Yay, an AI account

We don't have a rule against this here but we need one.

One thing that is a red flag is they all use the same limited randomized vocabulary.

I'm seeing things like the word "Brooklyn" a lot.

Auf dem Informatik-Festival spricht Anja Obermüller heute zu Mastodon und zum Fediverse.
Die Gesellschaft für Informatik ist schon länger auf Mastodon aktiv.
Die Veranstaltung heute ist dem wichtigen Thema gewidmet
"Digitale Souveränität - Now or Never"

👉 https://pak-digs.gi.de/veranstaltung/digitale-souveraenitaet-now-or-never-mit-macher-werkstatt

@informatik @DresdnerForschungswerk
#Mastodon #Informatik #Fediverse #digitaleSouveränität #informatik26

Seit ihrer letzten Jahresversammlung vor einem Jahr hat die Gesellschaft für Informatik (GI) die Followerzahl auf dem Mastodon-Account @informatik von 2.4 k auf mehr als 3.7 k erhöht.
Das sind mehr als +50% in einem Jahr. Und die Marke von 4.000 wird auch bald geknackt.

Und vielleicht schafft es die GI in nächster Zeit sogar, einen PeerTube-Kanal für ihre Video-Fans anzubieten – so wie es @fsfe und @digiges_de schon tun.
Hier im Fediverse würden das sicher viele begrüßen.

This is the first genuinely operational littleFedi instance.

It has been online since 1st July, is single-user (just me), and runs on a Raspberry Pi Zero W powered by NetBSD, directly on its SD card.

It consumes just under 1W.

Its database is this size:

-rw------- 1 little wheel 109289472 Aug 26 15:14 littlefedi.db

That is, just a little over 100 MB. Yes, MB.

Its average CPU load is extremely low.

It is perfectly usable both from the web interface and from Mastodon API apps.

I have 401 followers and 169 followings, and it doesn't bat an eye.

I promise myself to use it more, and I will.

You don't need Big Tech to communicate with others.

You don't need an expensive data center to exist online.

Because we are people, and the bits are just extensions of our voice.

EDIT: littleFedi allows to transform posts into blog posts, having its own SSG (Static Site Generator). The one generated by this post is reachable by clicking here.

We're also updating the look of profiles, alongside many quality of life and accessibility improvements. Read more here:

After all these years I am still frustrated with the #fediverse.

1. I want a way to not see bots. Any bots. I only want to see words from humans. This was brought up as a requested feature years ago for Mastodon and has gone ignored. I'm not aware of any other software that offers it.

2. I need a way to accurately filter languages OR seamlessly translate them.

3. The reach and interaction for smaller accounts seems worse on fediverse than on major platforms, and it was already bad there. I know that's not everyone's experience, but it's mine. I've tried limiting to quality posts. I've tried increasing volume. Nothing seems to work. Maybe I'm just a shitty account, but then again I see far worse accounts with far more followers and interactions. Maybe I just don't "get" social media.

4. I need a better way to filter stuff I don't care about. Right now you have to go into your settings and add one filter or phrase per entry. Iceshrimp's hard filters with regex don't even seem to work.

5. The new user experience. It's what puts a ton of people off using this ecosystem. One of the fediverse's biggest strengths is also one of its biggest weaknesses. The reason I hear from people all the time about why they don't make an account here is because it's confusing to them. This has been brought up a lot and is still an issue.

6. Search experience is pretty bad. It's slow, the results are bloated, and I can't easily refine it.

7. Last and most importantly, I need an algorithm.

If anyone read anything I said, this is where I'd tell you to put down the pitchforks and hear me out first. I know "algorithm" is a dirty word here. It hearkens back to old days where the faceless corporation decided what was worthy to be seen.

But it doesn't need to be that way. Imagine an algorithm that is 100% visible and controllable by you. Maybe there's a group of people that posts nothing but high-resolution photographs of every blade of grass they see, and while you don't want to knock their hobby or anything, maybe that's just not what you want to see all of the time.

In a chronological only feed, the people that post the most are the most likely to succeed in getting any traction. That means that people who post less (and by less I still mean several times every day) get lost in the noise. I've had to unfollow several people on here that I like a lot because they simply posed too much. I don't like doing that.

The trending feed (the instance/software I'm on doesn't have one of these) also mostly benefits those who already have a large following.

With a user-defined algorithm you could have a home page that is set to show a more equal distribution from everyone you follow. You could set it to prioritize posts from users who don't post that much. You could easily define separate feeds for specific interests. Maybe you like, I don't know, home made soap, but there's like three accounts that post soap pics every five seconds. You could set it so that their posts are buffered, or lower their visibility priority.

All this would only be for you. It wouldn't have to affect the whole site universally, and could again be tweaked or even disabled as needed. Heck you could even make it so you could share configs, or use multiple different configs.

Your garden is a reflection of your soul,so let it bloom brightly.

The EU regulation exempts several categories from its scope:

- Not-for-profit online encyclopedias
- Not-for-profit educational and scientific repositories
- Services designed purely for educational purposes within educational institutions
- Open-source software-developing and-sharing platforms (unless the platform itself is an AI system)
- Services specifically for scientific research and development
- Services operated by public authorities

So Mastodon instances and other fediverse servers might eventually need to register🤷‍♀️

Hey everyone,

@casey and @aseelfromgz had the honour of speaking to two families from Gaza today and we’d like to welcome them to Gaza Verified.

They are:

• Family in Gaza (@gaza_hope)
• mohammed_gaza_ps (@mohammed_gaza_ps)

Please give them a warm welcome to Mastodon and to the fediverse, follow their accounts, and donate to their fundraisers if you can (and please share this so others can do the same).

Also, remember that you can find all our families who have fundraisers listed at the following page, ordered by those who have received the least in donations over the last week (on a rolling basis):

https://gaza-verified.org/donate/

Thank you for making Mastodon and the fediverse a safe space for our friends in Gaza and for your support.

💕

We talk a lot about digital sovereignty.

But who controls the vulnerability intelligence our infrastructure depends on?

Who owns the identifiers? Who controls the databases? Who decides when information becomes public? Who controls the models interpreting it?

Maybe sovereignty starts with the data.

👉 I’ll be discussing this through Vulnerability-Lookup, @gcve, open AI and the Fediverse at @oscl October 7.

Guten Morgen und schönes Wochenende!

Habt ihr Tipps wie man schnell an eine günstige Wohnung oder Zimmer in Bremen kommen kann? Es wird eher eine Übergangslösung gesucht, für während der Probezeit, danach eventuell länger, aber vermutlich ziehe ich dann eher in was größeres.

Für Oktober würde mir auch eine Couch oder so erstmal reichen, irgendwas, damit ich ab 1.Oktober in einen Job in Bremen starten kann.

Bitte teilen.

Vielleicht liegt es daran, dass #Datev eine #Genossenschaft ist. In jedem Fall scheint sich ein Redakteur des DATEV Magazin für kommunistische Beuteltiere zu begeistern.

In der aktuellen Ausgabe 9/26 wird jedenfalls im Zusammenhang mit einem absurden Versuch eines betrunkenen PKWfahrers die eigenen Blutwerte zu erklären, über die Vorlieben des #Känguru von @marcuwekling für Prapsschnalinen gesprochen.

Liebes DATEV,

falls da also irgendwo bei Euch ein echter Fan von Marc-Uwe ist, dann habt Ihr sicher schon die Känguru Rebellion gelesen und kennt inzwischen auch den #DiDay und den Bedarf nach #DigitalerSouveränität. Kommt folglich gern auch ins #Fediverse und vor allem befreit unsere #Steuerberater- #Software von #Microsoft!

Liebes Fediverse,

wenn wir mit diesem Post bei #Fediwings eine Netto-Reichweite von min. 50.000 erreichen, schreiben wir Datev noch ne Email zu diesen Wünschen und eine der großartigen Postkarten von @sabrinkmann

Zu sehen ist Seite 38 des DATEV Magazin 9/2026. Dort ist ein Bilde einer fast leeren Pralinenschachtel zu sehen sowie nachfolgender Text zu lesen: "Schnapspralinen haben literarisch schon einmal Karriere gemacht: als bevorzugte Energiequelle eines anarchischen Kängu- rus in Werken von Marc-Uwe Kling. Vor dem Amtsgericht Frankfurt am Main aber ging es weniger um Kleinkunst als um Blutalkohol. Ein Autofahrer war nachts in Hofheim mit 1,32 Promille kontrolliert worden. Getrunken habe er nichts, beteuerte er. Schuld seien vielmehr Pralinen, tisch- tennisballgroß und alkoholisch offenbar von erheblichem Ehrgeiz. Der Körper, so die Verteidigung im Kern, habe sich nicht an einer Bar, sondern an der Confiserie berauscht. Das Gericht blieb unbeeindruckt: Für den gemessenen Wert wären etwa 0,2 bis 0,3 Liter Hochprozentiges nötig gewesen. Umgerechnet in die vertraute Maßeinheit des deutschen Schnapspralinenwesens, entspricht das mindestens 132 Pralinen der Marke Mon Chéri. Das ist kein Dessert mehr, sondern ein Ernährungskonzept. Am Ende stand ein Urteil wegen vorsätzlicher Trunkenheit im Verkehr. Das angebliche Missverständnis in der Patisserie ließen die Richter nicht gelten. Die Fahrerlaubnis war fort, die Pointe blieb: Wer Alkohol als Praline tarnt, sollte nicht erwarten, dass das Strafrecht ihn als Naschkatze behandelt."

Morning #fediverse. My day started off to the sound of several firetrucks and cops responding to an emergency. And I thought "wow, that sounds kinda close". I get up and look out my window and can clearly see a house engulfed in flames directly behind a house across the street. #omgwtf

The flames were well over 10 feet tall and growing, as conditions are very dry in this area. It grew fast, but it was under control pretty quickly.

The fire department has put out the fire, but there is still a big smoke plume while they are fighting all the smoldering remains in an attempt to prevent a new fire. This is an abandoned house that #tweakers keep squatting in. These dumbfucks caught another abandoned house on fire 2 weeks ago. Both of the aforementioned houses are beyond repair now.

What a way to start a #Sunday. #tweakers suck.

In my search for a new #Sharkey server to join, one of my criteria has been that it not be located in a place where the government has or is working on a broad social media ban, for fear that these servers will be shut down.

Problem: most Fedi servers are hosted in one of those places.

Chat, am I being dumb? Should I just pick a server now and migrate later if the local government really is crazy enough to start shutting down Fedi sites?

Unser Fotobeitrag zum Gewinnspiel von C.H. Beck. Leider findet das Gewinnspiel nur bei #Instagram und per Mail statt. Lasst gerne einen #Boost da, damit wir C.H. Beck zeigen können, dass ein Account im #Fediverse eine gute Sache wäre. :D

Zu sehen sind die zwei Inhaber:innen der Buchhandlung am Brühl in Chemnitz. Hinten ihnen steht ein lebensgroßer Pappaufsteller von Freddie Mercury, der seine rechte Faust in die Luft reckt und unter seinem linken Arm das neu erschienene Buch "Ein Leben in Songs" von C. H. Beck trägt.
