Openvibe now fully supports both Nostr and Mastodon protocols! 🌐📲
Experience seamless crossposting and a unified timeline for all your social interactions 🐙
@openvibe as soon as I saw this post I decided to immediately install and test your app. Unfortunately, it didn't stay on my phone for too long, but I don't rule out not coming back. There are a few basic features that are missing for me, including the ability to separate timelines for different accounts, as well as the ability to plug in several accounts from the same platform. Other than that, the app looks really great and I would love to use it if the features I mentioned earlier, as well as the ones you yourselves have already mentioned in the thread, were added.
Hi people of #Mastodon Good Day 💖 Hope you all are staying hydrated & drinking enough glasses of water 🥺🙏🏼 Guys, I can't stand-up nor walk properly due to an accident happened in my foot 😭 I'm very down and helpless 😢 If there is anyone there that could help me out even just for getting food for my cats, I would gladly appreciate it 🙏🏼🥺 Please..
I'd like to use a workflow where each #Mastodon message that gets bookmarked by me is automatically screenshotted to PNG, archived in a local directory and its text content + image descriptions get added to a text file (preferably #orgdown) together with a link to the screenshot and the original message URL.
@publicvoit i felt a little like hacking so i started on the toot > org item bit, but you'd have to tell me how you want the items organized. so far i did headline: CW or timestamp, content (rendered), then URL, then plan to do alt-text(s). no draws or anything so far.
It is annoying in #mastodon to still keep missing a lot of interesting posts by people in my list, which live in an almost specular time zone. although I have put them in dedicated lists, if I forget to check them regularly, their stuff is just lost to me.
So the only thing is to click on the 🔔 for each of such profiles. That however messes up with the notifications.
ffff....
@franco_vazza i think an algorithmic feed that populates with very granular settings, that could be turned on then turned off at will, would be great and help with these issues. i’ve started trying to sort via lists too, but lists aren’t available on the main Mastodon app on mobile so… 🤷♂️ (i also often forget to check the lists when on laptop browsing!)
It's been a minute, #Mastodon Alright, I wrote a lil post for the #Obsidian forum on my crusade against #Dataview (not literally; it's a great #plugin ) Here's the link if any are interested:
@apolaine Could you expand on what you mean by that? I'm guessing that you are using it more as a supplement than a main component, which I think is wonderful, but if you could give me an example of how you go about that I would love to see it.
@spinecracker sure. So I try to populate properties/metadata in the YAML for notes that I know I’m going want to interrogate in future. I don’t really keep a proper PKM but for my coaching notes I always have date, coachee name, etc. Then I can use a small a Dataview snippet to list out all the previous sessions in my current session note, so I can quickly check back during sessions.
UI differences are a big factor in the success/failure of decentralised federation of diverse platforms and content
And this seems a good example: bridged #mastodon posts onto #BlueSky which has a lower character limit than Mastodon.
So, just like #lemmy posts on mastodon, you don't get the full content of the post (which ends with an abrupt ellipsis here) and have to take a link to the original platform.
However powerful the underlying protocols, this isn't far from screenshots.
It is very clear #mastodon will become like all the other corporate social medias, it is already happening as Mastodon social is following in Musk and Zuckerberg’s censorship shoes.
@LALegault While I have my own criticisms of Mastodon as part of the Fediverse, I don’t really see this as being an outcome. If you release a federated, open source platform that people can run themselves however they want, you kind of can’t really put the genie back in the bottle.
As far as the whole “censorship vs moderation” debate is concerned, any instance is free to set and uphold any policy they want. Sometimes, their moderation team will fuck up, or choose the wrong option based on a limited context. That’s not exactly the same thing as what a corporate, centralized system with millions of users does when it blocks someone’s ability to be Heard.
