@BeAware@social.beaware.live

Former #Twitch :twitch: and #Kick :kick: streamer. I post a LOT of #AIart with the assistance of #midjourney. I am your typical hippie and :weed: smoker. Follow me for a variety of topics like #gaming; comments and opinions on tech news; World news opinions; occasional self-loathing and #depression messages. VERY #ADHD. Sometimes my thoughts aren't organized. If this isn't your thing, just keep moving, or block, I really don't care :) #fedi22 tfr

It's kinda sad when "trust issues" are seen as an issue that a singular person has when it's literally other people that cause it...mine continue to get reinforced more and more every day unfortunately.🤷‍♂️

Don't 100% trust anybody, cause even if you're 99.9% sure they won't screw you over/ghost you/lie to you, that .01% will probably bite you in the ass...

I have one IRL friend that hasn't and I'm 30 years old. With the amount of friends I've lost; it'd take a lifetime of the opposite experience to prove to me otherwise unfortunately, and that feeling sucks.

This. Is. Amazing. and is also exactly what I predicted would happen.

The majority of the will be deliciously tantalizing to Threads users.

And that nebulous is all it will be.

Tag @renewable_energy_club, cuz why not.

That's terrible. I wonder how much faster Fedi would be overall if everyone on Hetzner migrated. It's apparently the host for a majority...

Barack Obama (@barackobama) is on the Fediverse!

How cool is that?!

@fediversenews

BeAware,
@BeAware@social.beaware.live avatar

@barney @atomicpoet @fediversenews It's actually because your instance admin decided that you don't have a vote on whether or not the instance federates with threads.

AKA, your instance is blocking threads "for you"....🤦‍♂️

BeAware, to fediverse
@BeAware@social.beaware.live avatar

PSA: Since Threads apparently will be federating replies soon, I thought I should post this again, because there's still a lot of people that don't know.

When a normal user uses "block this domain" it's LITERALLY just a MUTE. The blocked server can still see, interact, and reply to your posts, you just won't be able to see them.

It's kinda like sitting in a room with hungry bears while wearing a blindfold. If you're scared of hungry bears, your best bet is to get out of the room, not put a blindfold on. And by this, I simply mean to migrate to an instance where the blocks are up to your standard on the "instance" level.

Stay informed and make informed decisions, no matter what you choose to do with your Fediverse presence.

how long until threads threatens to or actually does start blocking mastodon.social for allowing nudity?

would dot social bend the knee in that scenario and change their policy? probably

https://help.instagram.com/914046486923176

Post photos and videos that are appropriate for a diverse audience. We know that there are times when people might want to share nude images that are artistic or creative in nature, but for a variety of reasons, we don’t allow nudity on Instagram. This includes photos, videos, and some digitally-created content that show sexual intercourse, genitals, and close-ups of fully-nude buttocks. It also includes some photos of female nipples, but photos in the context of breastfeeding, birth giving and after-birth moments, health-related situations (for example, post-mastectomy, breast cancer awareness or gender confirmation surgery) or an act of protest are allowed. Nudity in photos of paintings and sculptures is OK, too. People like to share photos or videos of their children. For safety reasons, there are times when we may remove images that show nude or partially-nude children. Even when this content is shared with good intentions, it could be used by others in unanticipated ways. You can learn more on our Tips for Parents page.
Sexually explicit or violent media must be marked as sensitive or with a content warning This includes content that is particularly provocative even if it may not show specific body parts, as well as dead bodies, bloody injuries, and other gore. Particularly obscene content may be prohibited entirely. Profile pictures and header images may not contain sexually explicit or violent media.

@vantablack that's funny as fuck, cause they have MANY porn bots on Threads, so they better start defederating themselves 🤣

BeAware, (edited ) to fediverse
@BeAware@social.beaware.live avatar

So....there's an instance that has defederated from like 21,000 instances including all the shitty ones and the biggest ones and me.

lol.lamp.wtf

I wonder who they actually federate with🤔🤣🤣

Edit: its a joke instance that's automated and not managed. See: 0 active users

@manu It's an automated blocklist joke instance that isn't managed.

@BeAware@social.beaware.live avatar

@manu I'll edit the post so it's more apparent. I keep forgetting replies aren't always federated😅

@BeAware@social.beaware.live avatar

@schizanon Masto quite literally doesn't let you do this unless you make an account creation bot and an account follow bot. There's a 7,500 follow limit.🤷‍♂️ though I'm not sure if it's "hard coded" in a way that can't be easily changed.

BeAware,
@BeAware@social.beaware.live avatar

@schizanon PS. I thought mastodon was almost infinitely scalable...🤔 though I have no clue on these types of things.

BeAware,
@BeAware@social.beaware.live avatar

@schizanon Ah okay. That's neat.👍I'd be very interested in your results if you actually decide to do it.

@paninid Roku wrote the definition for enshittification, they're altering the definition, prey they don't alter it further.

@BeAware@social.beaware.live avatar

So, I'm curious about exactly how much of Fedi is blocking threads.

Boost for reach please. So the poll gets good info.

PS. This isn't a debate post or anything. Just want info if you're willing to share. Thanks!

BeAware,
@BeAware@social.beaware.live avatar

@mike You could do a poll, but there would never be a way to make sure every user votes. So I think this is the best way to think. Also make sure to have "authorized fetch" on and hope that Threads honors it, because if it's either off or they don't honor it, users "block this domain" will still be a mute. But I don't think bigger instances have it on either...🤷‍♂️

@damon@social.wedistribute.org avatar

Can someone tell me why and how they view instances as a ? What makes them communities? I see people upset at empowering individuals/users why is that problematic?

BeAware,
@BeAware@social.beaware.live avatar

@DavidBHimself @damon There's one in this very comment section that I blocked for this very reason.

To quote them, "You're talking about social expectations vs technology expectations, which are different" 🤦‍♂️

In other words, what people like that want vs the reality of the situation.

Hey @MonaApp, is there a slight possibility we could get a "Hashtag Drawer" feature where you can save individual hashtags for easy re-use along with keeping the CamelCase, pretty please?😅

The hashtag suggestions are great with this for the most part, but if there could just be a box of hashtags you could save without having to start typing each one in first. That'd be awesome!

BeAware,
@BeAware@social.beaware.live avatar

@andricheli @MonaApp This too would be cool.

Though, something I noticed on IceCubes with that feature, it doesn't work, for me at least. It only uses the first hashtag in the group for me.

The way I figured this out is, when I went to the group, I looked for posts that contained JUST hashtags that didn't include the first one. I'm willing to bet you won't be able to find any. Then search for a tag in your list that's also not the first, and see what youre missing from the list....😬
