        🚀 How to increase Mastodon character limit WITHOUT forking!

        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! 🛠️

        The Secret Sauce:
        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.
        2️⃣ Frontend: Create a local copy of compose_form_container.js and set the fallback limit to 7500.
        3️⃣ Config: In your docker-compose.yml, mount these files and add:
        MAX_TOOT_CHARS=7500
        MAX_STATUS_CHARS=7500

        Why this rocks:
        ✅ Update-proof: Official updates won't overwrite your limits.
        ✅ Zero Build Time: No waiting for hours to compile assets.
        ✅ Mobile Ready: Tusky/Ivory will auto-detect the new limit via API.

          "Open" LLM models are almost never Open Source.

          They are "Open Weights." This means the company allows you to run the model, but you have no right to see how it was made or what data it was trained on.

          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.

              Yesterday I submitted the first "public" build of MastoBlaster to Apple, and it is now under review. 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!

                    Meine Frau und ich hatten gestern die Frage, ob ein Wechsel von zum Fediverse als Trainer:in sinnvoll möglich ist.

                    Politisch, ganz klar ja.

                    Doch auf LinkedIn macht man ja in gewisser Weise PR oder auch Werbung für sich und sie war sich nicht sicher, ob das im überhaupt erwünscht ist.

                    Wie sehr ihr das?
                    Wie handhabt ihr das?
                    Welche Erfahrungen habt ihr damit?

                      Hallo zusammen!

                      Ich verlasse anonsys.net und schlage mein Lager auf meiner eigenen Ein-Nutzer-Instanz auf. Ab sofort findet ihr mich dauerhaft hier:

                      Das Ganze läuft als Docker-Setup. Während die Föderation sich gerade erst so richtig einspielt, hoffe ich, dass die Kiste stabil bleibt und ich dort langfristig mein digitales Zuhause finde.

                      An die Admin-Community:
                      Da ich gerade noch mit dem Self-Hosting experimentiere: Habt ihr Tipps zur Wartung oder Performance-Optimierung von Friendica unter Docker? Wie regelt ihr eure Backups am effizientesten?

                      Ich freue mich über jeden, der mir an die neue Adresse folgt und vielleicht den einen oder anderen Admin-Kniff parat hat.

                      Man sieht sich drüben! 👋

                                        I've recently completed a short story. 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!

                                          This morning I got informed that the peer-to-peer streaming Peertube is much safer than I thought it was. While it is a P2P, there is no need to use VPN for it because it's hard to track viewers anyway.

                                          "In theory, someone with enough technical skills could create a script that tracks which IP is downloads which video. In practice, this is much more difficult because:
                                          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."

                                              I notice that the /people/ section of snac gives broken links to follower and followee profiles.

                                              For instance entries for mastodon users are like this:

                                              https://mastodon.social/ap/users/253190229248136435

                                              Which appears to be an API endpoint rather than a web link. Links like this lead to a not found page.

                                                It's probably less of a problem now that the fediverse is much bigger (than it was 5 years ago). 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.

                                                                                    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. […]

                                                                                          We're Dreaming (weredreaming.com) is an attempt at having an instance with permanence. It is where I plan to write and post without having posts disappear when I move instances, because it's obvious I'll always want to be building and destroying instances.

                                                                                          I'm still figuring out what I'll be posting here and what I'll be posting at We're Dreaming. But the initial thought is that more personal posts will go on We're Dreaming along with my movie posts.

                                                                                          I have already followed those of you that I interact with on a regular basis, if you wouldn't mind following back that would be awesome.

                                                                                          I am keeping the We're Dreaming account as one where I approve followers.

                                                                                                                            Als ich 2018/19 mit meinem Raumschiff von Twitter floh, landete ich zunächst auf dem Planeten Mastodon. Damals noch ganz kuschelig, manchmal wenig los. Ich bin auf Mastodon mehrmals umgezogen, es wurde voller, aber etwas fehlte mir immer. Mehr Zeichen. Ich bin Vielschreiber und das werdet ihr gleich merken😉😁 Schon auf Twitter haben mich die 500 Zeichen genervt und ich habe endlose Threads geschrieben. Erst dachte ich, dass es total kompliziert wäre auf anderen Planeten zu landen und mich schon wieder mit einer neuen Software vertraut zu machen und zögerte lange. Aber als ich mich endlich traute zu Misskey umzuziehen mit Sack und Followern, stellt ich fest, dass es ganz einfach war. Ich weiß gar nicht mehr, wie viele Zeichen ich dort hatte, aber bald zog es mich zu Sharkey. Erst mit nem Zweitaccount, dann als Hauptaccount. 3000 Zeichen waren für mich sehr überzeugend. Dazu die vielen Möglichkeiten der Gestaltung. Ich kann zwischen Farbschemen wählen bei der Darstellung der Oberfläche, die Grafik der Timelinedarstellung ändern und alles komplett auf hell oder dunkel stellen. Die Schriftgröße ist einstellbar was für mich wichtig ist wegen einer Augenkrankheit. Mit einer Liste, in die ich ausgewählte Accounts eintragen kann, kann ich immer schauen,.was meine Liebsten so machen ohne sie zu suchen in der TL. Es gibt noch viele Funktionen mehr die ich nicht so brauche, wie Antennen. Aber ich habe keine bevorzugten Hashtags oder welche, die ich blocken will. Was ich richtig liebe sind die Reaktionen anstelle von faves es oder Likes. Es gibt eine große Palette von unterschiedlichen Emojis, auch animierten, die ich als Reaktion zu einem bestimmten Post oder Kommentar verwenden kann. Das ist viel aussagekräftiger und macht Spaß. Ich persönlich habe zwei Sharkey Accounts. Diesen hier und ein Backup Account, den ich auch dazu nutze nur mit meinen Lieblingsaccounts zu kommunizieren. Mehre Accounts machen eh Spaß. Ich habe auch Pixelfed für Fotos, Mastodon für meine dänische Bubble, Loops ( wofür weiß ich noch nicht).
                                                                                                                            Ich liebe das Fediverse, weil hier noch Diskussionen auf Augenhöhe und mit Respekt und Erkenntnisgewinn möglich sind. Ich mag die aggressive Kommunikation auf den kommerziellen Plattformen nicht und bin froh, dass die Reichweiten Junkie weitergezogen sind. Auch hier gibt es Brüllaffen, aber die blocke ich halt sofort. Ich mag, dass wir im Großen und Ganzen aufeinander Rücksicht nehmen und vor allem die Hilfsbereitschaft. Unter

Und ich liebe, dass wir alle hier miteinander verbunden sind, egal in welcher Ecke des Fediverse wir gerade sind.

                                                                                                                                                        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.

                                                                                                                                                        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.

                                                                                                                                                        In short: same FediMeteo you are used to, but with more context, clearer signals, and fewer surprises.

Most people who get stuff done have to go off-spec to actually ship.

                                                                                                                                                                            This seems a fundamental weakness of the - and that disregarding the limitations coming from base architecture. Seems to pose a mid/long-term existential threat.
