So when are you gonna roll the metalhead.club Mastodon credentials over to create XMPP accounts for the entire server?
😜😜

@thomas @GothFvck there is also a direct auth script for Ejabberd to link directly to the Mastodon user-database: https://joinjabber.org/tutorials/integration/mastodon/

@lifeinstereo lässt sich so pauschal nicht sagen, aber bezüglich Privatsphäre ist XMPP definitiv besser. E2EE ist bei Matrix auch ziemlich aufgeweicht.

New month, new server bill 💸

We have some financial buffer to compensate for unexpected hardware failure/replacement and to make it through several months without donations...

... but if you want to drop some coins nonetheless, that'd be great!

Monthly server cost is about € 185 each month. If you're in the EU region, consider making a monthly recurring payment order 🤘.

Find more information here: https://donate.650thz.de

@thomas is the source-code for that donate page available somewhere? Seems quite nice to have also for other larger Fediverse instances.

I’m not really feeling matrix (running a server seems… complicated) but I’m definitely interested in any and all alternatives to telegram or discord rn, especially if they have sticker support. Lay ‘em on me #telegram #alternatives

@catgoat https://movim.eu has stickers and uses under the hood.

Im #XMPP Netzwerk wird schon wieder hart gespammt und langsam hab ich keinen Bock mehr. Auch Jahrzehnte später hat die beteiligte SW (egal, was man nutzt) keine brauchbaren Antispammechanismen.

Als Server admin oder User kann man fast nur zusehen (oder viel Handarbeit einsetzen) 😩

@thomas @daniel Das ist so weit ich weiß ein gewolltes feature von so "MUC mediated invites" das es optional ermöglicht pseudonymen Teilnehmern Einladungen indirekt über den MUC server zu versenden. Eventuell könnte man solche Einladungen generell im Client ignorieren, und man kann glaube ich als Serveradmin diese MUC option generell deaktivieren.
Aber ich finde auch das derzeitige Problem mit den Einladungen vor allem in Conversations nervig ist, da man automatisch und immer wieder zu dem MUCs hinzugefügt wird. In anderen Clients bekommt man nur einen dezenten Hinweis auf die Einladung, welche man auch ablehnen kann.

Is there a way to remove an inactive mod from a lemmy community I am a mod of?

kris,
@kris@outmo.de avatar

@liaizon In the standard lemmy-UI you need to find a post of that inactive mod in the same community, which is a bit annoying. With the alternative Photon UI each community has a "team" tab in the community settings where you can add and remove mods.

However note that there is currently a bug in Lemmy that prevents you from doing such actions if your account is not on the same instance as the community you moderate.

As far as I can see, Perma Computing community is too focused on the artistic aspect of computing. Which hardly covers the most energy intensive, ubiquitous parts of the computing world.

Unless the conversation is taken to tackle higher impact fields, the output of the community is more like the conceptual fashion shows:
a vanity demonstration. A limited proof of concept.

Such a disappointing realization.

blake, to random

I'm considering starting a new project (yes, I know), an External Component that is a full MIX implementation -- particularly including MIX-MUC, crucial for backwards compatibility.

At this point I'd only do it with a sponsorship or grant or some such. I don't want to take on the responsibility and sacrifice my free time for it just for it to blow up in my face, I'd much rather have some support structure in place.

kris,
@kris@outmo.de avatar

@blake You could create a project on OpenCollective under the XSF as a fiscal host: https://opencollective.com/xmpp and see if people are interested in donating for it. But MIX is probably a dead-end with little support and seemingly interest by XMPP clients.

Okay, if you’re on , @moshidon is legit a fantastic client for Android. This is straight up my default client now. It supports:

  • Markdown / MFM
  • Emoji Reacts
  • Quote Posts
  • Bubble Timeline

Plus it looks great, has a ton of customization options, and you can tweak a ton of different pieces to make it do what you want?!

kris,
@kris@outmo.de avatar

@deadsuperhero @moshidon Works really nicely, the only issue I could find is that the auto-translate option doesn't seem to work with my Akkoma instance (it works on Akkoma-fe and Phanpy).

It would be also nice if there was a way to manually configure the language of the app, as right now it seems to always use the system language with no way of changing that.

I don't have money for college and integrating into a classroom is really difficult for me. I want to improve my skills to pass the direct admission test for a high school, or at least improve as much as i can trying.

The cheapest plan is a year, which is 109 Euros without taxes. The monthly subscription is 16, which would be 192 Euros.

my brilliant profile is public, you will be able to verify that i indeed spent the money on it and that i will be really active.

@YoSoyFreeman That seems rather cheap, but I don't really get how some app subscription would help you getting some sort of formal qualification, especially if it is not developed for your home country's requirements.

@YoSoyFreeman Maybe I am showing my age here, but wouldn't it be more effective to buy a regular prep. book especially for this exam that is adapted to your country's school curriculum and language? I am near certain that exists.

sam, to KindActions
@sam@social.coop avatar

A friend of mine suggested I post online about a thing that I need help with financially and I've found myself extremely uncomfortable with the idea. I'm having trouble examining where that reticence comes from though. I can't tell if this is some ingrained toxic-masculinity around independence, a sense of failure because I gave up on a good tech career, or some internalized capitalist principal that asking for help is somehow bad similar to the stigma around panhandling.

kris,
@kris@outmo.de avatar

@sam hmm, maybe it's the thought that getting help from a total stranger online is for sure a one sided thing? If it is someone you know in real-life it is easier to uphold the self-illusion that you will repay it someway or another? Not sure, but I have wondered myself about a certain reluctance of mine to ask for donations online.

Ich hoste mit meine eigenen Dienste. Darunter z.b. und . Nun wollte ich gerne mal nachfragen, wie sicher das ganze ist, wenn ich z.b. Die Suchmaschine und auch XMPP öffentlich ins Netz stellen würde; was muss beachtet werden? Oder sollte ich davon ganz absehen?

kris,
@kris@outmo.de avatar

@gnox Searxng hat eine Funktion die Verbindung zu Google search nur mit einem geheimen Code zu erlauben. Wenn man das einfach nur so ins Netz stellt und es von anderen viel genutzt wird, drosselt oder blockiert Google die IP recht schnell. Mit invidious und Youtube könnte das ähnlich sein.

Ansonsten wie schon erwähnt, keine offene Anmeldung erlauben sonst wird man schnell zur Spamschleuder oder schlimmer.

kris,
@kris@outmo.de avatar

@gnox Immer schön alles aktuell halten und SSH am besten nur intern zugänglich machen. Ansonsten... lässt sich natürlich nix völlig ausschließen aber die Wahrscheinlichkeit das wer aktiv versucht in deinen Server einzudringen ist recht gering.

kris,
@kris@outmo.de avatar

@gnox Ah... ich dachte es handelt sich um einen Homeserver. Naja, zumindestens auf einen nicht standard SSH port wechseln und wenn das nicht bei Yunohost eh immer aktiv ist, dann fail2ban installieren.

Man kann auch ein VPN server installieren und SSH dann wirklich nur von "innen" erreichen, aber keine Ahnung ob das mit Yunohost einfach möglich ist.

Nice to see Franzo live-streaming games again, and thanks to @cobito for hosting a instance. The only thing that is missing is direct access for linking the live chat via see: https://gitlab.com/refrac/obs-matterbridge-overlay/-/blob/master/documentation/peertube.md#matterbridge

kris,
@kris@outmo.de avatar

@cobito @opensourcegaming The plan is to use a regular XMPP connection to bridge the chat with Matterbridge. It needs some additional configuration to allow external XMPP servers to connect to the one built into Peertube for the live-chat, see: https://livingston.frama.io/peertube-plugin-livechat/documentation/admin/advanced/xmpp_clients/

kris,
@kris@outmo.de avatar

@cobito @opensourcegaming But I am looking into this tutorial right now which might be a bit simpler than enabling full XMPP federation: https://gitlab.com/refrac/obs-matterbridge-overlay/-/blob/master/documentation/peertube.md

kris,
@kris@outmo.de avatar

@cobito @opensourcegaming I talked to the live-chat plugin developer and we came up with a simpler option that requires a small upstream change, see: https://github.com/JohnXLivingston/peertube-plugin-livechat/issues/377

@aral @drewdevault @otfrom To my knowledge the KaiOS fork of Boot2Gecko is and remains FOSS. They added an proprietary UI for feature-phones on top of that, but the GPL would not prevent that either, no? There is by the way a new project that takes improvements from KaiOS's Boot2Gecko and adds an new FOSS UI on top of that: https://capyloon.org/

Setting up an alternative event calendar in your town might be one of the single easiest things you can do to boost local counterculture and grassroot organization. :anarchism:

Here the example of Barcelona:
https://bcn.convoca.la/

  • easy to use
  • privacy-friendly
  • everybody can post an event (approval by mods), registered collectives can publish directly

Plus: the underlying software (@gancio developed by @lesion :anarchoheart3: ) is FOSS and works with ActivityPub!
