Except for the cases of security upgrades, I usually wait a few weeks before upgrading #Mastodon and #Lemmy servers to any new release, but it looks like Mastodon 4.4.0 has some interesting features. Should I upgrade Communick's server this weekend?

So true 😓 — Tim Chambers on the #Fediverse:

Love the new #Mastodon 4.4 pinned post pagination... though I think I would like it to auto advance. even if slow.

On #Mastodon there are now
410 verified accounts from #news organizations in
21 languages and on
122 instances.

258 were active today.

Some accounts, that were active today are

@bilbokouriola (BAQ)
@TransportOnline (NLD)
@barren (BAQ)

With Mastodon v4.4.0 instance owners can enable HTTP referrers. That means:

If somebody clicks a link in a Mastodon post (e.g. to a news article), the link target owner (such as the news site operator) can see that a user from that instance has visited their website.

They do _only_ get the instance domain (e.g. metalhead.club). No information about the user!

I've enabled this setting, because I am sure that it will increase awareness of Mastodon's existence. 💪

Edit: (in previous versions, Mastodon did not send referrer-Headers)

We're now running v4.4.1 of the #Mastodon software. Hope you enjoy the updates. ✨

My post blew up, thanks to some high rollers follower-wise 😹

I always get a few nay-sayers sliding into my notifications, going on about "no interactions", "no traction", "not social", "no appeal" nonsense. How do you explain these comments and likes every other second then? You should follow more than 20 people here.

Fediverse is still the most lively social network I have ever used, since MySpace in 2003. It is better than Twitter or any commercial social media platform ever was. Absolutely love being here.

The most profound thing about it is the international coverage. After the first wave of enshittification in 2010, algorithms took over, and suddenly as a polyglot I was labeled as Finnish. No more visible international posts, people only saw the Finnish ones.

I've noticed the same effect in commercial AI. It ignores the fact that I use English online 99% of the time and still replies to me in Finnish despite all instructions. Algorithms and AI label you. They assign you a language, a status, a certain type of person. There's no changing that.

The Fediverse and Mastodon are delightfully mine, yours, and truly open source - respecting privacy. Nobody's machine can tell you, "You are this, and this is why we do that."

Fuck labelers and the fog machines. Let me be me. Here, on my own server, I can embrace my weirdness and post however I want, how often I want, whenever I want, in whatever language I choose - without constantly worrying about how my identity will be perceived by a machine.

@Mastodon 4.4 is out since a few day and rings brings multiple new features. I've wrote an blog post about one of the new features – the experimental Fetch Replies feature.

https://blog.gelbphoenix.de/introducing-mastodons-fetch-replies-feature/

#blog #Mastodon #Fediverse

@nyquildotorg #Mastodon and #ActivityPub needs a mechanism where domain names can be recycled. The fact that WordPress alone has no mechanism to allow a domain to exit the fediverse is reason enough. Sometimes servers get bricked and there is no way to go back and self-destruct.

Domains could be validated with a text record in the DNS by the owner of the domain name. If text record ActivityPubKill is true, then it should be trusted as so and defederated.

I'm not sure how this could be done, I don't know the ins and out. Maybe software packages could poll the DNS of failing federated servers and look for a universal or software specific kill tag or a file could be placed somewhere on a server that it looks for when a server fails, esp after 7 days.

Either way, a dns entry or a file on a physical server can be a trusted source as it takes elevated permission by someone in charge of a domain to usually do such a thing. #MastoDev #MastoAdmin

The Masto.NYC #meetup was a huge success!! We had a great turnout for our first time and had a blast. We may experiment with a different location next time (torch and crown music was pretty loud) but otherwise it was great! If anyone is interested in coming next time, make sure you're following @warren for updates.

Shout out to @jmac for the great idea!

Tiny Mastodon Tip About Quote Posts 📢

If your instance is already running the newly released version Mastodon 4.4,

Know that in preparation for the full implementation, the team has included a consent setting for the upcoming Quote Post feature.

While quoting a post will not
be available as a native feature until Mastodon 4.5 later this year, it's wonderful that you can adjust if you want in or not before it even arrives!

HOW TO❓

1. From the web interface, go to "Preferences" on the right-side menu. Then click on "Other" under the "Preferences" section

2. If your instance was newly updated, you should now see an option in "Posting Defaults" for "Who can quote" (see image below) 👇

Note: If the option isn't there, your instance has not updated to the version including it yet. Be patient, it will likely be added in the weeks to come.

3. From the "Who can quote" drop-menu, you can choose either "Everyone", "Followers and mentioned users", or "Only mentioned users"

4. Once the next version is released, you will be ready for Quote Posts! No matter your choices 💪

5. Enjoy the freedom of choosing the features you wish to participate in (or not)! 😌✨

For more information on Quote Posts, you can read Mastodon's announcement blog about it here: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2025/02/bringing-quote-posts-to-mastodon/

The received wisdom is that growth on Mastodon and Bluesky comes from big waves of new users who flee other networks when their owners say or do something particularly evil. But according to @laurenshof, that's no longer a given. "Musk managed to put himself up high on the list of people whose actions directly led for the largest number of deaths in the twenty-first century due to his involvement in the shutdown of USAID, but such evil did not meaningfully lead to people leaving Musk’s social network for other places," Hof writes for his Connected Places newsletter. Here, he takes a look at what's happening.

Mastodon's latest version has the ability to fetch missing replies from a conversation (under an experimental flag, not enabled by default).

This is a big deal, especially for smaller instances. Mastodon joins other platforms - of which I know of: Streams, GoToSocial, IceShrimp.NET and Bonfire - that pull back replies on request.

The hard work on the backend is done, and now there needs to be a discussion about how this interaction works as part of the user experience.

#Mastodon #Fediverse

Vorgestern hatte jemand, ich glaube Du, @galileo , darauf aufmerksam gemacht, dass Mastodon in Version 4.4.0 erschienen ist und man das aktualisieren sollte.

Es war 21:30 Uhr.

Eigentlich wollte ich ins Bett. Aber, ach was solls, installierste mal schnell noch 4.4.0. Oh, mein Ruby und /oder Redis ist jetzt zu alt. Na dann das zu erst.

2:25 Uhr bin ich mit völlig zerschossenem Mastodon ins Bett gefallen.

Und habe mich an meine Regel erinnert: "Mal eben schnell gibt es nicht!"

Am nächsten Morgen habe ich zusammen mit Gemini versucht, das System zum laufen zu bekommen. Wir haben installiert, deinstalliert, wieder installiert, aktiviert und deaktiviert. Wir haben Mastodon komplett sauber neu installiert und wieder deinstalliert. Alles verbunden mit Wartezeiten von durchaus 20 min oder mehr. Irgendwann hat Gemini gemeint: Sorry, ich bin am Ende meines Lateins.

Ich hätte 2 Möglichkeiten:

1. einen "richtigen" Experten mal auf mein System schauen lassen, das Problem liegt offensichtlich ausserhalb von Mastodon
oder
2. Mach Linux platt, installiere es komplett sauber, richte Mastodon neu ein, spiele ein Backup der Userdaten zurück.

Und da waren wir an dem Punkt, den ich immer befürchtet hatte: Ein Backup musste eingespielt werden.

Aber real gesehen war es egal. Die aktuelle Version werde ich nicht mehr hinbekommen. Also habe ich das mittlerweile knapp 3 Jahre alte System gebackupt, es waren am Ende drei Dateien: Datenbank, Medienarchiv, Konfiguration.

Dann habe ich die Platte abgezogen, eine zweite Platte genommen, das System sauber installiert und mit Gemini Schritt für Schritt Mastodon neu eingespielt.

Kritisch war erst ein mal nur der Bereich, die SSL-Verschlüsselung wieder zu aktivieren und dem Webserver zu überzeugen, die richtigen Dateien an der richtigen Stelle auszuspielen.

Und dann war das System, niegelnagelneu, tatsächlich wieder da.

Dann ging es ans Rückspielen. Und was soll ich sagen, es war am Ende tatsächlich relativ simpel. Klar, ohne Gemini hätte ich das nie hinbekommen.

Ich hab Gemini dann drei Listen erzeugen lassen:

1. Den kompletten am Ende funktionierenden Ablauf der Installation
2. Den kompletten am Ende funktionierenden Backup-Prozess.

Und die EISERNE Regel: "MAL SCHNELL GIBT ES NICHT!"

Nach 18 h lief das System wieder (inkl. 4,5 h schlafen).

Ein paar kleinere Dinge, Zeichenlimit, Upload-Limit hab ich dann später noch nachgeführt.

#mastodon #irrfahrt #gemini #linux #ruby #redis #update #backup #restore

When a video from #Peertube appears in my feed here in #Mastodon, it only shows the title and the URL, nothing more. This is not really helpful.

Would it be possible, that Mastodon shows something like the first 300 characters from the description (500 characters minus 120 for the peertube title and the URL), @renchap?

Seems like Peertube doesn't see it as their problem:

Note: If the option isn't there, your instance has not updated to the version including it yet. Be patient, it will likely be added in the weeks to come.

3. From the "Who can quote" drop-menu, you can choose either "Everyone", "Followers and mentioned users", or "Only mentioned users"

4. Once the next version is released, you will be ready for Quote Posts! No matter your choices 💪

5. Enjoy the freedom of choosing the features you wish to participate in (or not)! 😌✨

For more information on Quote Posts, you can read Mastodon's announcement blog about it here: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2025/02/bringing-quote-posts-to-mastodon/

#TinyMastodonTip #Mastodon #Fediverse #QuotePosts

Among the many new things. The two I'm most excited about:

1) Mastodon's interface is now ready to 'see' quote posts (like this one!) coming in. The next step, in v4.5 later this year will be to enable *creating* quote posts natively in the Mastodon web and app!

2) Admins can send emails to all users of their server to notify of critical issues and news! Yay!

I'll be using this to let #SocialBC folks know about our upcoming migration!

@nyquildotorg #Mastodon and #ActivityPub needs a mechanism where domain names can be recycled. The fact that WordPress alone has no mechanism to allow a domain to exit the fediverse is reason enough. Sometimes servers get bricked and there is no way to go back and self-destruct.

Domains could be validated with a text record in the DNS by the owner of the domain name. If text record ActivityPubKill is true, then it should be trusted as so and defederated.

I'm not sure how this could be done, I don't know the ins and out. Maybe software packages could poll the DNS of failing federated servers and look for a universal or software specific kill tag or a file could be placed somewhere on a server that it looks for when a server fails, esp after 7 days.

Either way, a dns entry or a file on a physical server can be a trusted source as it takes elevated permission by someone in charge of a domain to usually do such a thing. #MastoDev #MastoAdmin

Mastodon's latest version has the ability to fetch missing replies from a conversation (under an experimental flag, not enabled by default).

This is a big deal, especially for smaller instances. Mastodon joins other platforms - of which I know of: Streams, GoToSocial, IceShrimp.NET and Bonfire - that pull back replies on request.

The hard work on the backend is done, and now there needs to be a discussion about how this interaction works as part of the user experience.

A really easy video I have not seen is someone cover and showing off the new Mastodon features with each version release.

The core Mastodon org should do this but you really need a community of creators showing off the new features.

When a video from #Peertube appears in my feed here in #Mastodon, it only shows the title and the URL, nothing more. This is not really helpful.

Would it be possible, that Mastodon shows something like the first 300 characters from the description (500 characters minus 120 for the peertube title and the URL), @renchap?

Seems like Peertube doesn't see it as their problem:

The received wisdom is that growth on Mastodon and Bluesky comes from big waves of new users who flee other networks when their owners say or do something particularly evil. But according to @laurenshof, that's no longer a given. "Musk managed to put himself up high on the list of people whose actions directly led for the largest number of deaths in the twenty-first century due to his involvement in the shutdown of USAID, but such evil did not meaningfully lead to people leaving Musk’s social network for other places," Hof writes for his Connected Places newsletter. Here, he takes a look at what's happening.

There is a new setting for server operators in #Mastodon 4.4, under Administration -> Server Settings -> Discovery, called "Allow external sites to see your Mastodon server as a traffic source". If you're running a server for a larger group of people there is no privacy downside to enabling this, and it will help make the fediverse more visible as a traffic source to the rest of the web.

@dansup Yes. But it's still something essential... I mean, earning a living. And that makes me think of video content creators like on YouTube.

It's something that's present and needs to be taken into account. For example, on Peertube, I think there's a feature to provide financial support with a redirect link 🤔

Hmm… quote posts coming from #Bluesky #Bridgy are now showing as a quoted post in #Mastodon (software!) but I can't find how to do a quote post from the software itself. 😅

ok ... i think i'm ... back after a few hours?

attempted the big scary 4.4 #mastodon update on my personal instance that broke my server last time

it broke it again. but i think i managed to fix the endless redirect loops

i was originally serving http from the mastodon nginx server and reverse proxying Caddy https over the top and for some reason that wasn't working with this new version even though it worked perfectly before

oh well. hi everyone again 👋

With Mastodon v4.4.0 instance owners can enable HTTP referrers. That means:

If somebody clicks a link in a Mastodon post (e.g. to a news article), the link target owner (such as the news site operator) can see that a user from that instance has visited their website.

They do _only_ get the instance domain (e.g. metalhead.club). No information about the user!

I've enabled this setting, because I am sure that it will increase awareness of Mastodon's existence. 💪

I dislike that when you click a hashtag, it pops up a little menu instead of taking to you the "browse posts in #hashtag" page directly. The little popup should happen when you mouse over it, and it should act like a goddamned link when you click it.

Stuff like this, and the obstinance about not giving a setting to change the 500 character limit, and even simple stuff like not being able to temporarily deactivate your account just goes to show that Team #Mastodon makes some really goofus choices sometimes, I gotta say.

With Mastodon v4.4.0 instance owners can enable HTTP referrers. That means:

If somebody clicks a link in a Mastodon post (e.g. to a news article), the link target owner (such as the news site operator) can see that a user from that instance has visited their website.

They do _only_ get the instance domain (e.g. metalhead.club). No information about the user!

I've enabled this setting, because I am sure that it will increase awareness of Mastodon's existence. 💪

Edit: (in previous versions, Mastodon did not send referrer-Headers)

It seems that #LibreOffice will give us #Markdown support long before #Mastodon will add that as feature for slightly more rich formats when composing a toot. #SarcasmButOnlyHalf

It's been a feature request since ages. Just give us a bit of `courier` for commands, a tad of **bold** and

- bulleted
- lists

and [Nice link](https.//). It's long overdue :(

It's coming 👀

"Support for verifying remote quotes according to FEP-044f and displaying them in the Web UI has been implemented.

Quoting other people is not implemented yet, and it is currently not possible to mark your own posts as allowing quotes. However, a new “Who can quote” setting has been added to the “Posting defaults” section of the user settings. This setting allows you to set a default that will be used for new posts made on Mastodon 4.5 and newer, when quote posts will be fully implemented."

Is #mastodon the freedom from false discourse that it's cracked up to be¿
Or is it in #reality just as susceptible as all the other channels/media/outlets?

Is #censorship going on in mastodon.social, accounts being hidden without notification
Are certain accounts receiving unfair scrutiny and or suspension/deletion

Is this an allowable topic? Are we allowed to #discuss this without #fear of ramifications?

On bsky, of my 83 followers, 42 are spam. I can't stop them following, just block, but I still have 83 followers, despite having blocked 42.

Often I'm excited & intrigued to be greeted by ~12 notifications, but they're all about new followers, with each & every one spam. I spend more time laboriously blocking accounts than exploring.

Some people talk about minimizing social media time and the associated doomscrolling, but every day Mastodon reminds me of how many kind, caring people there are. And how many I'm privileged to know on here. (And how many have adorable cats. Or dogs. Or goats.) People who appreciate the beauty around us; people who want to save the environment; people who want a good life for everyone.

Has anyone logged this issue in Mastodon yet? Using the main website, in Firefox at least, I can't add alt text to an image with a screen reader.

On the main website, the alt area is actually a giant, accessible, drag and drop element that I can't remember right now, but a mouse user can just click the button, but since I am a keyboard user, it keeps wanting to lift, drag, and drop, when I hit the space bar or the enter key to activate the alt text button instead of actually pressing the alt text button.

If I wanna add alt text to an image, I need to use a third party client. This isn't accessible.

Has anyone filed this on Github? I'd rather comment on someone else's ticket than make one tonight for this issue.

Odd. Noticed that when viewing @mosseri from Mastodon his last post was on April 23, despite posting on Threads many times since and within the last 24 hours.

And if I follow him from here, his account doesn't show under my following list, despite indicating that I'm following on his profile.

Glitch? Intentional? How many other federated @threads accounts are like this? (Other threads.net accounts that I'm following seem okay.)

#Translation

Why are there still so many posts from both individual posters and entire instances where translation is neither offered nor allowed (http 403 or 503)

Certainly if #Mastodon wants to compete as #SocialMedia on a #GlobalStage translations into the reader's stated Interface Language should be mandatory, unless explicitly prohibited on an individual poster-by-poster basis

What gives?

As it is now, I #Mute and #Block posters who will not let me translate their posts into a language I can read

Why do I want to give up my very finite screen space to posts I'll never be able to read?

I don't, and I won't

Introducing #Hollo. Hollo is an #ActivityPub-enabled single-user microblogging software. Although it's for a single user, it also supports creating and running multiple accounts for different topics.

It's headless, meaning you can use existing #Mastodon client apps instead, with its Mastodon-compatible APIs. It has most feature parity with Mastodon. Two big differences with Mastodon is that you can use #Markdown in the content of your posts and you can quote another post.

Oh, and Hollo is built using #Bun and #Fedify.

A question about the things, as you are already open sourcing it (which is great):

Have you considered, moving the #pixelfed project into a foundation like #mastodon @Gargron is doing it?
As you always say it's not for sale anyway, it's maybe a nice idea. Also the other handy services like @fedidb ,loop and so on..
That would give the people even more trust into the Fediverse 🥰

While I was lying in the hammock yesterday (clicking on my iPhone), I started thinking about the current state of the "Twitter diaspora", the cross-posting, bridging and separation… and I ended up with this blog post 😅

TLDR: let's try to settle on the open networks, Bluesky & Fedi, let's connect them well, and let's move away from Twitter.

While I was lying in the hammock yesterday (clicking on my iPhone), I started thinking about the current state of the "Twitter diaspora", the cross-posting, bridging and separation… and I ended up with this blog post 😅

TLDR: let's try to settle on the open networks, Bluesky & Fedi, let's connect them well, and let's move away from Twitter.

Compared to all other social media platforms, Mastodon has very few 1 mintues videos (like you see those on Insta, TikTok, X etc) in my feed or in the trending tab. It has more text based content, followed by images. Very interesting! I guess humans have always liked to read and write. There is no automated alog here just humans talking and boosting what is important to them. This is how social media should be instead of constant push of clickbait videos.

I pitched this idea to an ISP I was consulting for last year. A free “linktree” style homepage, available with select domain packages.
This is my Fediverse version where the user can collect all their platforms together, in one place, as well as create one RSS feed for all their latest activity.

Finally got my own Mastodon instance setup on @mastohost!

I was trialling this out on Fedihost for a couple weeks but then felt that it was unnecessary due to having my social.lol account, but there's just a ton of drama on that right now between omg.lol and micro.blog - and I'm kind of wanting to keep a safe space for myself!

You'll see the same posts here as you will on my Bluesky/Threads accounts!

But having my own server feels special 😎✨

Pixelfed (and Mastodon) are increasingly targeted by spammers.

Our current AutoSpam detection using Naive Bayes isn't enough*, so we are building a better detection and mitigation system.

Not only will it leverage (optional) established 3rd party services like SpamHaus, but also threat intel from other trusted "reporter" instances like Pixelfed.social.

It's called https://FediThreat.net, and will be available soon!

I'm beginning to understand why there are so few blogging platforms that work with #activitypub. I thought I'd make my own as a weekend project and while it shows up fine in https://browser.pub/, getting #mastodon to correctly display posts and followers is driving me absolutely crazy.

Why does Mastodon need its own weird special stuff? Why can't it just load the followers and outbox collections like the standard expects? WHY?

Guten Morgen #Mastodon und alle, die #neuhier sind. Immer schön dran denken: Nur durch eigene Beiträge und das setzen von Hashtags ist man im #Fediverse sichtbar. Nur als reiner Leser funktioniert das System hier leider nicht. 😘

Anyone got an idea what can cause a #mastodon instance not showing privacy policy properly? Just showing when updated last but the text is entirely missing.

Really glad I used bikesare.cool in the presentation I did about #Mastodon only for the instance to go offline about a week later. (/sarcasm) 😐

And I spotted a mistake on my slides; the first time deadinsi.de is mentioned, I get the domain correct, then later in the presentation its listed as dead.inside 😬

Anyway, give the video a watch on #YouTube via this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mbdsRrjcyE0

Or if #PeerTube is more your thing, you can use this link: https://vid.northbound.online/w/xyRT9N3uTqAmGEmXpsNz6V?subtitle=en

Mastodon on Toot TUI

There is nothing like a TUI (text user interface) to really help me focus. So when I stumbled on Toot TUI, I had to give it a try. Now, it is probably one of my favorite terminal applications.

@jools
Hi Jools!
Zunächst habe ich es als Fediverse-Beginner auch mit #Friendica versucht, weil ich gelesen hatte, dass es am ehesten mit FB vergleichbar wäre. Um User dort wegzulocken, schien mir das wichtig.
Irgendwann habe ich bemerkt, dass die Zuordnung der Felder Titel und Text beim Übergang vom und zum viel größeren Mastodon-Fediversum schlecht gelöst ist. Deshalb habe ich dann Abstand genommen.
Außerdem ist die Installation von #Mastodon mit #Yunohost supereinfach.

Kurzer Nachtrag, ich möchte ja auch Lösungen liefern:

Sollte jemand interesse an einer skalierbaren, sicheren und preiswerten Infrastruktur inkl. Chat, Video, Cloud (inkl Collabora), Wiki, Mastodon, sowie Groupware (open XChange) und IDM an alle Dienste interessiert sein, gerne melden. Wir haben dieses System letztes Jahr mit dem Relaunch des NABU-Netz komplett auf open-source Basis für mehrere tausend Personen bereits umgesetzt.

Hello, #FediFolx! I'm here to boost mutual aid requests on #Mastodon and the #Fediverse

There are so many mutual aid requests on the Fedi, but sadly not many people notice, care, or contribute. I aim to change that. I'm not a billionaire (yet?), so this is my way of offering support to those who need it.

Use the tags #MutualAidRequest, #MutualAid, or #TransCrowdFund , or feel free to DM or mention @FediAid

I am a volunteer, I don't have a Kofi/Patreon/Liberapay because you should help out people I'm boosting instead.

I will boost as often as I can. This is NOT a bot account.

Peace ✌️

#MastodonMusic #Mastodon

Okay here is my very simple concept for a #FediCard - a "business card" that encourages people to join the #Fediverse and links to @_elena 's explanatory video.

My idea is that people can hand these out at #protests, political organizations, and so forth - where politically active people gather who already have had bad experiences with commercial social media.

The back side could be customized further to list an instance which is most relevant to the place where you want to share them - for example, I want to print a variant for the gruene.social #Mastodon instance.

I will certainly try to apply my meagre #design skills to make this more appealing, but first I wanted to hear what you all think of this concept, and what your suggestions for improvement are.

(Note: If you want to play around with the design, I have made it available in #SVG / #Inkscape format. The template has the 85 x 55 mm size for European business cards, so you will want to adjust it for other regions.)

@heybran define "algorithm". Technically, all software is an #algorithm. But if you mean "algorithmic feed" then, kind of. Algorithmic feeds are when the software chooses which posts are included in your main feed based on characteristics of that content and not just your following list. #Mastodon does this with hashtags. It doesn't choose those hashtags for you, which makes it a very customizable "algorithm". There's also the Explore tag, which has an "algorithm" that's chosen by your instance.

Hey everyone!

Just wanted to share a little update—I’ve been hanging out on warfn.app lately, thanks to a shoutout from @gabboman . It’s been awesome exploring a new corner of the fediverse, and I’d love to keep the conversation going with all of you.

If you’ve been following me here on Mastodon and enjoy what you see, I’d be thrilled if you could also follow @kirazune@app.wafrn.net . That’s where I’ll be posting fresh thoughts, random musings, and whatever else pops into my head.

Your support means the world—thanks for sticking around and for giving my new account a follow. Can’t wait to chat with you over there!

Cheers,
Kira Zune 🙏

Fediverse.Games is Waiting for You!

Are you looking for a friendly, inclusive fediverse community? Fediverse.Games has a variety of services, and we're taking on new members on all of them!

The Services

Mastodon

Our OG service is Mastodon! We run glitch-soc, which gives you longer posts, markdown formating, and plenty of other fun stuff!

PeerTube

The second (and fastest growing!) service we offer is PeerTube. Our PeerTube allows import from your YouTube channel and 50GB of free video hosting!

WriteFreely

We've recently added WriteFreely to our services! It isn't a perfect service, but it's the best option of those available and we think it's a great addition, and we hope the long-form games writing community will grow with our contribution to it.

The Rules

We wish to run a friendly, kind and inclusive server, and do not have any tolerance for discrimination or bigotry of any kind, including but not limited to racism, ableism, homophobia and transphobia. It can be hard enough for people to be their true selves offline, let's not make it harder online too.

We also have no tolerance for the promotion or nazi, alt-right and ultra-conservative ideologies.

In the pursuit of accessibility, we ask users to add alt-text to their images where they're apply to for the advantage of those using screen readers to interact with us. However, we also do not tolerate abuse toward users who might forget to do so or aren't used to doing it yet.

Legal Status

All of our infrastructure and user data is held in Australia.

Further Reading

We also have a wiki, where you can read our server charter and what we can expect of each other in more detail:
