    "O fediverso é anticapitalista. O fediverso é a práxis anarquista. O fediverso não é um protocolo. O fediverso carrega uma ideologia de cuidado comunitário e ajuda mútua para nossos semelhantes. O fediverso nunca deve ser neutro em relação à ideologia. As ferramentas que estamos construindo fornecem infraestrutura para comunicação, mas também moldam essa comunicação."

      Ach ich mags ja bunt!
      Auf dem Weg zum Spocht bin ich an diesem Haus vorbegekommen. Muss ein absoluter Italien-Fan sein... Wegweiser zeigen u.a. nach Sizilien. Liebs sehr!

      Moin und euch einen gesunden Start in diesen Mittwoch. Alles wird gut 🙏

      Im Zentrum steht ein hölzerner Wegweiser, an dem viele bunte Pfeile mit chinesischen Segenssprüchen (wie „Glück“, „Reichtum“ und „Frieden“) angebracht sind, gekrönt von einem kleinen Vogelhäuschen. Links daneben leuchtet die orangefarbene Mauer, die über und über mit Topfpflanzen und Blumen geschmückt ist – einige stehen auf hellblauen, säulenartigen Podesten. Ein leuchtend roter Briefkasten setzt einen weiteren Farbakzent. Rechts befindet sich ein silbernes Metalltor mit der Hausnummer „76“ (Lide St.).

                                          Die große Frage für mich ist: Zählen doe Fediverse-Instanzen als "Social-Media-Platformen" im Sinne des Papiers? Oder im juristischen Sinne? Gibt es überhaupt eine juristische Definition des Begriffs?

                                                                                  It all works great, but - each time it fully discharges I need to press ON button.

                                                                                  I want to bypass it with a mosfet - connect gate to battery pack output and wire drain and source to button pins.

                                                                                  I need help with understanding:

                                                                                            Tired of the "merge hell" when updating your custom Mastodon build? You can change the 500-char limit to 7500 (or more) while staying on the official Docker images.

                                                                                            This works perfectly for Mastodon v4.3.0+ and @Coolify users! 🛠️

                                                                                            Instead of rebuilding the image, we use Docker Volume Mounts to overlay two specific files and set Environment Variables.

                                                                                            1️⃣ Backend: Create a local copy of status_length_validator.rb with MAX_CHARS = 7500.

                                                                                            3️⃣ Config: In your docker-compose.yml, mount these files and add:
                                                                                            MAX_TOOT_CHARS=7500

                                                                                              We need to stop letting companies redefine "Open Source" to mean "available for download." Words have meanings.

                                                                                              If a company claims they are open source but plans to "someday" release the code, or hides the training data, they are a poser. This is "Open Washing." They are co-opting the term to earn the community's goodwill for marketing without actually respecting the four freedoms.

Once it's approved, I'll share the link with a few people for testing and gradually expand the beta as we go.

                                                                                                  The goal is to provide a public beta to the entire Fediverse before the official release, so everyone can try it out. I've already been using it as my primary app for several days and, aside from a few bugs I still need to fix, it’s working well.

                                                                                                  Stay tuned!

                                                                                                        Politisch, ganz klar ja.

Where does a writer of somewhat queer fiction go to get their work published? I know nothing at all about that world beyond the ancient traditions of literary agents and traditional publishing houses. Boosts and advice greatly appreciated. Thank you!

While it is a P2P, there is no need to use VPN for it because it's hard to track viewers anyway.

                                                                                                                              An HTTP request must be sent to each tracker for each video to spy. To spy all the videos on PeerTube, we need to send as many requests as there are videos (so potentially a lot)
                                                                                                                              For each request sent, the tracker returns a limited number of random peers. For example, if there are 1000 peers in the swarm and the tracker only sends 20 peers for each request, there must be at least 50 requests sent to know every peer in the swarm
                                                                                                                              These requests need to be sent regularly to know who is starting/stopping a video. It is easy to detect that kind of behaviour
                                                                                                                              If an IP address is stored in the tracker, it doesn't mean that the person behind the IP (if they exist) has watched the video
                                                                                                                              The IP address is a vague information: it usually changes regularly and can represent many persons or entities
                                                                                                                              Web peers are not publicly accessible: because we use the websocket transport, the protocol is different from classic BitTorrent trackers. Peers in a web browser send a signal containing the IP address to the tracker, which randomly selects other peers to forward the information to."

But one of the things I've heard puts newbies off alternative social apps/ networks is too much meta-discussion about development and deployment of the apps/ networks themselves.

                                                                                                                                    Maybe we could agree on a standard way of tagging this stuff (eg )? Then the DevMeta tag could be filtered out by default for newbies.

Are there any Loops servers that are popular outside of loops[dot]video? Every time I see someone link to a Loops account, it's on loops[dot]video. I actually think Loops is a really cool idea; that's why I would really hate to see a monopoly.

Die Planung läuft plattformunabhängig im Browser. Den Dienst kann man auch selber hosten, was für mich wieder interessant war.

Dies ist also der erste geplante Beitrag von mir über fediplan, welches nun auf meinem Server läuft.

Gemeinden kämpfen mit knappen Ressourcen zwischen Webseiten, Apps und Tools. Social Media wird da oft als Stress empfunden, bei dem nur die „gefühlte Reichweite“ zählt.

                                                                                                                                                          Das Problem: Wie bekommen wir nicht nur Funktionäre, sondern echte Menschen aus den Gemeinden hierher? Wie zeigen wir, dass es um Gemeinschaft geht, nicht um Mehrarbeit? Tipps? 🤔

                                                                                                                                                                      Der Anlass für diesen Versuch ist die Ankündigung von Michael Blume am 27.01.2026, seine Serie des „morgendlichen Tässle Kaffee“ auf Mastodon zu beenden. Er schreibt, er stelle sich „mit Klarnamen täglich Anwürfen und Angriffen anonymer Accounts“ und beende seine jahrelange Serie als Zeichen stillen Protests in Folge der Attacken gegen ihn am Holocaust-Gedenktag. Dieser Vorgang macht mich betroffen und weckt in mir den Wunsch, ihm beizuspringen. Mehr noch aber führt Michael mir vor Augen, wie dringend es ist, hinsichtlich des Gebrauchs von Klarnamen, Pseudonymen und Kampfnamen begrifflich Klarheit zu gewinnen. Diese Klärung ist Ziel dieses Essays. Der bürgerliche Name stellt keine neutrale Form politischer Verantwortlichkeit dar, sondern er stellt eine institutionelle Kopplung zwischen Person, Biographie und politischer Äußerung her – mit erheblichen Folgen für Anerkennung, Konfliktverarbeitung und demokratische Deliberation. Es hat Gründe, warum Willy Brandt nicht als Herbert Ernst Karl Frahm in Erinnerung ist. Mein Ausgangspunkt ist, Identität als fragile Erzählung zu begreifen. In einer individualisierten Gesellschaft wird gerade dadurch jede politische Äußerung zum persönlichen Risiko. Denn die Poppersche Trennung von Person und Idee ist nicht gesichert. Pseudonymität und institutionelle Entpersonalisierung verstehe ich deshalb als Technik, politische Teilhabe zu stabilisieren. Das zeigt gerade der Blick auf Pseudonyme und Kampfnamen in der Geschichte. Namensführung verhält sich stets eben auch zur Struktur von Öffentlichkeiten. […]

                                                                                                                                                                                                From now on, forecasts are richer, clearer, and a bit smarter, without losing the familiar, readable style.

                                                                                                                                                                                                You will now see more complete current conditions at a glance: feels-like temperature, humidity, pressure, visibility, UV index, and wind gusts, all grouped in a dedicated Details section. Sunrise and sunset times for the current day are also included.

                                                                                                                                                                                                The wind line is back in focus, clearly highlighted for current conditions, and gusts are shown separately using 💨 emoji so they are easy to spot and not confused with average wind.

                                                                                                                                                                                                Pressure is no longer just a number: FediMeteo now shows a real pressure trend over the last few hours, telling you if it is rising, falling, or staying stable.

                                                                                                                                                                                                Everything is fully localised. Labels like “feels like”, section titles, and weather descriptions are consistent across languages, and all weather conditions are now covered everywhere.
