Das #Fediverse und Österreich: Was ist da eigentlich (nicht) los?
Letztes Wochenende fanden die Grazer Linuxtage statt und dort habe ich einen Blick auf die österreichische Fediverse-Landschaft geworfen.
Die Infrastruktur ist teilweise schon da, dennoch besteht va im Medienbereich und bei öffentlichen Institutionen massiver (!) Aufholbedarf:

Die CEO's A. Karp und N. Zamiska von #palantir haben eine Zusammenfassung ihres Buchs gepostet, das an Deutlichkeit nichts zu wünschen übrig lässt: so sei die Entmachtung Deutschlands und Japans am Ende des 2. Weltkriegs ein Fehler gewesen.

In einem haben sie offenkundig recht: es ist nicht egal, welche Software man benutzt, weil hinter der Konstruktion eine politische Auffassung von Kommunikation und Gesellschaft steht, der damit zur Durchsetzung verholfen wird.

Dear #Fediverse / #Mastodon,

Looking for an app or service that will allow me to create a #music playlist and #stream it live via link. Basically like hosting a radio show. Would love it if it’s open source, and even better if it’s part of #ActivityPub.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Bonus points if there’s an #iOS app for it.

Late #Caturday post.

I was walking my two dogs today when a white cat fell from a 6-story building, landing on the pavement just a meter away from me. She miraculously landed on her paws but was completely terrified. People just kept walking by. Within five minutes, I realized I was the only one left who could help her. I've become the only who knew what happened.

Spontaneous interaction with strangers is usually a huge struggle for me. But leaving a shocked animal near traffic with a heavy thunderstorm approaching just wasn't an option.

The urgency of the situation somehow bypassed my anxiety. I just had to swallow my panic and do something.
I looked up at the building and noticed only one open window on the top floor. I assumed that's where she fell from.

The intercom was broken, and I wasn't even sure I was buzzing the right apartment. I honestly had no idea what I was going to say. With no other options, I stood there with my dogs, guarding the cat, and kept staring at that open window hoping someone would look out.

Eventually, a man did. I waved and asked if he was missing a white cat. He looked confused - as far as I know cats are quiet, and probably he hadn't even noticed she was gone. But when I told him she was hiding right around the corner, he rushed downstairs.

From the fall to the reunion, the whole thing took about 15 minutes. I am strictly a dog person with almost zero cat experience, but I know I wouldn't be able to sleep tonight if I had just walked away knowing I could have helped.

I really hope the brave little survivor is okay now. Photo attached.

@jasongorman

I did a bit of light digging out of personal curiosity;

mastodon.cloud ownership trail:

Originally run by a Japanese operator who announced shutdown in May 2020 over anticipated defamation law compliance burdens. Both mastodon.cloud (~59k users) and mstdn.jp (~200k users) were transferred on July 1 2020 to Sujitech LLC (USA), a two-person company led by Suji Yan; UIUC dropout, founder of Mask Network (Web3/crypto decentralised social protocol).

Suji Yan's own mastodon.cloud profile: 10 posts. 58 followers. That's your active admin (!)

Corporate structure is layered: Sujitech sits under Dimension.im, Yan is also Chairman of "The Social Coop Limited" (unrelated to social.coop), Mask Network's venture arm Bonfire Union claims $100M across 120 projects. In late 2022 they also acquired Pawoo.net. In Nov 2023 Sujitech donated $100K to Mastodon; reportedly the largest single donation, which buys a lot of legitimacy narrative while the instances they actually run go unmoderated.

As early as late 2020, observers noted the team was too busy with Mask Network to allocate real resources to mstdn.jp or mastodon.cloud. The Feb 2024 spam wave exposed just how many large instances with open registrations were effectively abandoned, mastodon.cloud fits this pattern precisely.

The play: maintain big-name legacy instances as credibility tokens ("we operate major Mastodon infrastructure!") while chasing Lens protocol stewardship and Web3 deals. Instance governance is a line item in a pitch deck, not an operational commitment.

An interesting chapter in #fediverse #web3 history

Just had a lovely chat with my long-time former neighbor when I owned a house in southern Colorado with my ex.

It was great to catch up with them and to have a friendly voice with history to connect with. They are going through a lot of really big stuff, but are trying their best to manage and survive in the face of adversity. I am humbled by their resilience. ❤️

My friend is the most Fediversian of all the people I know IRL. They would love it here if they had the capacity for it. They were my friend before I first found the Fediverse, and I think they helped shape me in being the person I want to be here by offering acceptance and kindness.

Your reader, your couch, your rules.

Starting today, both my-notes.dragas.net and it-notes.dragas.net are changing the way they distribute content - on RSS and on the Fediverse alike.

No more excerpts. No more "read more" links. Full posts, delivered directly to you, wherever you choose to read them.

Here's why:
I don't run ads. I don't have paywalls. I don't sell attention, or measure success in page views. I never have, and I have no intention of starting. My blogs exist because I enjoy writing, and because
some of what I write might be useful - or simply enjoyable - to someone else.
That's the whole business model. There isn't one.

When that's the case, there's no reason to keep content behind a click.
Sending you a teaser and asking you to visit my site would only make sense if I needed you *on my site* - for an impression, for a conversion, for something. I don't. So why would I make you leave your reader, your client, your comfortable corner of the internet, just to come to mine?

What I want instead is simple: that you can read what I write the way you'd read a book on a cold winter evening, wrapped in a warm blanket. Privately.
Quietly. On your own terms, in your own space, without anything tracking your eyes or nudging you toward something else.

Your RSS reader is yours. Your Fediverse instance is yours. The content should be yours too.

If you're on the Fediverse, you can follow both accounts directly:

- my-notes → @mynotes

- it-notes → @itnotes

These are low-traffic accounts. If you don't want them to get lost in your timeline, feel free to hit the notification bell. I promise it won't make much noise.

So from now on, it will be.

Flare just got a big update!

We’ve added official Nostr support, including login, timelines, notifications, posting, replies, quotes, media upload, and relay management.

On iOS, we’ve also refreshed key parts of the UI with cleaner navigation, and a more polished tab experience.

What comes next will go even further: Flare is about to tear down one of the biggest walls in social networking: language itself.

Alt-Bots im Fediverse: Warum sie für blinde Menschen wichtig sind

Im Fediverse tauchen jeden Tag unzählige Bilder auf. Fotos, Screenshots, Memes, Grafiken und Videos. Das Problem kennt man: Oft fehlt der Alt-Text komplett. Hier hilft ein Altbot, er erkennt Bilder ohne Bildbeschreibung

Jeder (Self-)Hoster kennt diesen Moment:
Update klicken, kurz die Luft anhalten und hoffen, dass nicht wieder PHP, Datenbank oder Desktop-Client beschließen, heute kreativ zu werden.
Nach Jahren mit Nextcloud habe ich 2026 für meinen eigenen Usecase die Reißleine gezogen. Nicht aus Dogmatismus. Sondern weil digitale Souveränität für mich am besten funktioniert, wenn Infrastruktur wieder ein bisschen langweilig wird.
Darum bin ich bei #OpenCloud gelandet.
Schlanker, fokussierter, weniger bewegliche Teile. Kein PHP. Keine Datenbank. Go-basiert, unter 200 MB RAM im Idle. Auf K3s mit ZFS-Snapshots dahinter läuft das sehr viel näher an „funktioniert“ als an „braucht Aufmerksamkeit“.
Und dahinter steckt das Team von #mailbox.org,  #Heinlein Support. Kein US-Risikokapital, kein Exit-Druck. Keine fragwürdige Eigentümerstruktur. Einfach Leute, die seit 30 Jahren für datenschutzkonforme Infrastruktur in Deutschland kämpfen. Das ist kein Zufall, das ist eine Entscheidung.
Der schönste Nebeneffekt:
OpenCloud wurde bei mir quasi nebenbei zur souveränen E-Book-Bibliothek. DRM-freie EPUBs auf dem Boox Go 7, ohne Amazon-Ökosystem, ohne Plattform-Lock-in, ohne das übliche „wir kennen deinen Geschmack besser als du selbst“.
Amazon weiß sehr genau, was du liest, wann du liest, wie schnell du liest und wo du aufgehört hast. Das ist keine Paranoia. Das steht in deren  AGB.
Genau da wird digitale Souveränität sehr konkret:
nicht als politische Folie, sondern als gelebter Alltag.
Eigene Dateien - eigene Infrastruktur - eigene Regeln - eigene Verantwortung.
Wie der Umzug lief, wo die kleinen HTTPS-/Traefik-Fallen lagen und warum weniger Komplexität manchmal der eigentliche Fortschritt ist:

Mir ist bewusst, dass es auf Mastodon sehr viel vor allem „progressive“ Hochmut gegenüber Süddeutschland und insbesondere Bayern gibt.

Gleichwohl muss ich doch als (nicht-bayerischer) Wissenschaftler klarstellen: #Bayern baut seit Jahren die erneuerbaren Friedens-, Wohlstands- und Heimatenergien massiv (!) aus, hat mehr Solarpaneele als Baden-Württemberg (Platz 2) und Nordrhein-Westfalen (Platz 3) zusammen!

Sogar der FW-Minister Aiwanger hat inzwischen kapiert, dass Landkreise wie Wunsiedel durch die Energiewende reicher werden!

Auch international ist #Solarboom in oft konservativem Umfeld, beispielsweise in #Pakistan. Erneuerbare #Wohlstandsenergien boomen, weil sie sich lohnen!

Die Solarpunk-Zukunft ist dezentral, also regional & föderal…

@ithoughtisawa2 @mathaetaes

When all communication breaks down and you reach a point where reaching out no longer has value, the goal becomes warning others.

So let me be blunt: I wanted him to be the last person to see this, in order to buy time.

As shown in the original post screenshot, I reached out and was consistently ignored. I even created a new account, and that was suppressed as well.

I’m also not the only person who has experienced this — so warning others was the point.

#InfoSec #Mastodon #Fediverse

@AmbianceAsunder @ithoughtisawa2 @mathaetaes

Sure, I can provide a screenshot from a direct message I sent 2 months ago.

But I would also like to provide a URL to his site showing how he suspends my account remotely. I have never been a member of his site, nor do I recall previously communicated with Jeffy before he took these actions.

As such, I doubt he he has any interest in even receiving my communication, or anyone else's for that matter.

Here is URL on how any account I have is displayed on Infosec.exchange

22 people have come forward, so it isn't just me. But Jerry from Infosec doesn't want you know this.

So here is a screenshot of what is happening.

The problem is you may be missing people you follow or who wish to follow you, and you don't even know it because he's hiding it all from you.

#InfoSec #Fediverse #Mastodon

Alt...

I don’t know what @jerry has against me, but they always blacklist my account. I’ve asked about it and never received a reply. From what I understand, they do this to a number of other people — it’s not just me. The issue is that their 11,000+ users are unaware that their admin filters who they can and cannot follow. It would be one thing if they were filtering out hate speech, spam, and the usual nonsense. But people like me are pro-LGBTQ+, support trans rights and women’s rights, and are more progressive than Bernie Sanders. If @jerry simply didn’t like me personally, I could respect them blocking me themselves. But the fact that they make that decision for everyone means someone you follow can vanish without notice — and you’d be none the wiser.

People over at InfoSec really do have a censored viewpoint.

The hasthag "Mastodon" and "Fediverse" for example, need approval and has not been updated for 1, 2, and 5 days ago.

The @HolosSocial team is planning to implement the same encryption standard as Mastodon, Bonfire, and Emissary.

Holos will update its E2EE model to align with the shared spec, shipped well before 2027 and landing in the Fediverse first. Mastodon will likely make its own choices later on, and Holos will adapt again to stay compatible. No problem.

The #BlueSkyOutage is why I still rely on and prefer Mastodon for my social media. I'm on Bluesky, but giving all control to one company is not what I want again. There is always a chance an instance goes down, but not the whole #Fediverse.

#Fedle source code is now available on #Codeberg.

https://codeberg.org/tom79/Fedle

It is a daily word game for the #Fediverse that currently supports English and French.

I added a small doc explaining how to submit a new language, which will be automated by a bot once validated.

See

Fedle is really new in the Fediverse but you're more than welcome to join the game. Keep sharing :)

It's been a while since I touched https://jointhefediverse.net. Does it still work for explaining what the fediverse is, and help people get started?

Eurosky launched https://portal.eurosky.tech today (oh the timing), and it's a neat little website.

A lot of the fediverse resource sites are comparatively more barebones and seemingly aimed at a more technical audience.

If you've been wondering about contributing somewhere, this could be an opportunity?

Since there is no revoking sessions in Pixelfed, and changing password doesn't log you out of any sessions, be careful with your Pixelfed credentials.

If you use Pixelfed and your account gets hacked, you can't do anything. Perhaps contacting Dansup is the only option.

#Fedle is now in testing!

A daily word guessing game played directly on the #Fediverse, inspired by #Wordle / #Sutom. Guess the word in 6 attempts, challenge with other instances.

Follow the bot to play:

FR: @Fedle_fr
EN: @Fedle_en

More info: https://fedle.fedilab.app

Still in early testing, so feedback and bug reports welcome! Boosts appreciated. Thank you

I have been working on the fediverse word game. It now has a name: #Fedidle (fedi + riddle).

How a day will look:

12:00 UTC: bot posts the word to guess (followers only for better moderation and spoiler prevention)
11:55 UTC next day: game ends, bot posts public results

No time pressure. Play whenever you want. Just finish before 11:55 UTC the next day.

Screenshot of a Fedle game in progress on Mastodon. The french bot @Fedle_fr displays attempt 2 of 6 with colored letter tiles: green for correct position, yellow for misplaced, and gray for absent. Two guesses are shown: ABSCISSES and ABAISSAIT. 4 attempts remaining.
