"olhai por nóis" meaning "watch over us" (fedia.io)

a pixo that I like was in the Pátio do Colégio, a historical jesuit square and church that marks where the city was founded, the first building and the catechization of indigenous people. The jesuits were kicked by the settlers, because of the settlers interest in indigenous slave labour and some time later it also received...

Mobilizon v/s Nextcloud (v/s other?) for a network of people event calendar

I have been given the task of finding a proper platform for building a network of education, medical and other initiatives in my country, that have all the same focus (I am sorry I can’t give details yet on the project, but you could probably could get a grasp of the idea if you think in something like a church whose...

I would recommend Gancio instead of Mobilizon to be honest. Its also fediverse event software but designed quite different. You can see a pretty active server of it here bcn.convoca.la

its very different. I would recommend signing up to instances of both and playing around with them to get a hang of it. I really don’t like the design of mobilizon I think they made a lot of confusing decisions

its funny you are saying that right now I was just reading about how many fediverse projects are there, I am sure we could get it packaged up for Yunohost if that was a stopper for you…

We Distribute - Ghost Announces ActivityPub Integration (wedistribute.org)

Today, open source publishing platform Ghost announced that it will soon join the Fediverse with ActivityPub integration baked-in to its feature suite. The announcement includes a handy explanation of what ActivityPub is, the benefits that provides to publishers on Ghost, and a deep dive into where these features will be found...

I ran across this exchange with Ghost CEO John O’Nolan on the Product Hunt announcement:

Levelsio:

Wow great work, do you think payments will start to also go this way with Ghost in the future? As ActivityPub is decentralized, maybe having some decentralized type payments fit into the future

John O’Nolan replied:

yeah! I think crypto is actually starting to get interesting for the first time now, because most people are no longer interested in it. Generally that signals the end of the hype phase and the beginning of practical utility - so I’m very interested in exploring how decentralised payments could work in Ghost in the future. There are all kinds of interesting and legitimate and interesting usecases which Stripe (mostly Visa/Mastercard) refuse to support

Ghost was originally just for blogging, but they recently decided to take on Substack directly so now they do both. I think Buttondown originally came out of Mailchip being shitty and then they were also taking on Substack so I think this move is that if they team up together and also with the fediverse they have a shot at directly competing with Substack (in the VC minded way I assume)

Well the part that excites me is that Ghost is one of the biggest newer CMS’s started after Wordpress. Ghost is also open source so at least the work they do can be reused into the future (unlike say Threads or Flipboard) and we will suddenly have the ability of a lot of large parts of the web to be able to switch on federation without much effort. Look at all these large entities that use Ghost. Everytime one of these big players joins the fediverse there is this overflow effect onto little community players who might have chosen to use Ghost or WordPress or Flarum etc a long time ago and suddenly without the individual sites having to do much they can grow a whole new audience. So in short, I don’t use Ghost and am not personally super excited by the project, but I am excited to see who it ends up bringing in!

Thanks for the prompt! I am trying to talk more publicly about all this fediverse internet hubub thats swirling in my head lately. There is a massive seachange here that feels possible for maybe the first time in my adult life and I think it will only get there if we all really push for the fediverse to become what we desire in the world.

"we’re starting work to look into the possibility of adding ActivityPub support to Ghost" says Ghost CEO (forum.ghost.org)

“This idea has been at the top of the list for a long time, so this week we’re starting work to look into the possibility of adding ActivityPub support to Ghost. Because there are lots of different potential ways this could be built, the team is curious to hear more detail about how you imagine this working… If you have a...

This is just such an action packed post @laurenshof, thanks for the mention!

I love wikipedia which is why I thought this video was funny. I edit wikipedia all the time, and I also find some of the ways it operates super fucking obnoxious and wish it had more mechanisms of participation from people of different argumentation. I have been adding a lot of stuff to Wikidata lately cause the idea of making the knowledge more bite sized makes a lot more sense to me.

still have no idea what you are trying to say…

it works fine in Photon, so it seems like its just a lemmy web front end issue. I didn’t realize till I looked in this other client that it worked https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/9d003896-f071-483e-b161-a57fbb6eda05.png
