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....
I'm mostly at my standalone GoToSocial server these days. I tried migrating this account again, and this time I figured out the problem: I'd misconfigured my server's proxy settings and everything was getting rate limited.
So next time it should finish - but I have to wait another 29 days for the cooldown. Meanwhile, if you'd like to see what I'm up to lately, feel free to follow me at @kelson
Would you let these Copilot+ Windows PCs into your business? History tells us that cyber criminals will find a way to breach security and access this Recall data. It has to be decrypted for the user to access it. And we all know that users accounts never get compromised. What could possibly go wrong? 🤦🏻♂️ https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cpwwqp6nx14o
@ianRobinson No, I would not. But they are going to come in, people I work with will use them, and thus we are all compromised. Just like we used to get spam just from being stored in a hacked relative's Outlook email address book. Except now it is all of your communications, data others hold about you. All to train the great AI. Maybe security by obscurity is better here on #mastodon, just put the email pipe down.
Anyone have an email sig we can at least pre-shame people with?
In its justification, it commits itself to the principles of the #Fediverse and #OpenScience:
"Freie Universität Berlin has been present on Mastodon since December 2022. #Mastodon is part of the decentralized Fediverse network. Compared to large commercial social networks, Mastodon relies on chronological feeds and reduces the algorithmic sorting of posts. This ensures that information is always openly available and reduces the likelihood of so-called filter bubbles forming."
Ein weiteres forschungspolitisches Schwergewicht, das sich vor kurzem von X/Twitter verabschiedet hat, ist die All European Academy, ALLEA, ein Zusammenschluss von Akademien der Wissenschaften und ähnlichen Einrichtungen in Europa. https://allea.org/allea-ceases-activities-on-x-twitter/
Sie begründete das so:
„Unser Engagement für die akademische Freiheit und die Wissenschaft als globales öffentliches Gut steht im Mittelpunkt unserer Aktivitäten, und die derzeitige Politik von X steht nicht im Einklang mit unserem Auftrag.“ https://twitter.com/ALLEA_academies/status/1737751876521607295
Auf Mastodon ist sie aktiv unter: https://eupolicy.social/@ALLEA
In der Begründung bekennt sie sich zu den Grundsätzen des #Fediverse und #OpenScience:
„Seit Dezember 2022 ist die Freie Universität Berlin auf Mastodon vertreten. #Mastodon ist Teil des dezentralen Fediverse-Netzwerks. Im Vergleich zu großen kommerziellen sozialen Netzwerken setzt Mastodon auf chronologische Feeds und reduziert die algorithmische Sortierung von Beiträgen. Dies sorgt dafür, dass Informationen jederzeit offen zur Verfügung stehen und verringert die Wahrscheinlichkeit, dass sich sogenannte Filterblasen bilden.“
