Good morning Fedi friends!

All eyes are on this week, as censored all mentions and links to it.

Last year I wrote about the superb interoperability between Pixelfed and - it was one of my first articles for , which inspired me to try out more projects.

If you have friends who are curious about the Fediverse and @pixelfed you could share this: blog.elenarossini.com/the-futu

Hyvät uutiset: Työpaikkani Turun yliopisto lopettaa X:n käytön.

Huonot uutiset: Mastodonin sijaan TY ottaa tilalle Blueskyn.

Koska tiedote oli intrassa, niin nappasin sen tälleen kuvaruutukaappauksena. ALT-tekstinä copypaste tiedotteesta.

Otsikko: Yliopiston päätili sekä tiedekuntien ja lippulaivojen tilit lopettavat julkaisut X:ssä 

Ingressi: Turun yliopiston viestintäyksikkö lopettaa ylläpitämiensä X-tilien (ent. Twitter) päivittämisen. Muutos koskee yliopiston päätiliä, palvelussa olevia tiedekuntien tilejä sekä InFLAMES- ja INVEST-lippulaivojen tilejä.
​​
Leipäteksti: Yliopiston ajankohtaisviestintää voi seurata X:n sijaan jatkossa muissa suurimmissa sosiaalisen median kanavissa. Turun yliopisto on lisäksi ottanut uutena avauksena käyttöön Bluesky-kanavan, joka on viime aikoina kasvattanut suosiotaan.

Viestintäyksikkö tarkastelee säännöllisesti käytössä olevia viestintäkanavia ja niiden toimivuutta. Keskeisin syy X:n päivittämisen lopettamiseen on kanavan useita vuosia jatkunut epäsuotuisa ja arvaamaton kehitys. Kanava ei enää palvele viestinnällisiä tavoitteita yhtä tehokkaasti kuin aiemmin, ja yliopiston sidosryhmät siirtyvät kasvavassa määrin muihin sosiaalisen median alustoihin.

Kyseessä ei ole yliopiston yleislinjaus X:n käyttöön liittyen. Asiantuntijat, hankkeet ja tutkimusryhmät voivat siis edelleen käyttää X-palvelua, jos kanava tavoittaa haluttuja kohderyhmiä ja viestintä kanavassa tuntuu tarkoituksenmukaiselta.

Profiilit X-palvelussa säilytetään, jotta julkaistut sisällöt ovat edelleen käyttäjien saatavilla ja profiilien nimet säilyvät Turun yliopiston hallussa.

Hey @pluralistic can you explain why you’re signatory to a really scammy-looking effort („Free Our Feeds“) to raise 4M Dollar via gofundme(!) instead of, say, a 501(c)3 or any method that doesn’t skim money off donations, in order to establish a second Bluesky instance? Rather than, e.g. support efforts like going NGO or @dansup bringing pixelfed and loops up to speed to receive influx from Insta and TikTok?

Once an instance gets popular, it’s processing, storage and traffic costs get prohibitive for the people running it.

I regularly see reports of instances shutting down because the admins can no longer afford the hosting costs. This will only be worse when and spin up.

Recently I noticed there is a setting/feature where one can choose hashtags to feature on their profile. Not every Mastodon user interface shows the hashtags though. But for those that do use them, I find it's a great way of quickly getting to know a user by viewing their posts by hashtag topic.

Anyone else using this feature? It's making me want to use hashtags in all my posts from here on out.

There are a few reasons for the transition, one of them being that graphics.social is federated with Threads.net. I have the domain blocked for the time being, but I feel like one last move to a community that aligns more with my values is the right choice.

@Gargron I am truly grateful for all the work you've done to increase the usage of the protocol.

There is no arguing that without your leadership and your dedication, we would not be where we are today. As a society, I believe it is paramount that we take control of the back to the people in a manner, and has been a MASSIVE push in that direction.

Thank you Eugen, I'm glad you exist and I appreciate your work 😃

Est ce qu’il y aurait des recommandations à partager sur ?
—> Choses à faire ou ne pas faire (respect des autres et pas d’insultes me semble du bon sens)
—> des comptes à suivre sur les infos (type @mediapart, @blast_info)
—> des comptes sur la danse (breakdance, hip-hop)
—> des comptes sur le vélo, le skate, l’humour ?

Assholes in this world have made me very cynical.

I feel that every time I login to Fedi these days, there's yet another scheme to get people to dump money into a project for "the growth of the Fediverse" yet we have yet to see any results and the things they're doing seem shady as fuck to me. Yet people keep parading around like it's the best thing ever.

SWF forms and is funded by major companies like Meta and Auttomatic. Not sure how that could be a good thing. That means SWF will be financially influenced by these companies and there's nothing anybody can do to change that.

Now, Mastodon is being given to a new non-profit. They say this is to "give the power back to the people" but obviously giving ownership to a non-profit doesn't do that...it gives ownership to the non-profit and allows them to hide your donations via shady legalities to enrich themselves.

Money hungry fucks ruin everything. Change my mind.

Mastodonは新たな非営利団体を設立して("Mastodon Foundation" とかにするのかな?)Mastodonコンポーネントの所有権をそこに移すことにしたと。もうEugenさん一人のものではなくなる方向に持って行くと。今後の発展を見越して色々考えてるねえ。

Look.

I'm capable of abandoning Facebook because I'm not sentimental (literally, at all) - and I never had a positive friend group in there, or a community service I depended on. I know I brain different than most of my colleagues.

If fedi worked easy for you and you quickly found what you wanted with hashtags, that's great

But other people will literally *experience pain* on not being able to connect with their friends.

So yes, there's a reason all these new users keep asking for better discovery features, or why people keep trying to find a way to peer with threads in limited pockets (like *just* their old group but not all of terf world)

You are, by definition, an early adopter of a niche app. You're more prone to accept bugs and lack of features.

You are the *exception* to the rule, because you are comfortable with something strange and different. You have free time.

Most users like their existing friends and apps, and *can't* easily rebuild that which is permanently lost.

"Decentralized social network organization said Monday that it is planning to create a new non-profit organization in Europe and hand over ownership of entities responsible for key Mastodon ecosystem and platform components. This means one person won’t have control over the entire project."

New Social is big and still growing 🐘

It can be hard to visualise just how big, so hopefully this helps.

New Social is attracting more users daily as people turn from the Big Tech platforms that no longer feel like home.

New Social is an idea that encompasses multiple platforms, designed to be democratic and open - including Mastodon. They are the future of social media.

Learn more about New Social (and how big it is) by following us!

Hyvät uutiset: Työpaikkani Turun yliopisto lopettaa X:n käytön.

Huonot uutiset: Mastodonin sijaan TY ottaa tilalle Blueskyn.

Koska tiedote oli intrassa, niin nappasin sen tälleen kuvaruutukaappauksena. ALT-tekstinä copypaste tiedotteesta.

Otsikko: Yliopiston päätili sekä tiedekuntien ja lippulaivojen tilit lopettavat julkaisut X:ssä 

Ingressi: Turun yliopiston viestintäyksikkö lopettaa ylläpitämiensä X-tilien (ent. Twitter) päivittämisen. Muutos koskee yliopiston päätiliä, palvelussa olevia tiedekuntien tilejä sekä InFLAMES- ja INVEST-lippulaivojen tilejä.
​​
Leipäteksti: Yliopiston ajankohtaisviestintää voi seurata X:n sijaan jatkossa muissa suurimmissa sosiaalisen median kanavissa. Turun yliopisto on lisäksi ottanut uutena avauksena käyttöön Bluesky-kanavan, joka on viime aikoina kasvattanut suosiotaan.

Viestintäyksikkö tarkastelee säännöllisesti käytössä olevia viestintäkanavia ja niiden toimivuutta. Keskeisin syy X:n päivittämisen lopettamiseen on kanavan useita vuosia jatkunut epäsuotuisa ja arvaamaton kehitys. Kanava ei enää palvele viestinnällisiä tavoitteita yhtä tehokkaasti kuin aiemmin, ja yliopiston sidosryhmät siirtyvät kasvavassa määrin muihin sosiaalisen median alustoihin.

Kyseessä ei ole yliopiston yleislinjaus X:n käyttöön liittyen. Asiantuntijat, hankkeet ja tutkimusryhmät voivat siis edelleen käyttää X-palvelua, jos kanava tavoittaa haluttuja kohderyhmiä ja viestintä kanavassa tuntuu tarkoituksenmukaiselta.

Profiilit X-palvelussa säilytetään, jotta julkaistut sisällöt ovat edelleen käyttäjien saatavilla ja profiilien nimet säilyvät Turun yliopiston hallussa.

Looking back on the indie projects I developed in 2024

✨SoraSNS: An iOS client for Mastodon, Misskey, Bluesky, and Nostr in the Fediverse, featuring an AI-powered "Recommended" timeline

✨Neo: A decentralized chat app built on Matrix

✨Spatial Escape I: A phone booth escape game for Apple Vision Pro

Other apps I launched:

🦊URL Passport: Check domain ownership details
🐙Octo Notes: Note-taking app for iPad with Pencil support
🤖Smart AI: Chat with local LLMs like Phi and Llama
🦊Kyoto Shrine Guide: A guide to Kyoto's shrines

Next month, I’m launching a new indie app about ✈️. Stay tuned!

People just don't get Mastodon.

Even, in my case, people with a background in experimental art and political activism. I'm currently involved in endless online discussions about Mastodon vs. Bluesky, and people just don't understand what it's about and why one is preferable to the other.

The language of "instances" and "decentralisation" completely confuses them (and it would be much more helpful to use more understandable, jargon-free language such as "globally interconnected community servers").

Everyone thinks that in Mastodon/the Fediverse/a decentralised network you can only communicate and connect with people on your own instance, and doesn't understand that you can also post, read and connect globally across instances.

I am afraid that after 25 years the cultural hegemony of internet platforms is irreversible. Mastodon confuses people because it looks like a platform.

Facebook did not have an over-censorship problem. Facebook main problem was that its algorithms promote hate speech and disinformation, lately with the addition of inauthentic content. Fighting that through fact-checking is always going to be an uphill battle.

This is the reason I believe that content algorithms have no place in social media and that user profiling should be banned. Spreading misinformation and hate speech is a lot harder without the amplification algorithms.

That doesn't bode well. The import of blocks, bookmarks, followers and lists went okay in , though the documentation is a little off (it refers to the files being in the cwd, but they have to be in the users directory).

I’ve followed the instructions for aliasing my account on the snac server and verified that the alias is in the user.json. But the migration won't kick off. I’m a bit wary to keep trying.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it... 👩‍💻

New Social is here to stay, now it's your turn to get involved.

Your first task: consider connecting to social platforms beyond this one.

To connect with Bluesky, just follow @bsky.brid.gy

It's time to make open social media a reality.

Thank you Mastodon.

Just sitting here this morning scrolling through Mastodon and it occurred to be amazed and thankful for a piece of software that just does it's primary function without being bombarded by a bunch of nonsense or sucking up personal information and selling it off. It is really amazing how few things are left in our daily lives that are not crammed full of exploitive junk. Thank you Mastodon for simply existing.

It's with a heavy heart that I'm announcing the closure of this mastodon instance after 2 years. Due to multiple factors with getting finance for the server and now the UK law changes for social media sites plus the burden of moderation this server will close forever on the 28th of Feb 2025. If anyone would like to take full ownership I'm happy to transfer please contact me via email [email protected].

I HAVE BEEN TELLING YOU. Kara, I'm on Mastodon because you said it was cool. You were right.
Listen to me now. You can start your own instance. Mastodon is a constellation of independent sites, all connected, but also all free agents.

Look it up.

Hey @karaswisher and @profgalloway

In that order. 😉
I listened to Friday's Pivot podcast and heard your dismay over having to move social media platforms again now the Zuck has gone full MAGA.
I HAVE BEEN TELLING YOU. Kara, I'm on Mastodon because you said it was cool. You were right.
Listen to me now. You can start your own instance. Mastodon is a constellation of independent sites, all connected, but also all free agents.

Look it up.

Yesterday, I saw a post of a historical photo that ended up being ai. Today, Meta is abandoning fact checking. This makes me wonder—does anyone know if Mastodon has considered giving users a way to link their sources?

Wikipedia comes to mind, but even more so, OpenStreetMap, where each time you contribute, you also link any sources.

In a similar way you view the "Edit History" on a toot, it would be neat if you could also see sources.

Please ask your favorite mastodon.social accounts you're following here whether they'd consider switching to a different instance, that takes a principled stance against and does not federate with .

You can use the mastodonlistmanager.org to figure out which accounts are affected:

  • Relationships: "I'm following"
  • Group by: "Account domain"

BTW, the tool is maintained by @acbeers – it's fabulous for moving accounts around lists, and also for finding accounts that are not on a list yet, at all. In general, it adds many list management capabilities that sadly lacks.

It's with a heavy heart that I'm announcing the closure of this mastodon instance after 2 years. Due to multiple factors with getting finance for the server and now the UK law changes for social media sites plus the burden of moderation this server will close forever on the 28th of Feb 2025. If anyone would like to take full ownership I'm happy to transfer please contact me via email [email protected].

@zkat interesting. IMO once the instances are widely federated, anything one posts into the fediverse, it's out there propagating all over the place, and the OP has no control over what's going to happen to that post, does it get into a search database? Meta's AI tools?

The best we can is be mindful of that before hitting the Post button, on the globally federated instances.

For private and safe spaces one probably nees to limit federation to pre-approved instances.

If you prefer a more presentation when following or accounts, it's easy!

Create a account like you did for pixelfed.org/servers

Then, if you find an artist that you want to follow from there, due to the nicer layout for that type of content, just copy and paste their account

ex. @nicetriangle into the search bar and voila ... you're following from there (where you can also comment)

Have your bookmarks been mysteriously disappearing? Have older posts and replies from other servers vanished? If so, it may mean your Mastodon server has an incorrect admin setting.

If this has happened to you, ask your server admin to make sure that they have blanked their “remote content retention period” / “content cache retention period” setting.

There's more info for admins about this setting in the guide at:

Have your bookmarks been mysteriously disappearing? Have older posts and replies from other servers vanished? If so, it may mean your Mastodon server has an incorrect admin setting.

If this has happened to you, ask your server admin to make sure that they have blanked their “remote content retention period” / “content cache retention period” setting.

There's more info for admins about this setting in the guide at:

The past few days, I've been toying with the idea of setting up a single-user Mastodon instance.

I'm currently looking at Masto.host as a hosting provider. The prices seem reasonable?

First, for those who have rolled their own instance: How has the experience been? Any advice you'd share with a self-hosting newbie? Any pitfalls or downsides?

Have you gone with a specialist managed prover like Masto.host?

Are there any major advantages or disadvantages over a vanilla cPanel web hosting provider that supports Mastodon?

Another option I'm toying with is using a single instance of Friendica as my Fedi home, and consolidating everything there, including photos.

Are there any managed hosting providers that support Friendica?

So this is apparently NOT enough for mastodon.social to defederate Threads.

Heya !
En transition vers Mastodon depuis quelques mois, je me dis qu’avec les dernières infos données par j’ai fais le bon choix !

Est ce qu’il y aurait des recommandations à partager sur ?
—> Choses à faire ou ne pas faire (respect des autres et pas d’insultes me semble du bon sens)
—> des comptes à suivre sur les infos (type @mediapart, @blast_info)
—> des comptes sur la danse (breakdance, hip-hop)
—> des comptes sur le vélo, le skate, l’humour ?

in search of a more inclusive community, welcome :heart_pride: :trans_heart: :blobcatheart:

While the Fediverse also has its challenges, it is a community constantly trying to improve for its people, and away from the danger of the monetization of hate.

If you feel lost and are in need of advice:

1. I wrote these tiny tips to help you feel at home in no time: infosec.exchange/@Em0nM4stodon

2. Feel free to ask questions around! People will be happy to help. Hashtags are important here. If you have a question related to Mastodon for example, use

3. Be patient. Be you. Explore. Follow many to build a full feed (it is more important here because there is no algorithm).

I'm super excited that Osa Atoe @potterybyosa just joined !!!!!

She's a well known and super talented , teacher, activist and leader in the USA (and international) and circles.

Having someone like her on Mastodon is a big deal.

She just joined and doesn't have many followers (yet), but hopefully you will give her a follow and boost her profile so that she feels welcome on this platform.

2024 wasn't the best year for social media... but it's 2025 now 🎉

That means it's time to move to greener pastures. Social media that's open, democratic, and controlled by the users.

This year, we're looking forward to raising awareness for New Social and introducing more people and organisations than ever to open social.

We hope to help them move to truly open platforms, like this one.

Get ready for a thread(s).

With all the recent heat about Meta and seeing that the company decided to fully take advantage of a pretty much fascist political party to leverage their own needs, after a peaceful discussion the staff at The Gamer's Tavern decided to de-federate from Threads.net effective immediately.

Here’s another thought. What happens if a Mastodon instance goes offline? Like it just disappears from the Internet? Do the posts that once lived there that were boosted by users on other instances survive? Or do those “echos” disappear too?

Folks, do you think if Threads/Meta/Mark Zuckerberg were really that bad, John Mastodon himself would partner with them? Do you think they’d even be allowed in the Social Web Foundation?

No, surely you’re mistaken.

Otherwise, what does that say about John Mastodon and the Social Web Foundation?

I analysed the posts I've made over the last 2+ years for the clients I've been using, and created some charts.

The first one is the pie chart of the post count by clients. @ivory for Mac is the winner here, with 30% posts made using it. @phanpy and the default Mastodon web client are seconds at 22%. @trunksapp is third at 12%, and @elk comes fourth at 10%.

The second chart shows the post count split by clients over time. It shows that I started with using the web client for the first few months, tried Ivory, trunks and Elk for the next few months, and then settled on using Ivory on my laptop and trunks on my phone. Few months later, I replaced trunks with Phanpy, and then continued using the Ivory-Phanpy combo consistently for over a year, with few posts being made from Web, Elk and trunks. The last bar shows me trying to replace Ivory with Phanpy as my sole major client.

The thing that people see an issue with, is the fact that a lot of people use it to "harass" others in front of their followers as if to say "laugh at this fool". However, if this is truly the "open" web, that's just gonna be a thing.

I hope they eventually make it an official feature as well, but for now, most third party apps have it built-in.

Post from Misskey developer: 

Mastodon might be happier if it only confederates with Mastodon, and Misskey confederates only with Misskey. Troubles due to functional differences are commonplace, and
implementations that change behavior or limit functions depending on the confederate partner are necessary. However, it is quite costly (in the first place, there are limited ways to know in advance how the coalition partner will implement it).

@cragsand @MastodonEngineering @Mastodon @elk I think they are aware. 😅
I've been sending my ideas under issue discussions and pretty sure that couple of things we have today were inspired by other UIs like Elk and Mastodon Bird UI.

But things need to be built to core. The SCSS side of it needs major rework. I hope they find someone who is eager to take the task.

New Year, New Social 💡

So, what does New Social mean?

To us, it's a vision of open social media - free from the control of a single person. It's not a single platform (or protocol) but a new way of thinking.

A place where you can post, build community across multiple platforms, and move if you ever need to.

It's a one stop solution to the closed networks that only serve the billionaires who own them.

My server is running the software platform, a fork of , to post messages via the protocol. You can see my post, even though you may use another platform to participate in the fediverse, like or . So, without using the same platform, we can share messages because we use the same protocol. We have to move from platform-based networking to protocol-based networking. Get rid of the lock-ins, be self-sovereign!

Thank you Mastodon.

Just sitting here this morning scrolling through Mastodon and it occurred to be amazed and thankful for a piece of software that just does it's primary function without being bombarded by a bunch of nonsense or sucking up personal information and selling it off. It is really amazing how few things are left in our daily lives that are not crammed full of exploitive junk. Thank you Mastodon for simply existing.

Well, not really "very different". Nobody is talking about the truly different social media - The Fediverse and Mastodon, that is.

Dear friends of the BSD Cafe,

As 2024 comes to an end, it’s time to reflect on what we’ve built together during the first full year of life for BSD Cafe. Launched on 20 July 2023, this project has grown far beyond what I could have imagined. While I haven’t tracked full uptime data, I can confidently say that the downtime was less than 30 minutes overall - even though the main VM hosting our services moved multiple times (including a switch from a Proxmox hypervisor to bhyve on FreeBSD, for the sake of alignment with our mission). In a world filled with over-engineered HA systems, we’ve outperformed many “big-name” cloud providers. Not bad for a community project, right?

For me, this has been an incredible journey. The users here are not just participants - they’re collaborators, and their positivity has been inspiring. The content shared and created at BSD Cafe has been valuable not only to the BSD community but beyond. What truly sets BSD Cafe apart is the openness for dialogue and exchange. Whether it’s social media posts, Matrix discussions, repositories in our brew, or RSS feeds, people seem to genuinely appreciate what we create and the conversations we foster.

BSD Cafe is a journey - one that grows, evolves, and continues. Our goal isn’t endless growth (we’re a community, not a business) but rather to maintain a welcoming, inclusive space where everyone feels a sense of positivity and belonging. For me, opening any service with “bsd.cafe” in the domain brings joy and pride. That’s the spirit I’ve tried to convey, and I hope it resonates with all of you, whether you’re active BSD Cafe users or friends of the community.

Promoting self-hosting and has, as a side effect, inspired some users to “go solo” with their own setups. But even then, they remain part of BSD Cafe - in spirit, in purpose, and in connection.

Here’s a look at what we’ve achieved together this year:

- mastodon.bsd.cafe: 370 total users
Active in the past month: 207
Active in the past six months: 286
- snac.bsd.cafe: 14 total users
Active in the past month: 7
- blendit.bsd.cafe: 61 registered users
- matrix.bsd.cafe: 23 users
- brew.bsd.cafe: 29 users - 80 repositories
- freshrss.bsd.cafe: 25 users
- miniflux.bsd.cafe: 11 users
- press.bsd.cafe: 9 users
- myip.bsd.cafe: Constantly used by various users
- wiki.bsd.cafe: Could use a bit more love and content, but it fulfills its role as a functional homepage.
- tube.bsd.cafe: Still in testing - Peertube 7.0 update is on the way.

For detailed stats from our reverse proxy and general router (excluding media services, which generate most traffic but are handled via caching reverse proxies), you can check here - updated hourly: netstats.bsd.cafe

The journey of BSD Cafe continues, and I look forward to seeing where 2025 will take us. Together, we’ve built something special - something driven by passion, shared purpose, and a little bit of the BSD magic that makes all of this possible.

Here’s to a new year full of joy, serenity, and connection. Thank you for being part of this adventure.

Wishing you all a fantastic 2025 - and THANK YOU!
Stefano

If I'm solely looking at time spent vs money saved, I would say I lost money on moving this mastodon server to my homelab, but not a ton. I learned quite a bit along the way, but it was a full Saturday afternoon and some time over last week with the media migration.

Again, props to all you fedi administrators doing this on your own time. Users, please go tip your admins generously.

I analysed the posts I've made over the last 2+ years for the clients I've been using, and created some charts.

The first one is the pie chart of the post count by clients. @ivory for Mac is the winner here, with 30% posts made using it. @phanpy and the default Mastodon web client are seconds at 22%. @trunksapp is third at 12%, and @elk comes fourth at 10%.

The second chart shows the post count split by clients over time. It shows that I started with using the web client for the first few months, tried Ivory, trunks and Elk for the next few months, and then settled on using Ivory on my laptop and trunks on my phone. Few months later, I replaced trunks with Phanpy, and then continued using the Ivory-Phanpy combo consistently for over a year, with few posts being made from Web, Elk and trunks. The last bar shows me trying to replace Ivory with Phanpy as my sole major client.

I’ve just stumbled into another annoyance in the architecture: thread continuity is broken when an item in the chain is broken.

Suppose there is this thread of posts/replies, made by three users, and I wrote the last reply (C).

A → B → C

Suppose I wanted to find post A. Sadly, I don’t remember what post A contained (or A’s post is not searchable), but I do remember what I wrote in response in C. I look for my reply and find it, but much to my dismay, the poster of B has deleted their post. So now I have:

A → ✵ → C

Since B is missing, I can no longer find A.

I was under the assumption that ActivityPub provides for a tombstone in place of B, which allows the reply chain to continue to be traversed, but I don’t think that’s the case—the tombstone contains no reference to A at all.

This is particularly annoying because the longer the thread, the more likely this is to happen. I wonder if anyone is already looking at this issue?

First Saturday of the New Year! :blobcatrainbow: 🎉

This is the perfect timing to backup your Mastodon data!

HOW TO❓

From the web interface:

1. Go to "Preferences" > "Import and export" and in the "Export" section click on "Request your archive" at the bottom :blocky_white_cursor:

2. Wait for the compressed file to be ready, it can take a few minutes. You might receive an email notification if you have set it up that way 🗜️

3. Once ready, in the same section click on "Download your archive"
(I like to save mine in a local folder I name "MastodonArchive_YYYYMMDD") 📁

4. Then, in the upper section of the same page click on each of the "CSV" buttons you see on the right side and save them in the same local folder 💾

5. Magic!✨

Note: You should probably do this more than once a year too 😉

The Fediverse makes me anxious sometimes. It's not always pure joy and bliss, especially as an admin.

Top 5 things that make me anxious here:

1. When people can't just agree to disagree, but have to crucify others or report them because they didn't like what they said - or even start a hateful campaign for it
2. When people endlessly nitpick and dissect otherwise good post
3. When the obscure and dark instances or nostr users find your posts and start posting hateful content because of "free speech"
4. When you get judged if you use the wrong word or even hint towards something that someone doesn't agree on
5. When you make a decision in moderation and any decision pisses off someone - lose-lose situation

It's not daily or often times even monthly, but it happens. I'm glad we mostly get along though.

Blocking, fediblocking, reporting and muting are the most important features here.

Announcing FediMeteo – Weather in the Fediverse!

UPDATE: I have created an account for updates and other information on FediMeteo - follow the account @admin to stay updated!

UPDATE: Ireland, Poland, Portugal and Switzerland have just been added

Weather has always influenced our lives: from agriculture to outdoor activities, to extreme events that, thanks to modern technology, can now be predicted with greater reliability. Personally, weather plays a significant role in my daily decisions, which is why I decided to create a service tailored for the Fediverse.

FediMeteo uses Open-Meteo data to publish updates every 6 hours, including current weather conditions, forecasts for the next 12 hours, and predictions for the upcoming days. Each country is served by its own dedicated instance (e.g., it.fedimeteo.com for Italy), managed through snac to ensure simplicity and efficiency in publishing.

You can follow FediMeteo directly in the Fediverse (on Mastodon and compatible platforms), via RSS, or by visiting the dedicated page for your city (e.g., fr.fedimeteo.com/paris).

Currently supported countries include:
Austria, Germany, France, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, – with many more regions coming soon!

FediMeteo is hosted on a FreeBSD-based VPS, with each country isolated in its own jail to ensure security and scalability.

Visit the main site to explore the national instances and start following your local weather updates today:
fedimeteo.com

Happy weather monitoring to all! 🌦️

FediMeteo is dedicated to my grandfather, who every evening would give me the weather forecast based on TV, radio, and his personal experience. He would convince me that the weather would be bad, so he had an excuse to accompany me to school instead of me going alone.

Is Short Content Sometimes "Better"?

Short posts on Twitter, Mastodon, BlueSky, etc.

Short videos on TikTok, YouTube (Shorts), Vidzy, Loops, etc.

Could short content create a better user-experience (UX)?

Each country is served by its own dedicated instance (e.g., it.fedimeteo.com for Italy), managed through snac to ensure simplicity and efficiency in publishing.

You can follow FediMeteo directly in the Fediverse (on Mastodon and compatible platforms), via RSS, or by visiting the dedicated page for your city (e.g., fr.fedimeteo.com/paris).

Currently supported countries include:
Austria, Germany, France, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, – with many more regions coming soon!

FediMeteo is hosted on a FreeBSD-based VPS, with each country isolated in its own jail to ensure security and scalability.

Visit the main site to explore the national instances and start following your local weather updates today:
fedimeteo.com

Happy weather monitoring to all! 🌦️

FediMeteo is dedicated to my grandfather, who every evening would give me the weather forecast based on TV, radio, and his personal experience. He would convince me that the weather would be bad, so he had an excuse to accompany me to school instead of me going alone.

Why would people even go to bluesky? I mean mastodon is right there. Just another application that ruins the fun for Mastadon users. Fediverse is the way, it might just take some time for people to understand that.

I suspect Mastodon has changed their character bio limit from being measured in (unicode) characters to bytes.

Is this a bug?

@feditips I'm honestly surprised that I'm not seeing widespread use of text as images with alt text to at least get more chars in Mastodon. (AFAIK, alt text has a larger limit, more than twice the post limit, and the image itself of course won't enforce any limit, other than possibly applying lossy compression)

Also the ability to mark a reply as "not wanted", so that readers at least know that the author of a post wants to warn.

Dear friends of the BSD Cafe,

As 2024 comes to an end, it’s time to reflect on what we’ve built together during the first full year of life for BSD Cafe. Launched on 20 July 2023, this project has grown far beyond what I could have imagined. While I haven’t tracked full uptime data, I can confidently say that the downtime was less than 30 minutes overall - even though the main VM hosting our services moved multiple times (including a switch from a Proxmox hypervisor to bhyve on FreeBSD, for the sake of alignment with our mission). In a world filled with over-engineered HA systems, we’ve outperformed many “big-name” cloud providers. Not bad for a community project, right?

For me, this has been an incredible journey. The users here are not just participants - they’re collaborators, and their positivity has been inspiring. The content shared and created at BSD Cafe has been valuable not only to the BSD community but beyond. What truly sets BSD Cafe apart is the openness for dialogue and exchange. Whether it’s social media posts, Matrix discussions, repositories in our brew, or RSS feeds, people seem to genuinely appreciate what we create and the conversations we foster.

BSD Cafe is a journey - one that grows, evolves, and continues. Our goal isn’t endless growth (we’re a community, not a business) but rather to maintain a welcoming, inclusive space where everyone feels a sense of positivity and belonging. For me, opening any service with “bsd.cafe” in the domain brings joy and pride. That’s the spirit I’ve tried to convey, and I hope it resonates with all of you, whether you’re active BSD Cafe users or friends of the community.

Promoting self-hosting and has, as a side effect, inspired some users to “go solo” with their own setups. But even then, they remain part of BSD Cafe - in spirit, in purpose, and in connection.

Here’s a look at what we’ve achieved together this year:

- mastodon.bsd.cafe: 370 total users
Active in the past month: 207
Active in the past six months: 286
- snac.bsd.cafe: 14 total users
Active in the past month: 7
- blendit.bsd.cafe: 61 registered users
- matrix.bsd.cafe: 23 users
- brew.bsd.cafe: 29 users - 80 repositories
- freshrss.bsd.cafe: 25 users
- miniflux.bsd.cafe: 11 users
- press.bsd.cafe: 9 users
- myip.bsd.cafe: Constantly used by various users
- wiki.bsd.cafe: Could use a bit more love and content, but it fulfills its role as a functional homepage.
- tube.bsd.cafe: Still in testing - Peertube 7.0 update is on the way.

For detailed stats from our reverse proxy and general router (excluding media services, which generate most traffic but are handled via caching reverse proxies), you can check here - updated hourly: netstats.bsd.cafe

The journey of BSD Cafe continues, and I look forward to seeing where 2025 will take us. Together, we’ve built something special - something driven by passion, shared purpose, and a little bit of the BSD magic that makes all of this possible.

Here’s to a new year full of joy, serenity, and connection. Thank you for being part of this adventure.

Wishing you all a fantastic 2025 - and THANK YOU!
Stefano

I made the mistake of engaging with a thread over the weekend where an obvious paranoid schizophrenic decided to start replying to me.

I’ve muted them on my PC but the fact that mutes are only client side means my notifications are likely a god damn minefield and I’m avoiding looking at them on my phone. This is a REALLY STUPID DESIGN.

I wish Mastodon handled ActivityStreams "type":"Video" as well as "type":"Note" with a Video attachment.

They could be rendered the same. But they (currently) aren't.

Let it snow! ❄️

I have added snow to my instance during the winter holidays. It's a tiny JS canvas and fades out on scroll down. The snow is also respecting the system accessibility settings, it won't be there if you prefer reduced motion.

Here's the source code for server admins: github.com/ronilaukkarinen/mas
See the snow yourself: mementomori.social

Snow slowly and smoothly falling down from top of the Mastodon window

@berniethewordsmith Explain it to me like I'm five: How does Person A using the bridge endanger Person B not using the bridge? I mean, Jesse Singal will still be over there, and we'll still be over here, so if I don't feel like blocking everyone from Bluesky, how does that put someone else over here at risk?

@feb du weisst ja, wie ich das sehe (das ist auch technisch vielfältig) und trotzdem wäre mein Rat, das großzügig zu ignorieren. Es gibt eben diese Layer an Nutzern. Das ändert sich auch erstmal nicht.

90% denken ja auch mastodon.social wäre .

Gerade euch Urgesteinen und uns Nerds steht etwas Langmut gut 😉

To people complaining about the Nostr bridge today, (the one that's been here for years now) you DO know that there's no way to tell what anyone is doing with your public posts, right?

There's even a RSS feed that cannot be turned off for EVERY Mastodon account that anyone can read and you'd never even know...

If you want privacy, post privately. If you're posting publicly, you have no expectation of privacy.

Tippar at får minuspoeng pga. , og fordi det verkar litt sært når ein fyrst slår det opp.

Men eg er usikker på kva har som spesielt positive trekk. No er det så klart fordi så mange, tydeligvis, er der. Men kva med før det blei stort?

Eg tykkja Bluesky verka like sært som Mastodon før eg valte Mastodon.

Introducing . Hollo is an -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 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 in the content of your posts and you can quote another post.

Oh, and Hollo is built using and .

Not many people know this, but Mastodon has a built-in official post scheduling system which can publish posts at pre-arranged times and dates.

Unfortunately there's no official interface for the scheduler yet, so you have to use a third party app to access the scheduler. These third party apps let you use it:

I didn't like the idea of a HARD-CODED "/xrpc" path for Bluesky's API.

I also don't like the idea of HARD-CODED "/api/v1" path for the Fediverse, due to Mastodon's API.

Actually, I probably dislike the latter ("/api/v1") even more than the former ("/xrpc") since "/api/v1" is so common for web-based APIs in general.

Mona for iPhone has this feature "load remotely" that can be added as an icon to the post. I use it a lot, because I can see all the likes, shares and replies that there are supposed to be. In my browser I use a Chrome extension called Substitoot.

I'm wondering why can't this be the new default? There's probably a huge technical reason, but because it works seamlessly in some apps and extension, why can't it be reality in the core?

Other apps I launched:

🦊URL Passport: Check domain ownership details
🐙Octo Notes: Note-taking app for iPad with Pencil support
🤖Smart AI: Chat with local LLMs like Phi and Llama
🦊Kyoto Shrine Guide: A guide to Kyoto's shrines

Next month, I’m launching a new indie app about ✈️. Stay tuned!

Let it snow! ❄️

I have added snow to my instance during the winter holidays. It's a tiny JS canvas and fades out on scroll down. The snow is also respecting the system accessibility settings, it won't be there if you prefer reduced motion.

Here's the source code for server admins: github.com/ronilaukkarinen/mas
See the snow yourself: mementomori.social

I wish Mastodon handled ActivityStreams "type":"Video" as well as "type":"Note" with a Video attachment.

They could be rendered the same. But they (currently) aren't.

OK les admins d'instances Mastodon, il faut qu'on parle.

Je viens d'apprendre que, depuis la version 4.3.0 de Mastodon, enfin, vous pouvez choisir que votre instance respecte, par défaut, le thème de couleurs choisi dans le système d'exploitation des internautes.

Par conséquent, plutôt que de forcer un thème sombre ou clair, vous pouvez respecter notre choix. Ainsi, une personne qui consulte votre instance sans y avoir de compte verra ses préférences prises en compte.

Il s'agit d'un besoin d'accessibilité.

Hé non, le thème sombre forcé par défaut n'est pas une bonne idée.
Il y a des gens qui ne peuvent pas lire les textes sur fond sombre. Et, il n'existe pas d'extension de navigateur pour transformer un site sombre vers un site clair (l'inverse est vrai, par contre !).

Pouvez-vous activer ça sur vos instances s'il vous plaît ?
Allez, c'est Noël, offrez-nous un peu d'accessibilité 🥺

> welcome to The Mastodon Network™ Development Process, itsfoss!

There are so many poor engineering decisions leading to this problem. But it could be worse; each client could generate its own unique link preview, instead of each server creating one for the people using it.

Maybe this points to a solution for @Gargron and co? What if the account posting the link generated the link preview, and sent it as part of the post metadata?

📚 Mastodon History

Back in February 23rd, 2016 — Mastodon first described itself as:

“Mastodon is a federated microblogging engine. An alternative implementation of the GNU Social project.”

The history of Mastodon is tied to GNU Social.

github.com/mastodon/mastodon/b

github.com/mastodon/mastodon/t

Mastodon

Mastodon is a federated microblogging engine. An alternative implementation of the GNU Social project. Based on ActivityStreams, Webfinger, PubsubHubbub and Salmon.

The core ideals of this project are:

• Independence of legacy Twitter APIs - we don't want to be compatible with Twitter clients, we want our own clients
• In that vein, a strong and clean REST API and OAuth2
• Minimalism. Just because you can do almost anything with ActivityStreams doesn't mean you should. Limit the set of possible functions to what makes sense in a microblogging engine. This will make federation as well as UI design a lot easier
• Ease of deployment. The end-goal of this project is to be distributable as a Docker image.

Current status of the project is early development. Documentation, licensing information &co will be added later

Mastodon.social alt text analysis report! 🧐

Me and my friend Cristal just published a report on image description usage on mastodon.social, as a group project for the Introduction to Data Science course of the Artificial Intelligence and Sustainable Societies Erasmus Mundus Joint Master program.

Thoughts and feedback are welcome 💕

A huge thanks to @stefan for publishing the dataset on which we based our analysis!

NOTE: We are absolutely aware that the report has very little actual relevance, as the dataset contains a super limited amount of posts from one instance only. It was mainly an experimentation to test our data analysis skills.

[email protected]" and a button labeled "Go"] Don't have an account yet? [link labeled "Create account"] Top screenshot, current version: the notice contains a long explanation: Reply to Stefan Bohacek's post With an account on Mastodon, you can respond to this post. You are not logged in to this server. Where is your account hosted? [input field labeled with "Domain of your home server, e.g. mastodon.social"] [button labeled with "Take me home"] Tip: That's the website where you signed up. If you don't remember, look for the welcome e-mail in your inbox. You can also enter your full username! (e.g. @[email protected]) Not on Mastodon? Create account
