test answer with the same text as the direct answer to @DaveDiamond's comment. In this case as an answer to the original post to see how this behaves on the diaspora side of the fediverse.


thx @ dldnh @ mastodon.social !

added to the image as alt text by editing and simply copy/pasting.
this is a #friendica acount so it's time to check how this looks like on #mastodon. 🤔

this post appears on #diaspora* too so with some work your #alt4you will show up over there, example (magnetlink):

Unter #UnisinsFediverse versuchen wir möglichst viel öffentlichen Druck aufzubauen, damit die Hochschulen endlich X verlassen und stattdessen die sozialen Medien im #Fediverse nutzen. Teil der Kampagne ist eine Petition:

https://www.openpetition.de/petition/online/appell-an-die-hochschulrektorenkonferenz-zur-nutzung-sozialer-medien

Jede Unterstützung zählt: Unterschriften, weiterverbreiten, mit Uni-Leitungen reden und sie überzeugen Musk den Rücken zu kehren und das Fediverse zu unterstützen!

Fediverse report - Op het strand


There needs to be consequences for getting lots of downvotes.

One of those could be something like this, where everyone can see that you get downvoted a lot and decide whether and how to engage with you in future.

Inspired by https://nickpunt.com/blog/deescalating-social-media/, I've added a function to #PieFed so authors can acknowledge their mistakes and de-escalate difficult discussions.

I'm committed to building a happier & healthier social media. Read more at https://join.piefed.social/

Frage | Friendica: Was tun in Sachen Bildbeschreibung bei etwas umfangreicheren Bildergalerien?


Ich hatte schon ein paar Mal das Problem das ich bei Beiträgen mit umfangreicheren Bildermaterial (z. B. gerade 18 Bilder) in Sachen Bildbeschreibung an meine Grenzen gestoßen bin. Ich habe das beim letzten Mal so gelöst, dass ich die Bilderfolge im Text beschrieben und in der Bildbeschreibung auf diese Beschreibung verwiesen habe.

Habt Ihr eine Idee wie man das besser hin bekommt. Den das alles jedes mal ausführlich in der Bildbescherung und im Text zu beschreiben ist ziemlich nervig. Genauso wie es nervig ist einen Syntaxfehler in den Bildern zu finden wenn man was falsch gemacht oder übersehen hat.

Why do people from other servers, send moderation reports to me (admin of this server) for spaming users from other servers.

So user of server A reports users of server B to me on server C?
Maybe A=B, but what can I do about that?

Honestly, the way #Threads is evolving right now, I can absolutely understand why so many Mastodon instances are already blocking Threads before it becomes part of the #Fediverse.

For over a year now, I've known how social media can be and how social it really could be. In less than two weeks Threads has managed to become a brown swamp of anger and hate speech.

If this hits the Fediverse, then all the moderators' work over the last few years will have been for nothing.

Threads is simply turning into a racist, trans-hostile, homophobic swamp due to a lack of moderation.

As a moderator of my Mastodon instance, I was one of the few who was against blocking threads directly without having seen anything of it. Now I would very much vote in favour. (And I'm glad we voted for the block already together with the community)

A lot really needs to happen for Threads to earn a place in the Fediverse. If it will ever happen. (Doubt)


I have noticed some strange behavior and would like to confirm it here if anyone experienced it too.

When you create post, that waits for federating to servers and edit it before it reaches #Mastodon server (not sure if it happens to other #Fediverse instances too), then the post never reaches target instance (or target instance rejects it?)

Is it just me, or it's some kind of bug (or expected behavior)?

puzzle



Does mastodon or any other #fediverse platform support post through SMS? It would be useful in situations where internet connectivity is down like during the recent rains in chennai.


Looks like the #threadiverse has been widely used by the #Lemmy and #Kbin communities for years, but now it's slowly being co-opted (including by #Meta staff) to refer to the #federation of #Threads.

I predict a complete takeover of the #hashtag, and term in general, before the end of 2024.

Embrace, extend and extinguish. That's was the strategy behind Google's adoption of the open protocol #XMPP, which eventually died from it. And it will be the strategy when Facebook attempts to extinguish the #fediverse via #threads https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embrace,_extend,_and_extinguish For at longer story and analysis, read here: https://ploum.net/2023-06-23-how-to-kill-decentralised-networks.html


Is there already some meetup in planning for the Fediverse at 37c3?

Gibt es schon Pläne für einen FediTreff auf dem 37c3?

Fine, #Fediverse, you got my attention, what's the recent deal with frogs and slapping ponds?



#Streams is taking care of #DefederateMeta by raising walls against #Threads dev-side, and the main man behind it is giving advice on how to raise them further.

You don't see stuff like this happen in the #Fediverse often.

Streams



While I am an active critic of distributed privatisation (i.e., #Fediverse as we know it), I will still choose that over corporate privatisation if public service internet is just not a thing yet. Why?

• Corporations under capitalism have but one guiding tenet: the profit motive.

• Social media corporations profit from advertisement operations — especially data harvesting.

• It is their objective, therefore, to maximise profits by maximising data exploitation in every possible way.

Resist.


Federating with a surveillance capitalist doesn’t make you a surveillance capitalist, it just means that surveillance capitalism isn’t a deal breaker for you.

Content warning: Speculation about Meta's game.


Rachel Lambert, Director of Product Management at Meta just posted about working with the #fediverse

"looking forward to ... conversations with the Fediverse community about how we can build seamless experiences for features like polls, voice notes, tags (ideas welcome)"

"Working with experts to figure out how we can reshape regulations that are built for closed systems, and adapt them to more open ones"

via https://www.threads.net/@rklambo/post/C01_IcuRJYZ


Very worried by how people who have spent years building alternatives are suddenly saying federation with Meta is a good idea.

Why are they trusting them? Why aren't they just telling them to eff off?

Are they just dazzled by money? It's really disappointing. 😞

#Threads #Fediverse


#Threads joining the #Fediverse doesn't give them access to data they couldn't harvest through other means.


*glances at the TL of this #Fediverse developer of the past 24 hours*

So, huh, something's up with Meta's Threads, huh?

I'm cautiously optimistic about #threads. It's like the US & the Soviet Union during WW2. the #fediverse is not perfect but they are much worse, and this might help us kill #xitter. we must keep our eyes on them. ultimately, the focus has to be on all the users and the world. to give the people on both platforms an option outside of advertising, data mining and algorithms controlled by other people. but here, to balance free expression and a welcoming experience. to advance #AttentionDemocracy


#followerpower #fediverse

what do we have to do to make the #ActivityPub plugin attractive to more #WordPress users? We are currently at 4000+ active users on WordPress.org + the WordPress.com users.


Almost everyone who says "Mastodon didn't work for me" on Bluesky seems to have posted only "me me me" stuff for months (if that) on Mastodon, followed about 10-20 people, never replied to anyone and then gave up because "nobody there, it didn't fly".

It seems there is a big misunderstanding how this free and healthy social media works. We are not here for the easy wins, likes, shares and dopamine spikes. We are here because we accept the fact we are not part of the commercial hype machine. We choose natural engagement over spoiling algorithms, we choose conversation and meaning in our social media. At least that is how I see it.
