Aber dennoch: Wirklich beeindruckt hat mich Mastodon nicht. Eher enttäuscht. Zwar finde ich den dezentralen Ansatz spannend, die App aber ruckelte zu sehr und es fehlen noch die prominenten Namen, denen man folgen kann, zum Beispiel Elon Musk. Bis er auf Mastodon erscheint, wird es aber wahrscheinlich noch eine Weile dauern.

it helps but part of the the problem is because of how Maston works technically, its basically impossible to get rid of one-off harassment servers/accounts/posts

Mx. Luna Corbden 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

@ionizedgirl Defederation? My instance can’t know what the bad/unmoderated instances are without getting reports. Mass reports, preferably, not just from a few BIPOC. That’s why I suggested it.

@react loading skeleton

a bad actor can make a mastodon instance to send one post to one person and never use it again. Defederation only works against instances that people are socially invested in.

@ionizedgirl Any security can be worked around. The goal is to make it as hard as possible.

@react loading skeleton

Mx. Luna Corbden 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

Making Mastodon safer for BIPOC by reporting racism means proactive labor. It only takes a few minutes out of your doomscrolling and is more effective at fixing the world!

1. Follow BIPOC. You should be doing that anyway!

2. Read their posts. Be open to understanding their experience. (You should be doing that anyway!)

3. Click through! Read some or all replies. Learn even more from the positive and educational posts.

4. Report the racist ones.

As I said in the replies, this will alert the racist’s instance, and assuming their instance won’t do anything, it also alerts you own instance about problem-servers to defederate with. Otherwise they can’t know!

The more of us who do this, the better. Reporting bad behavior is a form of democracy that establishes what is unacceptable in our shared culture.

@ohmu I reported a couple of them on a couple of her threads. That’s what inspired this thread. Not sure if we saw the same ones.

Tyler Smith 4 months ago • hometown (AP)

I don't understand this. I saw Kim C's post, and then this one. I followed her and scrolled back through her posts looking through replies. Other than a few well-meaning but misguided responses, I don't see anything notable. Certainly not anything I could report.

I'm not doubting any of the reports, but I'm at a loss as to how to contribute productively to a problem that is invisible to me. I sort of understand why I don't see it, but the details of follows and server federation etc remain a bit mystifying.

Mx. Luna Corbden 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

@plantarum She had a couple of threads that were targeted, so that might be why. And there’s discussion in the replies to my first post in this thread about federation not showing everything, and tools that exist to fix that (but they’re fiddly and individual so I probably won’t be able to implement them given my fatigue and brain fog stuff), and possible future technical solutions to ensure replies get federated. And IIRC, discussion about hour is still useful to look because some of them will appear to you sometimes

Some of that “well meaning misguided” stuff is just as exhausting for a POC, because they get so much of it all the time. For those, rather than report, I used my privilege and understanding to jump in and describe the problems with their thinking. Because it is more hurtful for supposed allies to tone police etc. It is still talking over Black women, who know things, especially during this time which I see as theirs and I have been following their lead.

Kee Hinckley 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

I totally agree. And I'm going to start proactively checking replies on posts by BIPoC folks I follow. I've seen too many folks talking about this abuse, it's time to actively seek it out and shut it down.

I'm concerned that the fact that you can't necessarily see replies from people on servers not followed by people on yours (I think that's the algorithm, I know it's something like that) means that we can check replies, but we can't see all of them, especially from rogue servers.

I'd love to have some data on how many of the attacks fall into that category. Because I don't know if that's a big problem or not. I'm also curious if @MonaApp 's "load from remote server" command works around this.

@Mona app

Solarbird :flag_cascadia: 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

@nazgul @MonaApp I run a task to pull in all replies from other servers. You don't even have to be an admin to run it against your own account, even against a server. It's called FediFetcher:

https://github.com/nanos/FediFetcher

It may and may not be useful for you, but it's something I find quite helpful as a small-instance admin and may be good for attacking this problem.

GitHub - nanos/FediFetcher: FediFetcher is a tool for Mastodon that automatically fetches missing replies and posts from other fediverse instances, and adds them to your own Mastodon instance.

support@defcon.social 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

We run FediFetcher for a few accounts, but it is not designed for a server to run it. It’s designed so users run it to better populate their feeds and get additional context.

The more people run it the more “complete” the server feed becomes as more messages are brought in.

Give it a try!

There is back end work Mastodon is slowly doing to add some of these features at the server level, but for now you have to do it at the individual level.

Kee Hinckley 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

@moira @MonaApp Looks like in this case it's not bad servers, it's throwaway accounts on big servers. So we can definitely help

cobalt 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

Agreed and also to @nazgul on your comments because I get frustrated I just don't see any of the abuse some of my friends get. Since I'm on a weird semi-corporate sort of instance (seriously, AWS???) that I only picked because I had to find one in a hurry when my old one died off - well maybe because literally no one on that "local" AWS community would be following the trolls and racist sorts. It's hard to fight something you can't "see".

So Wendy and I voted in the Democratic primary here in Vermont. We voted for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Many Republic voters here voted for Donald Trump with the Republican VP slot unknown. Some have expressed concern that by dropping out (especially if he was pressured to) Joe Biden nullified our primary vote. Well, I for one, don't see it that way. First off, Biden appears to have made this decision on his own. Unless Biden steps up and says he was pressured, any suggest along those lines is speculation -- and frankly -- probably self-serving speculation. Second, a vote for Biden carries with it an understanding that Kamala Harris would assume the Presidency if Joe Biden were unable. In contrast no vote cast for Donald Trump would be an endorsement of JD Vance -- since the VP choice was unknown at the time.

Cheers, -Randy

Jde o to že Olympiáda ve stylu 20.století je postě projevem podoby sportu v korporátní éře, která se zaměřila na maximální efektivitu, maximální preciznost, přesnost, takže i v těch sportech rozhodují zlomky sekund a netrénovaní amatéři nemají šanci obstát.

A sra da barraca da praia ao lado esteve a ver a abertura dos jogos olimpicos no telemóvel, e ía comentado os países que achava dignos de relevo: portugal, espanha, os comunistas, um país africano. Não perguntei, agora vou ver se a Coreia do Norte participa nos jogos olimpicos.

estava literalmente no mesmo barco que Portugal. E o Catar... que companhia por ordem alfabética...

Catarina :mastodon_oops: 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

ai foram de barco, olha que giro, então se calhar era isso

João Tiago Rebelo 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

sim, está a ser uma cerimónia engraçada por as delegações passarem de barco pelo Sena, estão durante 6km à vista de toda a gente nas duas margens, e de cima de algumas das pontes.

pois eu desisti ao 5.º cacilheiro. Monótono. E agora soube que desenterraram a canadiana, porquê não sei. A cantora mais oferecida do mundo. Já ganhou a Eurovisão pela Suíça e agora a França? O que pensarão os excelentes artistas franceses disto tudo? Triste e monótono.

João Tiago Rebelo 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

os artistas franceses estão contentíssimos, porque houve milhares deles empregados para a cerimónia, mas também porque a cultura mostrada, mais que francesa, foi francófona. De todas as latitudes do Mundo. O que ficou bem patente e demonstrado em actuações como as de Lady Gaga, Céline Dion (regressando à ribalta depois de paragem forçada por razões de saúde), Aya Nakamura, Gojira, etc., etc..
Podemos não gostar do(s) artista(s), mas confundir isso com uma suposta falta de qualidade ou identidade do espectáculo (assistindo a cerimónias de abertura de Jogos Olímpicos pelo menos desde Sydney 2000, foi a mais espectacular, inventiva e culturalmente demonstrativa da cidade e da Cultura do país organizador) não compreendo.

só posso falar do que vi. Um desfile de barcos que me fez desistir e mesmo no fim a Celine Dion que eu detesto. O que se passou durante as longas horas não sei. Preferi ler um livro. Mas repito, a França tem centenas de cantores(as) que têm muito melhor qualidade e presença. Mas a nossa federação de futebol fez o mesmo em 2004 convidando também uma canadiana e deixando de fora os nossos artistas. Mas uma canadiana que eu adoro, atenção.

Eu já não aguento estas manifestações de hipocrisia das organizações disto e daquilo, com tanta treta à mistura e tanto assobio para o lado, onde se gastam milhões, quando há tanto para resolver nesta humanidade! Desculpem...

João Tiago Rebelo 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

estes até foram bastante inclusivos, do ponto de vista físico, social e cultural. E há obra que fica feita para benefício social (bastava a limpeza que o Sena levou, mas há muito mais).

@Catarina :mastodon_oops: @Louro

João Pinheiro 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

Sim, eu sei. Mas não precisamos dessas desculpas... E há formas mais eficientes de usar o dinheiro. É só isso.

João Tiago Rebelo 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

claro que há, mas parece que não se faz nada se não for assim (por exemplo, em Lisboa, Expo 98 e Jornadas Mundiais da Juventude, não fosse isso e o Rio Tejo estava totalmente poluído e havia uma lixeira contínua da Matinha a Loures).
@dplouro @catarinac

@Catarina :mastodon_oops: @Louro

João Pinheiro 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

Mas o que se fez no Rio Tejo podia ter sido feito na mesma, gastando muito menos dinheiro e sem atascar o país para uma carrada de décadas...

João Tiago Rebelo 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

podia, mas não teria sido feito de todo (como não foi ao longo de décadas, veja-se o caso dos Comboios de Alta Velocidade ou do novo Aeroporto de Lisboa) @dplouro @catarinac

@Catarina :mastodon_oops: @Louro

João Pinheiro 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

Sim, eu sei. Por isso é que eu disse que é só com desculpas que se faz alguma coisa. E é ver o interior a perder tudo e a pagar para os lisboetas terem tudo!

João Tiago Rebelo 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

os "lisboetas" (penso que a referência é a quem vive e trabalha na AML, porque poucos vivem em Lisboa, e a AML tem 2.871.133 habitantes, mais 1,1 milhões de pessoas que a segunda maior Área Metropolitana do País, a do Porto) continuam a ter maus transportes, maus serviços públicos, etc. Aliás, não fosse o ainda pior serviço de transportes e viver fora da AML levaria a discussões sobre quem está pior, quando as maternidades e urgências fechadas estão na AML, quando os tribunais com mais pendências e atrasos estão na AML, a falta de policiamento é falada como problema da AML e da AMP. Se falarem em litoralismo, concordo, achar que quase 5 milhões de pessoas (metade da população do país) têm culpa por existirem e viverem ali e terem direito a serviços públicos, suporte e investimento... já perdi a conta a obras megalómanas e inúteis de presidentes de câmara no interior que não servem para coisa nenhuma (além do óbvio) e os munícipes votam sempre do mesmo lado há 50 anos (Cazaquistão, por exemplo) ou quando não votam, fazem-no em quem se está a borrifar olimpicamente para eles (Ventruja e sus muchachos).

Mudaram alguns serviços públicos e Ministérios para fora de Lisboa, resultou? Claro que não. Até a piada de "descentralizar" a candidatura da Agência Europeia do Medicamento para o Porto fez com que o país perdesse o que com ela viria. Só me faz pensar na lógica "se não é para mim, não é para ninguém" e já perdemos muito com isso (o exemplo mais recente será Coimbra ser capital europeia da cultura em 2027, candidatura retirada antecipadamente quando o financiamento da UE permitiria acabar de uma vez por todas com os entraves que foram sendo levantados por projectos deixados a meio uma e outra vez, sem ser até no investimento na Cultura naquela região).

portanto a tua solução é irmos viver todos para Lisboa? As soluções que referes não foram implementadas ou concretizadas exatamente por decisão do poder central. Tiro ao lado. Porque raio o Mosteiro da Batalha é dirigido por uns lisboetas que roçam o cu pelo gabinete? Ou o Pinhal do Rei que actualmente é o Deserto do Rei por inação desses tipos? Se estas fotos fossem no Monsanto era a indignação geral.

conversa de treta. Tambem Carlos Moedas é de Evora ou Beja. Não é esse o problema. O problema é o sistema. Se o senhor da porcaria que é o INCF canalizasse dinheiro para onde é necessário e não para o pequeno concelho com 1% de floresta onde está situado era imediatamente afastado. Ou toca a gaita ou vai de gaita.

João Tiago Rebelo 4 months ago • mastodon (AP)

o ICNF gasta o dinheiro todo da floresta num concelho sem floresta?!? Só se for no edifício sede e em salários, com a sede em Vila Nova da Barquinha, Borba ou Armamar também aconteceria. Fico sempre à espera de candidaturas de quem se queixa porque a CRESAP não limita a escolher as mesmas 2 ou 3 pessoas...
@joaopinheiro um Salazar em cada esquina só se for a cair em cima de cada facho que pensa neles. Um novo 25 de Abril não é preciso, é preciso cumprir o de 1974. Bem, bom fim de semana, o Domingo não é para redes sociais.

Já agora, não é com ICNFs e outros que tais que resolvemos os problemas. Gente atrás de secretárias não sabem resolver nada! É no local, na terra, no pó! Aí é que se resolvem os problemas! Mas, para isso, é preciso mudar-se o modelo de sociedade. É preciso deixar as pessoas viverem nas suas terras, em vez de as obrigar a ir todas viver para as cidades, porque a escola mais próxima fica a 40 kms e o hospital a 100!

É engraçado como os políticos funcionam... Primeiro a gestão da floresta, à moda antiga, não era boa. E veio a grande monocultura do eucalipto e etc. Agora, já perceberam que fazem falta outras pelo meio. Hortas, também... Animais, para limparem a floresta e darem leite, carne, peles... Para fazer queijo, enchidos... Para não termos de comprar tudo aos chineses e para as populações viverem bem onde quiserem! E, com isto, evitar incêndios. E isto não se faz atrás de secretárias a olhar para mapas... Fazem os locais a falar com as pessoas. Mas isto seria pedir muito a quem só gosta de se ouvir a fazer discursos patéticos...

Can someone point me to where the #COVID19 pandemic ended because I'm having a hard time seeing it? Where, precisely, did we turn it into a “seasonal” virus?

Our summer surge won't be one of the worst nationally (although in some places, like parts of Florida, it will be at or near records.) But, right now, one of every 44 Americans has COVID.

Please take a little care, and avoid the chronic Long COVID or other damage your next infection can cause.

Chart of estimated COVID infections/day in the US from JWeiland on Twitter. It shows the US in another moderate surge--with constant significant peaks in recent years. No significant downward trend is evident, apart from that our worst surge was in winter 2021.

It's an indoor epidemic. Anytime it's too cold or too hot to stay outside, the cases spike. Which gives a clue to stopping this disease. Fix indoor air quality.
