Fediverse

Yes. When the reply is posted to C, it is sent to A. A then sends as:Announce to C, as well as any other communities that follow it. B seems to be irrelevant here.

Tell me about it! There are some very cool people (i.e. thisismissem@hachyderm.io) working on content classification and tagging so that the burden of filtering out this kind of content isn’t borne by server admins directly.

snoopy@jlai.lu personally, since I create AP enabled software I am on the side of votes being public data. We already have enough issues with votes being out of sync with each other. Mixing in private voting is just asking for trouble. Emoji reactions are neat, although niche to those softwares that utilise it. They allow for greater expression which is nice. They’re useless for deriving value (for ranking purposes) unless you assign value to them.

Does anyone remember way before Google had image recognition technology, the time they built a game that paired up random people on the internet, showed them each an image, and waited for them to both guess the same keyword? It was gamified human powered taxonomy for meaningless internet points and it was hilarious (at the time.)

Very interesting article! I have immense respect for jerry@infosec.exchange, he was one of the first people I found on the fediverse, and it’s no wonder why, he’s revered quite highly by others as being a generous and kind admin. I do want to point out one thing, and that is that Mastodon has some design decisions that make it rather resource and storage intensive. There are oodles of lighter software out there, some with even more features than Mastodon, and some with less. For example, snac.bsd.cafe (https://snac.bsd.cafe/) runs on Snac, which is fast as hell. I am going to guess that a not insignificant portion of Jerry’s bill is caching assets. Mastodon likes to save everything it encounters, videos, images, avatars, everything… forever (though I imagine this is customisable). Most likely the assets are viewed a handful of times in one day and never seen again… but you’ll pay to store it forever!

Thanks! It’s something that I personally feel is more performant and future proof for other important things like private discussions (which Mastodon also doesn’t support natively yet — mention spamming doesn’t count.)

There’s NodeBB if you want a forum/BBS style UX for the threadiverse!

For what it’s worth your blog does show up fine in NodeBB as well. Perhaps you are missing the @context property and so Mastodon is refusing to parse it?

m_f@discuss.online not directly, but there was a session at FediForum on Thursday that discussed the website and next steps for updating it. It’s been stagnant for quite awhile but evan@cosocial.ca and j12t@j12t.social finally have write access to the repo and control of the domain.

Hey deadsuperhero@lemmy.world have you tried updating to the latest NodeBB? You can post to Lemmy communities from there too!

pineapplelover@lemm.ee you can only access by entering a semantically correct invocation of tar as run on a POSIX box from 1978.

I would say that Pixelfed is closer to the microblog space than it is the threaded discussion space. It’s essentially microblogging except with an image media focus (or video, in the case of Loops.) To each their own, some people communicate better using pictures, some better over short text, some better over long-form text. There’s a space for them all
