Good intention, to let us know about the strategy. But i would guess everybody knows the strategy since most of us are working in IT. Hence the downvotes.
But tbh. everyone should hear about it. No backup? No sympathy. (Kein Backup? Kein Mitleid)
This doesn’t seem accurate at all. The census itself doesn’t display this info, is it from their website? Race is self reported so I don’t get why a origin map is relevant. Also, the US census does not consider hispanic/Latino to be a racial category. Folks who select that option for ethnicity are ALSO asked to select race seperately.
You can log in to your Mastodon, Bluesky, or Nostr account and see the feed for your existing follows on those accounts.
You can also follow users from any of those protocols from a Mastodon account. The goal is to be able to follow users from any of those protocols regardless of the type of account you're logged in to.
Just added an algorithmic “For You” feed to the @agora Mastodon client!
It finds high quality posts from your follows, and combines it with interesting posts from accounts you aren’t following.
The goal is for it to be the best combination of posts from your network and undiscovered posts based entirely on your interests, not on maximizing engagement or clicks.
@spiritedpause@agora Very cool that it gets used. If you need anything just let me know. I tried to make fedialgo in a way that makes adding new sources of posts easy. Your project seems very promising!
@maswaba@spiritedpause@agora Its basically a mix of the top posts of the instances where most of your following is, and also accounts that you interact with more often. My own implementation also lets you adjust the weights of this stuff, I don't know if Agora plans to do similar manual settings. (my implementation: https://foryoufeed.vercel.app)

bird.makeup is a twitter bridge that makes Mastodon much more appealing for those wanting all their follows in one place. So it's super lame that many of the largest instances chose to outright block it, rather than setting it to limited.
The entire purpose of "limited" is that only users who explicitly follow someone on the limited instance, will see that persons posts. So what's the problem?
@spiritedpause I'm not sure why the numbers are so high. You can see that even for mastodon.social my server has only seen some of their users. At the end of the day a very small proportion of our users will lose access to content that is available elsewhere. The great thing about the fediverse is that there are lots of servers that don't block bird.makeup, and users can move to those if it's an important feature for them. @Gargron@mwadmin@wild1145@nicdex@vincent
In support of user autonomy, it would be nice to see #Mastodon clients notifying users when a profile they’re searching is on a remote instance that’s blocked/ #defederated by their instance, and then offer to load it for them directly if they still want to see it.
Instance admins have the right to choose what gets federated to their servers, but users shouldn’t be totally at the whim of those admins decisions.
This is one of the things i’m prioritizing with the Agora client i’m working on.
Slightly off topic: I kinda wish Lemmy would set the first link in text posts as the post link, that would really help integration with other platforms.
