It's...deeply flawed, and not nearly ready for production. But, here's an example of what the #Friendica Myspace theme already looks like.
A friendica profile disguised to look like MySpace classic.

Because The U.S. Is Too Corrupt To Pass Privacy Legislation, Data Brokers Increasingly Traffic In Sensitive Mental Health Data… (A) growing number of mental health apps routinely collect and monetize sensitive consumer mental health data, yet fail to meaningfully protect the data they collect https://www.techdirt.com/2023/02/14/because-the-u-s-is-too-corrupt-to-pass-privacy-legislation-data-brokers-increasingly-traffic-in-sensitive-mental-health-data/ #privacy #adTech

Work on #Conversations_im 3.0 has officially begun. 🥳
Funding got cleared in November 2022 but I had customer projects that I couldn’t just stop working on from one day to another.

C3 is a complete architecture overhaul. New database; new UI toolkit; improved XML (de)serialization.

Among other things this means we can have proper Unit Tests now. 😍

Those familiar with how Conversations used to construct stanzas will make the new API (as shown in this test) very happy: https://codeberg.org/iNPUTmice/Conversations/src/commit/924b0b284f2b18f2785cec3ef9b0e4098d163ca7/src/androidTest/java/im/conversations/android/xmpp/TransformationTest.java#L54-L61

So apparently Jack Dorsey uses Fountain. Does he maybe also listen to the board meeting? 🤔 I doubt it but him using a PC 2.0 app is pretty cool imo.

Fairphone 4 can now run Android 13 with microG courtesy of unofficial LineageOS 20 ROM


Photo of a phone exploded into different layers of components
For those that maybe aren’t aware of the Fairphone 4, it is a mid-range smartphone offered by Amsterdam-based company Fairphone that stands out from the typical Android crowd due to its easy-to-repair design. It was released in 2021 with Android 11 pre-installed. Although the company promised two major Android updates, the Fairphone 4 has yet to get a taste of Android 12 through the official channel. Be that as it may, the phone has now received an unofficial build of LineageOS 20 with microG and F-Droid, thanks to XDA JMember tfbb, with significant contributions from the WeAreFairphone community.

Keep in mind that this isn’t the first Android 13 custom ROM for the Fairphone 4. The CalyxOS project, for example, added the fourth generation Fairphone in their build roster a few months ago. Nonetheless, a pre-compiled LineageOS release with integrated microG support is huge for the privacy-minded Fairphone users, who don’t want to sacrifice customizability for the sake of security.

Each Mastodon server has its own set of custom emoji. These can be any image <img class=e:" title=":cate:"/> or short animation :rickroll:

To access your server's custom emoji in the apps, tap the 😃 smiley icon within the app itself when you're writing a post (and NOT the smiley on your keyboard, that's just for normal emoji).

To access custom emoji on your server's website, click the emoji picker icon 😂 in the post writing box.

If you want more custom emoji added to your server, contact your server admin.

So happy to announce all issues with #XMPP verification have been solved, and the proofs now work better than before 🚀

Simply log in here and add the proofs:

It doesn't track or store any data and runs entirely in the browser, feel free to inspect the source code to verify this!

A huge thanks to @mattj for his help!

Mastodon isn't just a replacement for twitter


I'm hoping the influx to Mastodon doesn't bolster the exclusion of Pleroma and Soapbox. Popularity is a sign of people following the crowd, rather than following the best software. This article is a good intro to community based moderation, but doesn't mention moderation at the user level. If you don't want to see it, block it yourself rather than relying on your server to make that decision for you. The fediverse is segregated unduly because of trusting moderators over individuals

If anyone is troubleshooting Podping and podpings, the best way to see if your podping has gone through is via my new API.

There's a relatively easy to use doc site for it.

You can put your RSS feed URL (called an IRI) into the box in this request and you'll see the most recent podpings in reverse chronological order.

It updates within a second of a ping going out.

Whether Covid causes more or less myocarditis than the vax is less interesting a question than why Ralph B was was using coronaviruses to give myocarditis to rabbits back in 1990's. I wonder what he's been up to in this decade.

For sure the Vaxx causes more myocarditis in males 40 & younger than Covid, that’s a fact. Now we find out this:

So Covid vaccines may cause myocarditis, but Covid itself causes myocarditis too, right? WRONG!

Have any of the journalists joining the fediverse publicly condemned the unjust persecution of Julian Assange?

If not, they're probably not worth following.

2) click Follow
There's no step 3!

@fu Don't get me wrong, I'm not bagging Friendica here. I'm glad it serves you so well.

> I was a Facebook user from back when you had to have a .edu address...

I think this is the key point. You can compare Friendica to what FB was *then*. If folks compare it to what FB is*now*, they'll be left wondering why there's no equivalent to the events system, Messenger, public Pages, Marketplace, Livestreaming, etc etc. I just don't think the comparison serves Friendica adoption.

> we need to be creating new and better projects that are mind-blowing development on their own

IMHO all the fediverse projects do something new and better. Federation is new and better than giant "cloud" server farms, and allows forms new forms of load balancing, moderation, and revenue models that aren't possible in centralized platforms. It's just an easy starting point for evangelizing to newbies if you can compare them with a platform they're already familiar with.

Isn't this post exactly what people call toxic on other platforms? Calling for boosts/likes to get to a result, basically extorting people?

dansup reshared this.

Not at all.

We are simply asking our followers to signal (via a share) their response, it's not that different from a poll.

Implying we are engaging in toxic or extortionate behaviour is pretty ignorant considering the context, and the fact that pixelfed doesn't support polls by default - we did this so most implementations could respond if desired.



The many branches of the Fediverse and why Mastodon is only one of many other connected social networks


Bild/Foto
I also still see lots of confusion and questions from many new users flooding into Mastodon, and then wondering whether they must also have an account on Pixelfed, etc. The other issue is, that you can’t just use a handle on it’s own, as you must also identify which instance it belongs to, much like a street address is associated with a town it belongs in. The Fediverse is much bigger than just Mastodon, and you may only need one account in one place, to connect to everywhere else, and that account need not be on Mastodon, or even the one big original Mastodon server instance.

Fediverse is shorthand for federated universe. But what does federated really mean in this context? It’s important to remember that the vast majority of applications in the picture (in linked article) can be installed thousands of times over and each of these instances, or servers, be of many different sizes. Each of these have their own rules and ownership, and make up their own corner of the Fediverse.

It is good for all users of social networks to realise there is a bigger picture context, and to understand more about their options going into the Fediverse one day, if they so wish. Some good FAQ at the linked article below.
