here who care and want to help are not constantly subjected to targeted messages imploring them to help. Many of those who help are not well off themselves and they help when and how they can.

The best thing about Mastodon and the fediverse is that it is a place where you can build genuine friendships. Everything else will flow from this.

So I beg our friends in Gaza to see the long-term value of being part of a community that cares and hopefully talking to one another and helping ensure that a very small number of accounts doesn’t jeopardise that for everyone for short-term gain.

To our friends and families in Gaza, I do not presume to tell you how to use Mastodon or the fediverse but here are some of my thoughts based on what I’ve seen in the past half-year of Gaza Verified’s existence:

1. Please don’t see this as a competition with each other. We all know that everyone who is in Gaza needs help.

2. Please try and make genuine connections with people here. Share your everyday experiences. People will follow you and they will engage with you. And from that, some of them will no doubt also help you.

3. Please don’t target messages that try to guilt people who have helped in the past to help again. If they can help, they will. Please remember that they may not be in the best financial situation either.

For those of you reading who want to know how they can help, there are two main ways:

1. Check out the list of Gaza Verified accounts at https://gaza-verified.org/donate (ranked by those who raised the least in the past week).

2. Perhaps pick someone and try and organise monthly patronages for them so they can have a certain amount of money coming in every month (call it a universal basic income, if you will, or crowdfunded income redistribution, etc.) so they can pay their rent and/or basic necessities. We just successfully did that for Aseel, one of our Gaza Verified team members, where 17 patrons, including me, are paying her family’s rent. If there was more of this, there would be less need for these families, who are facing genocide and famine, to keep asking for donations.

3. If you are mass tagged in a message or if you receive unsolicited direct messages, please either contact @gazaverified or mute the person in question but please don’t report them if you can. Please remember that our friends in Gaza are facing genocide and the possibility of another famine. Muting them will stop them from contacting you without jeopardising their ability to provide for their family. And if you contact us, we will talk to them.

Hey #SelfHosted #mastodon peeps, talk me out of self-hosting a small/1 user instance?

It still is not fun, is it?

#fediverse

@spikybaddie I started #GlitchySocial as a single-user #Mastodon instance. It was fun. Now I have 4 users, 2.5 are active (including me). So I made a website, a status page and a logo which is even more fun: https://www.glitchy.social/.

@NuliusH

Es ist halt ein Problem vieler Linker (Dir will ich das nicht unterstellen), dass sie Andersdenkende für dumm halten. Viele von Euch auch hier auf #Mastodon wollen eigentlich das Gleiche wie die #AfD : Die Zerspaltung und Vernichtung von #CDU & #CSU. Und Ihr glaubt wirklich, wir merken das nicht…

Solche parteipolitischen Engführungen spüren wir leider auch bei vielen progressiven #Medien wie dem @Volksverpetzer . Moderaten Christdemokraten wie mir - die etwa auch die Sozialdemokratie & Grüne ehrlich schätzen - wird dann häufig vorgehalten, wir wären gegenüber Linken „naiv“.

Meine ehrliche Bitte an Linke im #Fediverse : Wenn Ihr die #Union schon verachtet, dann erspart Euch & uns doch bitte das falsche und pseudo-besorgte Gesülze. In dieser Frage sitzt Ihr mit den Blauen im gleichen Boot. Und wir merken das.

Vielen Dank. 🙏🇩🇪🇪🇺✅

i searched through the logs of my #NextDNS setups for the domain used in the #axios postinstall security issue fully assuming it would come up empty, but it did not 🫨

as this instance is linked to a bunch of #fediverse relays it receives a lot of random posts. and this morning it tried to load the link preview for a post containing said url 🫣

the lock file for #mastodon v4.5.8 also seems to be resolving to an older version
