Exactly two years ago, we started to post links on #Mastodon via our account @heiseonline 👇

https://mastodon.social/@heiseonline/109314036284496776

It took longer, than I expected, but here we are: it seems like this account now brings continuously more #traffic to heise.de than #X (#Twitter) in its entirety, although it only has Âź of the follower number (and many of them don't seem to be active anymore).
I'll prepare some graphs after the weekend.

#Fediverse


Vorerst ist das hier der offizielle Mastodon-Account von heise online.
Wird jetzt erst einmal händisch befßllt, aber wir haben schon weitergehende Pläne und wollen hier mehr machen.


Another week, another increase for @heiseonline

#Mastodon keeps growing (the last time, we got this much #traffic, was at the beginning of the year), #Bluesky, too. No big jumps, but we'll see, where it leads.
#Threads still brings very little, #Twitter stays weak.

As always, this is the traffic to heise.de via the different social media platforms.

Edit: In the graph, Mastodon, Bluesky and Threads are stacked together (as they are they biggest Twitter-alternatives).

2nd Edit: Graph added.

Graph showing traffic to heise.de via different micro blogging platforms, Mastodon with a little increase.
Another graph, showing all the sources of traffic individually.


The first release candidate of #Mastodon 4.3 is ready! We expect this to very soon become the stable release, but if you encounter anything unexpected, please open a GitHub issue! This is also the last opportunity to submit translations for new and changed strings in CrowdIn.

E2EE for the Fediverse Update - We're Going Post-Quantum


Towards Federated Key Transparency


I think it's going to be more important than ever that #Mastodon and the #fediverse are not centrally operated out of the US unlike almost every other social media platform out there.


@jdp23 @dalias @Gargron According to @MostFollowed by @stefan, the top 3 most followed #Fediverse accounts by #Mastodon users are:

🥇 @Mastodon
🥈 @espn (on #Flipboard!)
🥉 @mosseri (on #Threads)

👉🏾 Mastodon Most Followed: https://most-followed-mastodon-accounts.stefanhayden.com/

I find it interesting that beta testing accounts on Flipboard & Threads are in the top three.


We are looking for a new member for our #Mastodon core team to work with @Gargron, @renchap and @Claire on building the Mastodon #backend and web app!

This is a #remote #fulltime position and requires an overlap with the CET timezone.

Ideally:

- You are a #Ruby expert
- With prior experience in maintaining #opensource projects
- Prior knowledge of #ActivityPub is a big plus!

The #Mastodon stuffed toy is now sold out in the EU (but a 100 units are reserved for the UK). The US ones are technically ready to ship now but we still need to do some administrative work before we can start selling them. Sorry!

On the two year anniversary of joining #Mastodon I'm super proud to share:

I'm building a public Autospam detection service that will be compatible with Pixelfed, Mastodon and other projects!

I'm leveraging my expertise* in Autospam, along with my 3 year old dataset to build the best fediverse Akismet alternative.

Are you interested? Boosts appreciated!

Hey there 👋

If you have any questions about how to use Mastodon or the rest of the Fediverse, it is totally fine to ask! I'm an actual human being here, and I'll try to help answer any questions if I can!

I didn't set up this account to be one-directional or mass audience, it's meant to be about helping people directly. 🙂

Pour ce qui est de BLOQUER les puants je ne vois pas très bien comment!...
Sur #Mastodon social en ponctuel, sinon #Odysee (films, politique...) hors censure. Les 2 sont clean cĂ´tĂŠ trackers.

Why do I get #mastodon update nagging in email when I'm at the latest release? 😩


@heluecht

Gibt es eine offizielle Beschreibung, wie #Pleroma und #Misskey das handhaben? Oder Reverse Engineering? ActivityPub scheint mir dies nämlich nicht vorzusehen.

Und bzgl. Umfragen... da interpretiert #Mastodon auch etwas anders. Mit #Mammuthus habe ich auch das auch so umgesetzt. #Friendica bei eingehenden Umfragen auch im Mastodon-Stil? Oder anders?

@bullerich @skeptiker


Wie schon gesagt, das "Informationssystem" von #Friendica ist doch um Welten besser, als das von #Mastodon.
Allerdings muss ich sagen, ist Friendica doc recht schwer zu bedienen. Aber da muss man halt durch. Ich denke, es lohnt sich.


Why this bloody #mastodon interface cannot pull in public comments for a toot hosted somewhere else? I have the toot locally, I do not have the answers!
It is really annoying to "go to the original site" but then I cannot comment; had to copy the bloody URL, search for it, and pull manually?
Isn't there? Any? Automatic? Way?
Please be?

@FediTips


Ich folge hier #Gruppen, in denen es um das (Brot-)Backen geht. Allerdings sehe ich hier auf #Friendica nicht viele Beiträge, obwohl es wesentlich mehr gibt. Das lässt sich auf #Mastodon leicht gegenchecken. Wieso?

I have a :crow: custom emoji listed and enabled but #mastodon has some magical dance to make it work which I possibly missed.


Do you think an average #Mastodon user with a couple hundred followers could post a silly #poll to the #Fediverse, and get a million or more votes in 7 days?

Please boost to widen the sample. 😉

#polls

  • Yes (33%, 276 votes)
  • No (66%, 538 votes)
814 voters. Poll end: 7 months ago


Il y a pas longtemps, un.e ami.e m'a dit que #mastodon, c'est pour les anarcho-capitalistes. @davidrevoy @Framasoft @AllanBarte et @commownfr vont ĂŞtre ravi.e.s de l'apprendre. :blob_grinning_sweat:


Mich nervt die ganze Diskussion um Threads.

ActivityPub ist ein offenes Protokoll und jeder kann mitmachen.

Dann sollen die Admins der jeweiligen Instanzen bitte auch die diversen Mailanbieter für die Registrierung neuer Accounts sperren. Ist im Prinzip das gleiche. Große Konzerne die fragwürdig mit den Daten umgehen. Macht aber NIEMAND! Selbst wenn man eigene Mailserver betreibt, käme niemand auf die Idee Gmail zu sperren.....

Dear @Gargron,

A fediverse server called Threads is violating mastodon.social’s second server rule:

“2. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia…
Transphobic behavior such as intentional misgendering and deadnaming is strictly prohibited.”

https://glaad.org/smsi/report-meta-fails-to-moderate-extreme-anti-trans-hate-across-facebook-instagram-and-threads/

Can you please defederate from this server to protect the trans people on mastodon.social?

Thank you.

PS. It’s run by these guys: https://techcrunch.com/2024/03/26/facebook-secret-project-snooped-snapchat-user-traffic/

#mastodonSocial #fediblock #threads #meta #mastodon #transphobia


Mastodon.social rolling out the red carpet for Threads is like an independent shop inviting a supermarket to set up next door.

But what’s done is done. And I’ve wasted enough words on this whole sorry affair over the last year.

So this is the last you’ll hear about it from me. When, eventually, you’re writing your “what went wrong?” articles, feel free to look up what I’d written on the issue back when.

#threads #mastodon #mastodonSocial #zuckerberg #facebook #meta #fediverse


I created an account on the Fediverse
*because* it is not Facebook,
*because* it is different,
*because* it is better,
*because* it doesn’t have ads,
*because* it is more respectful of its users,
*because* it doesn’t have an algorithm deciding what I see,
and *because* is has much better ethics and moderation.

I really hope it stays that way :facebook: :nes_fire:

We started this account less than 6 months ago. It's going pretty well – thanks to you: 4.2k followers, lots of interactions, questions, and comments. 🎉

A couple of weeks ago, the European Broadcasting Union (#EBU) asked us to write a guest article about our experience with #Mastodon / the #Fediverse, explain the basics, and point out the advantages. :mastodon:

Challenge accepted. 👍

So here's the finished post by @lxplm, hot off the #blog press. ⌨️

We provide Mastodon/Peertube/Nextcloud/Friendica and more, as a service. For a cost. Just order and have your own instance, no headaches.

I always do trade-free stuff, but since I am trapped in this trade-system and I do not get enough financial support via the projects that I do, I have to also trade a bit.

WebApe https://webape.site/ is what I do to trade. Basically we create websites, install Mastodon/Friendica instances, Peertube, Nextcloud, etc.. We setup, manage, update, customize.

We try to do something decent and make some money with that, to then support our free projects.

So if you want a Mastodon instance for example, or any other website/service, please see https://webape.site/. I have lowered the prices now, so a Mastodon instance starts at 30 Euros per month.

We will take a limited amount of websites so to not overwhelm ourselves.

Please share if you think others might be interested. In a way, we can make the fediverse more known and accessible via the WebServices that we provide.
