Started to write a blog post about metalhead.club t-shirts and quickly realized that I don't have the energy to find proper words right now 😅.

My plan is to describe what considerations I made and which parts I use for my t-shirt "business". So others feel inspired and might sell instance merch, too! 😁

I think t-shirts are a great advertising space for Fediverse instances. 👌

Question for fedi experts. What are the benefits of hosting your own instance?

janettespeyer,
@janettespeyer@flipboard.social avatar

@shellsharks thanks. You build an excellent case. If you are a company you almost “have to” own your own instance

Sounds like I’m shadow-banned on mastodon.social too.

So there’s that.

I really need to write something about why having mega instances on the fediverse is a problem that’s longer than a toot.

Probably a good time for a post on the subject given I now have about the same number of people following me here as I did when I closed my Twitter account.

(It took close to eight years to get there.)

Deadman, (edited ) to lemmy

How do I use this account on lemmy and vice-versa?
Is the upvote of lemmy the same as favorite of mastodon? (they do not sync) if not then what metric are these two uniquely gauged?

    @Deadman

    Couple thoughts, because I read some common misunderstandings

    1. The Fediverse is a broad, generic concept like "democracy"

    No one is running "Fediverse" anywhere or is homed on a "Fediverse" instance

    1. is a protocol, a specification if you will

    It must be implemented in a specific software distribution (to varying degrees of accuracy) to exist

    Again, no one is running "ActivityPub" anywhere or is homed on an "ActivityPub" instance

    1. "Viewing content from other , one needs to follow a profile from that instance"

    and

    "Explicitly viewing instance content, user needs to sign up on their instance"

    No

    I can go to your instance in a web browser, to /public/local/ and read the public posts on your specific instance

    Here: https://mstdn.social/public/local

    But no, I cannot see anyone's Home feed unless I follow that person, or follow hashtags which we use and Follow in common

    Which is the only reason I saw your post in the first place, the hashtag

    Who can see my posts? I am super curious as to how far this can travel? Learning the is interesting but a tad confusing for the laypeople like me. If anyone has an analogy do share. Visualizations help.

    FinchHaven,
    @FinchHaven@sfba.social avatar

    @janettespeyer

    Here's a hint

    From my moderately-sized instance on the Left Coast of the US, for the hashtags you've used

    45 people in the past 2 days

    263 people in the past 2 days

    451 people in the past 2 days

    6 people in the past 2 days

    4 people in the past 2 days

    So these are the numbers of people who --> could <-- have seen the hashtags you've used, hashtags being the primary way people find posts from people they don't know

    OK: this all depends on if they're --> following <-- those hashtags (which I guess being included in this stat would imply) and if they're paying any attention to them

    I don't know what this tells you, but that's a pretty good number of people from the times I've looked up hashtag traffic in the past

    Quelle instance francophone choisir sur Mastodon ?
    Demande de conseils/tuyaux 😊

    Quand je suis arrivé sur Mastodon il ya un peu plus d'un an maintenant, je n'y connaissais strictement rien et j'ai ouvert un compte sur la première instance que j'ai trouvée où j'ai pu le faire, en l'occurrence mastodon.social.

    maegul, to threads
    @maegul@hachyderm.io avatar

    So, with genuine curiosity, where's the line between staying on a fediverse that federates with Threads and going back to Xitter?

    Sure mastodon/AP is open etc ... but there's a plausible future point where Threads/Meta is so dominant, in a similar way to how mastodon.social is now, that it unquestionable shapes the culture and policies of mainstream mastodon.

    It's not like we own our profiles/data here.

    So, is there a line and what does it look like?

    trekman10,
    @trekman10@union.place avatar

    @flatchulancelot @maegul you can help make that happen! If you see a Threads user that's breaking your instances rules, you should report it to your moderation.
    Also, to prevent hostility within mastodon, people who want to be on that block Meta/Threads shouldn't be derided. The way Federation works, there is no reason to demand people defederate from instances that choose to allow Threads

    jerry, to random

    To those leaving due to my “heavy handed”, “ethically questionable,” and “morally bankrupt” decision to let people decide whether to interact with Threads: I am sorry it didn’t work out.

    To people on instances who will soon block me/us because I did not block Threads, thanks for being there, I wish you all well.

    @expert@attractive.space avatar

    @jerry it's stupid to block . Literally.

    You can limit it, yeah, to prevent scam bots interact with you. But to block?

    I fucking hate . People are stupidly block instances/servers that just did a good decision. Or have a very good community.

    Just 'cause someone doesn't blocks Threads, doesn't mean you should . Why to block?

    It's , folks. Why do you constantly destroying it by defederating from good ???

    I really don't get it.

    Flipboard has begun testing ActivityPub federation of user accounts (flipboard.com)

    Mike McCue - Hello Fediverse. I'm posting this tonight from my federated Flipboard profile! We're now testing our #ActivityPub integration starting with my account.

    Can you actually PeerTube from other ? As a Kbin user, I can see both Lemmy threads and Mastodon microblogs and I know Mastodon users can tag Lemmy (and maybe also Kbin) magazines to make threads there. Is there a way to interact with PeerTube like that?

    hello !

    We're the George Lansbury Memorial Trust, set up in 2012 to commemorate the life of George Lansbury; the life-long campaigner for social justice.

    George started life as a radical Liberal, became a socialist in the early 1890s & joined the Social Democratic Federation, Independent Labour Party, and then finally a Labour MP in 1922, leading the Party in the early 1930s.

    We organise events and promote his legacy

    Stuff have dropped X as a platform. Good move. But what's the natural replacement, or should we be looking back to lightweight self-published platform agnostic solutions like RSS? Thinking about this for all businesses or organisations who have a need to publish articles.

    @gurubob leaving "X" can create their own . Is that enough?

Fwiw, i often can't help having a sly little smirk at my own private push-back against these *phobes... as much as possible, i eschew youtube, & instead use [ & actually morally decent, afaict]. You can pick your preferred here; https://docs.invidious.io/instances/ ... & personally i favour https://yewtu.be/ but ESPECIALLY [for its "one in your eye, phobes!] url symbolism; https://inv.citw.lgbt/ 😄 🤭
