Started this piefed.social community a while ago, forgot about it.

You can post to the lemmyverse there from here, the mastodonverse.

I can explain

but just tag @listenparty

(that's @ listenparty @ piefed.social)

and it works.

The tags become categories you can search through the word cloud there.

You want to do a clean title or it comes in as garbage and I'll just delete over on that end.

I have the front page set up in wide tile view and it looks like album covers that way so I suggest attaching a nice rich graphic and a link to the place where you can listen to it.

You can tag by songs or albums, etc. and filter that way there.

There's not much in there but I think I'll start adding to it again

:)

Wir haben Erklärbären gespielt, Vorzüge gepredigt, Instanzen empfohlen.
Ergebnis? „Zu kompliziert!“, „Hier ist nix los!“, „Wo ist der Algorithmus, der mich beschimpft?“ 🙄

GENUG MISSIONIERT! 🤚
Wir gründen jetzt die ultimative Instanz für gescheiterte Fediverse-Aktivisten. 💪

Wie nennen wir das Elend?

Booty shorts that say "asstodon" (merch from mastodon the band)

Liveblog, the new Mastodon interface designed for live events e.g. watch parties, faced the acid test of #Monsterdon (+ #MonsterMiru) last night... & survived!

• Let me post without having to worry about entering multiple hashtags every time (Mastodon web's capricious hashtag autocomplete is the most frustrating "feature" for me during watch parties)
• It auto-refreshed & kept up with the flow; maybe not as instant as plain Mastodon, Liveblog perhaps every 1-3 seconds, but definitely good enough. (For me at least; at one point another user said Liveblog would only update every ~60 seconds for them IIRC. At the exact same time, it was working fine for me. 🤷‍♂️)
• Enough vertical space for me in my laptop side-by-side watch party setup to be able to see 1-4 posts (depending on their content)

Drawbacks last night (it's under development, & changes/new features are being added daily):

• Couldn't click on a post to see its parent/thread
• Couldn't edit a post
• No notification sounds. Not an issue for me, as I have Mastodon pinned as one of my essential tabs in Zen Browser so I heard notifications from that. (It would sound 3-5 seconds before appearing in Liveblog.)

I'm going to keep using Liveblog for watch parties. Give it a try yourself, watch partiers!

Screenshot of my laptop in watch party set-up, during #MonsterMiru pre-show before #Monsterdon 29 March 2026 Left: pop-out browser window showing video from miru.miyaku.media Right: Main browser window with Liveblog - Posting pane in minimal mode. Click "More" for adding media, poll, CW. - Hashtags #Monsterdon & #MonsterMiru already set, no need to keep adding them manually to posts. Later I also added #Critters, #Critters4 & #UltraQ (should have been #Ultraman, I now realize), adding or deleting when appropriate. - "Search" set to #Monsterdon so showing only posts with that tag. - Posts tagged #Monsterdon, with buttons to Reply, Boost, Favourite

@evan Wait, what? If I follow hashtags on one instance, I only see stuff from that instance? Something is rotten in the state of Denm... Eh, Mastodon. #mastodon #mastoadmin #mastolivre #masto

Noch einmal zur Erinnerung, heute Abend findet die Fediverse-Sprechstunde statt und ich denke mal, dass es eine spannende Diskussions- und Informationsrunde wird.

Thema heute wird die vielbeworbene "Reichweite im Fediverse" sein. "Reichweite", ein Begriff, der sich z.B. im SEO-Bereich gerne mit den Begriffen "REICHweitenoptimierung", "REICHweitenmaximierung" und "GEWINNmaximierung" u.ä. paart - und so überhaupt nicht ins Fediverse passt! Der Austausch darüber wird sicherlich sehr interessant. Wie ist die Erwartungshaltung, gerade von neuen Usern, wenn diese den Begriff "Reichweite" im Zusammenhang mit dem Fediverse lesen?

Tatsächlich kann man natürlich eine bestimmte Reichweite im Fediverse erzielen. Diese sollte man aber nicht zu Werbezwecken nutzen, sondern um sich mit Menschen zu verknüpfen und sich austauschen zu können. Denn dafür ist das Fediverse in erster Linie gemacht. "Reichweite" kommt nach einiger Zeit ganz automatisch, wenn man z.B. interessante Dinge postet, sich aktiv an Diskussionen/Gesprächen beteiligt usw. Dafür bedarf es keiner Reichweitenoptimierung, dies ist ein ganz natürlicher Prozess, je nachdem, wie aktiv man hier im Fediverse ist.

Meine persönliche Meinung (dazu hatte ich bereits am Samstag einen Post verpasst):

Menschen, die bewusst nach "Reichweite" streben, wollen häufig ihre Produkte vermarkten. Sie sehen das Fediverse als Erweiterung/Alternative Werbeplattform zu X, Facebook, Instagram und Co.

Wie weit ist also das Fediverse damit einverstanden, mit Werbung, die durch diese Reichweite entsteht, umzugehen? Wie viel Werbung können und werden wir akzeptieren? Und - ab wann ist Werbung eigentlich Werbung? Wie gehen wir als User mit anderen Usern/Accounts oder auch ganzen Instanzen um, die größtenteils nur im Fediverse sind, um ihre Produkte zu vermarkten? Und was passiert langfristig gesehen, wenn es immer mehr Accounts gibt, die nur aus diesem Grund ins Fediverse kommen?

Ich bin gespannt, wie die unterschiedlichen Meinungen sind zum Thema Reichweite!

Also, egal ob #althier oder #neuhier! Egal, welche Software du für den Zugang ins Fediverse nutzt, egal ob #Friendica, #Mastodon, #Sharkey & Co. - jeder kann daran teilnehmen.

Danke auch von mir an @oldkid , der einen wunderbaren Soundtrack dazu liefert! 😉

This is my new home.

Moving from @faab64@freefree.ps since the site is closing.

Sadly I am going to lose all my followers so I'm trying to rebuild it here.
UPDATE: Thanks to the tip from @astraleureka I have now all my old followers here. I am going to post here from today

I don't think I can retrieve my data so all my posts there are going to be gone when the site closes.

"Franklin Graham told Trump he can still get into Heaven" ... The evangelist's letter dated Oct '25, shared by Trump, highlights how faith can excuse even the worst behavior.

What else did he tell Taco?

- Suppress any evidence linking you to affairs, little girls and pool boys.

- Don't start an Asian land war that's really about regime change and oil.

- Do whatever Bibi tells you to do, so you don't appear to be Anti-Semitic.

This instance will be shut down on 2026-04-12 for legal reasons.

Why? I (@alxhu) came across the Mastodon Trademark Guidelines about one month ago, which prophibit the usage of the Mastodon wordmark in the domain name without written permission by the Mastodon GmbH.

When I created this instance, I didn't knew this. I immediatly asked for permission but didn't recieve an answer (even after messaging multiple times again), so I assume the answer is no

RE: https://mastodon.lgbt/@mastodonlgbt/116318629726348167

I will shut down mastodon.lgbt in about two weeks.

This instance (greifswald.lgbt) is NOT affected.

Hey everyone,

@aral 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:

• Magdy Salama🍉 (@Magdy___K12)
• Wedad Alwan (@najahalwan)

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.

💕

Added Mastodon to my IRC client so I could see my home feed on my second screen during the day. Hashtags are channels, etc. https://wiki.bitlbee.org/HowtoMastodon

I noticed a new cirled question-mark icon next to my Fediverse address on my Mastodon account.

Tapping it exposed a pop-up.

It seems like it is a message to me.

reiver is your username on this server. Someone on another server might have the same username. mastodon.social is your server that hosts your profile and posts. Just like you can send emails to people using different email clients, you can interact with people on other Mastodon servers – and with anyone on other social apps powered by the same set of rules as Mastodon uses (the ActivityPub protocol).

Following on from yesterday's blog post about the new design for profiles coming in Mastodon 4.6... here is the video of @imanijoy recent talk at @fossdesign where they discuss the challenges and detailed thought that goes into the design of new features (and the redesign of existing ones). 🖌️

Would you like to run your own Mastodon (ActivityPub) bot and don't know how?

Try my tool: https://github.com/nekromoff/mastodon-bots

Easy to install, easy to deploy a bot. And then your bot can do whatever you want - create posts, communicate with people, post images or just sit there doing nothing and being a bot.

I submitted a Pull Request to update MacPorts' snac to 2.91 here:

https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/31777

GitHub Continuous Integration checks are running, hopefully they will complete without issues?

Regardless, it's up to someone else with commit access to merge it!
