posted yesterday on Spoutible about my plan to leave... today all my posts on the site are just completely missing (???)

is a mess.

I posted this today, and this time I took a screenshot.

Won't be long now. Fedi FTW.

Planning to delete my account.

Strike 1: helmed by a ONE guy with complete control of everything. Not federated. Same w/ Counter Social, btw. even if he is "a 1337 hacker"

Strike 2: The "leaky API" fiasco that popped up recently. Wow.

Strike 3: Logged on and the entire first page was full of posts by "investors" - not even people I follow. HARD PASS.

I wish them all the best of luck, but I won't be sticking around.

Fedi all the whey 🧀

Trying to follow the news today from my instance reminds me that not a lot gets to here because my instance is tiny. I made a tool for that, though. It's a Web app called the Big Search. You can use it too! It's free and ad-free at https://mastogizmos.com/bmhs.html . 1/5

‼️ If you have your account linked to your Mastodon or Bluesky account, you need to take action to revoke those access tokens.

Mastodon > Preferences > Account > Authorized Apps > Spoutible
Bluesky > Settings > Advanced > App Passwords

Audit and revoke anything else you're not using anymore, while you're at it.

Stay safe, friends!

Such reports have become more frequent recently. Of course, #web #security is not just simple, but as a provider you should, in my opinion, test it officially to maintain #trust – is #spoutible professional?

«Twitter alternative spouts a massive #leak: Spoutible’s #API coughed up #password's, #2FA info, and tokens that could let attackers take over anyone’s #account

hey so if you have a account you need to immediately scroll to the end of this post, take the four steps listed, and then read the whole post. a vulnerability that was just fixed made it possible for an attacker to take complete control of your account without you getting any kind of notification.

Catching up on some conversations I missed on Spoutible - I see some discussion from the organization that they have no plans to support authentication with all Mastodon servers, just a chosen few.

There seems to be a misunderstanding of how API authentication and tokens work on the platform. But I'm not about to step into that conversation, because I myself have questioned it!

https://spoutible.com/thread/23653666

Another screenshot of a Christopher Bouzy "spout", replying to a question about how authentication works on Mastodon servers. He states "We need to provide the authentication process and tokens for each server. We do not store user's passwords; we use tokens. Each server has it's own process and tokens."

In other alternative socials news, Spoutible gives a short demo of their upcoming "Pods" feature, which is similar to Twitter Spaces (live audio conversations). An extended public demo is expected this Friday.

, one of the many platforms that emerged after Elon set Twitter on fire, has introduced cross-platform posting to

Christopher Bouzy, the company’s CEO, made the announcement from his account on December 3rd, 2023.

I was only using ONE platform, but recently added one. It's just as easy to CUT-PASTE to another place as to use a Cross-Posting third Platform. Not sure I'm sold, but perhaps others are interested/

will be adding "Pods", an audio live streaming feature, in the new year, with a live demonstration planned next week.

This is something near and dear to the CEO as he often uses Twitter Spaces to hold public forums.

FYI, the fediverse does have something similar, but it's not well known and has recently been shelved. Would be great to see someone pick this up again. Check out Audon.

The software setting of is now a dropdown menu. Currently only for mastodon.social and mastodon.online.

Maybe it's temporary but if it's not, they'll have to add at least a hundred reputable and popular servers. Also, it's Mastodon software only. There are far more software, older and/or better than Mastodon which will probably not get support, at least as far as the approach I am seeing.

Since they are only adding cross-posting support, it should be fine to add support for other software like and , to mention a few.

Still, what I want to see is for Spoutible to federate with the network as well as network (a.k.a. ).

is knocking on 's door with an initial cross posting test with mastodon.social only. Only text posts (no media attachments or polls(?)) are sent over.

This post was created in Spoutible, then cross posted to and Mastodon.

Spoutible offers investment opportunities to users, raises almost $250,000 in a day. Some users didn’t realize it was an investment, thought it was a donation…

Has Mastodon ever raised $250,000 in a day? How do we make that happen?

The new : (formerly ) just announced that they are shutting down the free service this coming November 1st.

--start-of-quote--

The painful truth, however, is that we were not growing quickly enough for investors to believe that we will break out. Combine that with a crowded space of alternatives - and the uphill climb is even steeper. In order to continue to build out a complete Pebble, we would have needed more investment, and more time.

Everyone on the platform is now sharing their (mostly ), , and links.

Still wondering, are the familiar user interface and this certain "exclusiveness" (via invite) the only traits that attract people to join Bluesky? I mean it's so incomplete it blows my mind.

@rolle Because it was spearheaded by none other than Jack Dorsey.

One the Twitter founders & former CEO making something new after forcing Musk to OVERpay? Yeah, i don't know. is a horrible place.
I want a Twitter alternative, NOT ANOTHER .

There's + tons of other options within . Also there's , which i find quite interesting. So many features & it's only 8 months old.
