Announcing FediMeteo – Weather in the Fediverse!

UPDATE: I have created an account for updates and other information on FediMeteo - follow the account @admin to stay updated!

UPDATE: Ireland, Poland, Portugal and Switzerland have just been added

Weather has always influenced our lives: from agriculture to outdoor activities, to extreme events that, thanks to modern technology, can now be predicted with greater reliability. Personally, weather plays a significant role in my daily decisions, which is why I decided to create a service tailored for the Fediverse.

FediMeteo uses Open-Meteo data to publish updates every 6 hours, including current weather conditions, forecasts for the next 12 hours, and predictions for the upcoming days. Each country is served by its own dedicated instance (e.g., it.fedimeteo.com for Italy), managed through snac to ensure simplicity and efficiency in publishing.

You can follow FediMeteo directly in the Fediverse (on Mastodon and compatible platforms), via RSS, or by visiting the dedicated page for your city (e.g., fr.fedimeteo.com/paris).

Currently supported countries include:
Austria, Germany, France, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland and the United Kingdom, – with many more regions coming soon!

FediMeteo is hosted on a FreeBSD-based VPS, with each country isolated in its own jail to ensure security and scalability.

Visit the main site to explore the national instances and start following your local weather updates today:
https://fedimeteo.com

Happy weather monitoring to all! 🌦️

FediMeteo is dedicated to my grandfather, who every evening would give me the weather forecast based on TV, radio, and his personal experience. He would convince me that the weather would be bad, so he had an excuse to accompany me to school instead of me going alone.

We just rebuilt vir.group from the ground up. This is not a minor update. This is a fundamental rewrite of the product DNA.
https://vir.group
What changed:

ActivityPub integration is now fully native. Your posts reach the entire fediverse. Hundreds of millions of users across Mastodon, Bluesky, Threads, and dozens of other compatible platforms. No duplicate content. No managing multiple accounts. Post once. Reach the world.

Matrix protocol with E2EE encryption is now the default. Even we cannot read your messages. Session keys are yours alone. Recovery key gives you full control. Encrypted reactions, replies, edits, deletions. Works on mobile and web simultaneously.

Audio and video calls are built directly into the app. WebRTC with our own TURN relay in Europe. HD video. Noise suppression. CallKit on iOS. Push notifications on locked screen. No external links. No "let's switch to Zoom."

Projects hub is now a full marketplace. Publish your project with description, media, links, tags, and investor pitch. Categories for technology, art, education, manufacturing, services. Global reach via ActivityPub. Premium placement with 48-hour moderation. SEO optimization with short links and canonical URLs. Click analytics. Direct encrypted chat with interested parties.

Full feed control. Filter by words, topics, languages, domains. Mute, block, hide. Choose global, local, followed, trending, or your own custom lists. No algorithmic recommendations. You decide what you see.

Web version now matches mobile. Three columns. Composer. Side navigation. Same E2EE. Same calls coming soon. Responsive design that works on ultra-wide monitors without stretching one column across the screen.

This is not a social network. Not a messenger. Not a project marketplace. It is all three. Built for builders, creators, investors, and analysts.

Register in one minute. Publish your first project today.

When I moved into my current abode there was a brick buit conservatory, with a glass roof which was then incorporated into thr main living space. I love it because, in Winter, it givees me an extra hour of natural light. In summer in can get too bright and I don't like the boring sort of blinds there are for such glass roofs (plus way to pricey) so for some yers I've had what is usually used for shade outside, lightweight sun sails. This year I wanted to do something different and so voila, yesterday arrived a garden parasol. it's up inside and of course it hailed! However, when tth sun managed to sneak through for a couple of minutes I knew the idea worked, plus it felt really holiday (ish). I also have solar lights in the form of hot air balloons so it's fun. I've had ahem 'sophisticated ' spaces before but now I want fun spaces! I will post a couple of images, hail and parasol, in ffollowing posts. Have fun folks, it makes us stonger.

Rückblick: 3. Friendica-Admin-Treff 😊

Der 3. Friendica-Admin-Treff am Montag (11. Mai 2026) war wieder eine rundherum gelungene und sehr informative Veranstaltung.

Besonders schön war die tolle Stimmung und dass Teilnehmer aus ganz Deutschland mit dabei waren — von Norddeutschland über Sachsen bis hinunter nach Bayern. Entwickler und Admins gemeinsam an einem Tisch (bzw. am Bildschirm): Genau das macht diesen Austausch so wertvoll.

Themen des Abends waren unter anderem:

• das kommende Friendica-Release mit einigen wichtigen Verbesserungen
• die darin enthaltene „Verschlankung“ der Datenbank
• Erfahrungen und Herausforderungen bei größeren Updates
• Unterstützung und Hilfestellungen für weniger erfahrene Admins

Gerade das Thema Updates sorgte für viele interessante Gespräche. Friendica läuft auf sehr unterschiedlichen Systemen und Hardware-Konfigurationen — da ist ein großes Update nicht immer ganz einfach.

Dabei entstand die Idee, beim Friendica-Plausch von @feb einen zusätzlichen Erfahrungsaustausch zu machen. Dort könnten erfahrene Admins berichten:

• wie sie das Update durchgeführt haben
• ob alles reibungslos funktioniert hat
• welche Schwierigkeiten es gab
• und welche Lösungen gefunden wurden

Denn eines sollte klar sein:
Niemand sollte mit solchen Herausforderungen allein gelassen werden.

Außerdem hat @oldkid sein CAPTCHA-Addon vorgestellt — ebenfalls ein spannendes und wichtiges Thema. Gemeinsam mit den Entwicklern wurde direkt darüber gesprochen, ob solche Funktionen zukünftig vielleicht fest in Friendica integriert werden könnten.

Und genau das ist das Schöne an Friendica:
Jeder kann sich einbringen, Ideen entwickeln, eigene kleine Addons schreiben und diese der Community zur Verfügung stellen. 😊

Es war insgesamt ein wirklich schöner Abend mit viel Austausch, Offenheit und gegenseitiger Unterstützung. Ein extra Dankeschön geht an die anwesenden Entwickler @heluecht und @art4 .

Und das Beste:
Nach der Veranstaltung ist vor der Veranstaltung. 😄

Der nächste Friendica-Admin-Treff findet im Juni statt.

Da diesmal an einem Montag deutlich mehr Teilnehmer dabei waren, stellt sich nun die Frage:

Sollten wir die Treffen vielleicht generell montags stattfinden lassen?

Was meint ihr dazu?

@christin @fluffy @creativecommons OF course, #FediSuite is quite overkill the way LibreOffice Writer would be overkill to edit Markdown.

That being said I too want to see #Canimus succeed as another Client/Tool, because the #Fediverse *THRIVES* on it's vibrant ecosystem and open #API|s that allow everyone to build for and around it.

- This alone is what makes it "superior" to centralized, corporate antisocial media sites, because developers don't need to beg & pray for "API Keys" on Fedi…

And sometimes, small and nifty tools are better for that job.

- Whereas FediSuite is propably the #1 tool I'd point #SocialMediaManagers at when they want to get into the #Fediverse because it's basically a better #TweetDeck (aka. #Mastodon "ADVANCED" UI) / #HootSuite alternative…

Applauding @admin for taking a strong, well-argued stand on this.

Screenshot of a Mastodon server's server rules: Don’t police others’ use of CWs, alt text, or tags Whilst we have some guidelines around when to use CWs, alt text, and tags, we only have one rule about them: Use CWs for adult or NSFW content. You can politely ask other people to use specific CWs, alt text, or tags that you prefer, as long as you don’t state your preferences as absolute rules or requirements. This is especially important when marginalised people speak about their experiences of marginalisation. For example, if you are not BIPOC, don’t tell BIPOC to hide their experiences of racism behind CWs.

Guten Morgen - Tässle Kaffee ☕️?

Möchte mich heute von Herzen bei Euch allen hier auf #Mastodon bedanken! 🙏

In den langen Jahren auf algorithmischen Konzernmedien wie Facebook (bis 2019), Meta und X (danach ebenfalls raus) hatte ich „gelernt“, dass auf jede Erwähnung meiner deutsch-türkischen & christlich-islamischen Familie Hass & Hetze folgten.

Zehra & ich waren uns zwar einig, dass wir uns nicht einschüchtern lassen. Doch schön war das nicht, nach selbstverständlicher Akzeptanz von Vielfalt fühlte es sich nicht an.

Am Sonntag hatte ich es mal hier gewagt, über Familienglück & Glauben zu posten. Ich gebe zu, dass ich mit digitaler Gewalt, Beschimpfungen, Hohn rechnete.

Doch bis heute - kein Hate. Einfach Mit-Freude, Dialog, gegenseitiger Respekt.

Wow. Ich hatte fast vergessen, dass so etwas auch in unserer Zeit noch möglich ist.

Das #Fediverse ist nicht nur freundlicher, dialogischer. Für jene von uns, die die algorithmischen Konzernmedien verließen, kann es sogar heilend sein… 🙏🌈🤔🥰

Zehra & ich ließen unsere Kinder in je gemeinsamen Feiern christlich & muslimisch segnen, zwangen ihnen aber keine Religionszugehörigkeit auf.

Heute nahm auch das dritte Kind die evangelische Taufe freiwillig an & geht seinen Weg mit Gott in Rabbi Jehoschua / Jesus.

Auch ich ließ mich erst als Erwachsener taufen. Und so groß meine Zuneigung zur Vielfalt der Kirchen ⛪️ ist, so wählte ich doch bewusst 1 evang. Landeskirche, in der Frauen und Männer in allen Ämtern gleichgestellt sind. Ich glaube fest, dass Gott in die Herzen aller schaut & niemanden diskriminiert.

Entsprechend betrüben mich auch Dualisten, die „das Abendland“ durch Hass & Hetze gegen jüdische, muslimische, anders- oder nichtreligiöse Menschen „verteidigen“ wollen.

Es sind Glaube, Liebe, Hoffnung, diese drei - doch die Liebe ist die Größte unter ihnen.

Meine Erfahrung: Wenn Du wirklich glauben & hoffen willst ✝️, dann hasse nicht - dann liebe. 🫶🏻

I'm curious just how far it would be possible to go, in terms of functionality, if one were to make a Fediverse server and a web frontend to go with it, where said frontend is written entirely in HTML and CSS and nothing else.  Would it even function, enough?  I feel like if so then that simply has to be more secure than anything involving JS (or whatever else like that, but that I know of offhand, JS)… right?

I know blind people that willingly don't describe their images on Facebook.

I know blind people, actually, the majority of blind people, that *love* cloud based LLMs and can't stand any critique of the shitty people behind the tool, let alone the companies.

I know blind people that want TTS narrating audiobooks and audio description for everyone instead of humans.

I know blind people that sincerely believe audiobooks should *never* be used in an educational setting because Braille is better so audiobooks should *never* be used in an educational setting.

I know blind people that argue against having audio description and against accessibility because we should be fully independent.

Sighted people must understand that in the blind community especially, there's a *LOT* of blind people and even otherwise disabled people that *hate* all this “PC nonsense” PC is political correctness, but they're arguing against their own interests.

It happens in my own gay community too so instead of listening to blind people that hate other blind people, why not listen to a collective of blind people/other disabled people working to better local or digital environments.

I honestly didn't like the Against Access article when it came out, and I certainly don't like this quote being used to argue *against* access/accessibility instead of participating in an ongoing conversation about an optional filter.

Disagree with the filter all you want but *don't use another disabled person's shortsightedness to take away my access.* https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/29496#issuecomment-4429977820 #Accessibility #AltText #A11y #Disability #Blind #Mastodon #Fediverse

Wenn du deinen Account ernsthaft pflegen willst, brauchst du Regelmäßigkeit. Aber Regelmäßigkeit heißt nicht, dass du jeden Abend pünktlich am Rechner sitzen und ein Foto hochladen musst. Mit dem Scheduling von FediSuite setzt du dich einmal hin, schreibst zehn Beiträge für die Woche und planst sie minutengenau in deiner Zeitzone. Im Hintergrund laufen Worker, die deine Posts pünktlich rausschicken, auch wenn deine Instanz mal überlastet ist oder ein Rate-Limit zickt.

Like on resources. I can run this on a potato if I want and it would still run great (I'm not, but I could*.)

• Backups are easy. Tar up the directory. Done.
• Migrations are easy. Install nginx, build snac, untag backup. Done.
• Quirky web interface. It takes a little to get used to it, but it is very functional and it's got character. I thought I would use Phanpy with it more, but I'm not. I enjoy the snac web interface.
• Works (mostly) with Mastodon clients.
• No crazy caching of photos, avatars and other media. This is a really big deal because my disk usage is so much lower than when I ran Mastodon.
• No database. NO DATABASE. So good.
• Fast. snac is really fast doing everything. It's nice.
• @grunfink@comam.es is awesome. Friendly and responsive.

We have received a Copyright claim from Amazon for our @peertube instance videos.trom.tf/ . Hetzner, the hosting company where we have the dedicated server at, gave us 24h to resolve it.

The problem?

The video in question, a documentary about "aliens", a garbage piece of content, was NOT hosted on our instance, of course. But since Peertube is federated the idiots sent the claim to our hosting company. Even if UNDER the video you can see that video is "Posted By:" and the instance and username. It takes a few seconds to see where the video is hosted.

But who cares...maybe Amazon has "AI Agents" employed and they simply find a video of theirs on a URL and see the IP of that URL and submit a Copyright claim to the hosting where that domain is registered?!

Bunch of idiots.

But it is very concerning the fact that they can do these and we, the ones who hosts (and for free for that matter), need to quickly "fix" these things even if the claim has nothing to do with our server.

We eventually had to block that URL, thanks Peertube for allowing that, else these idiots cannot understand that it was not us who were hosting that video.

@LittleRedhead Hi @CBfotos. Welcome to the #Fediverse!

Happy Mother's Day, Fediverse!

Back during Covid lockdown, I answered a Craigslist ad for a 9-month-old Chiweenie. I've been Jaxon's mummy ever since. Attached is the first photo I took of Jaxon, the day he arrived, and a photo I took today. Same bed; very different dog.

So today's 3 Good Things centers on being a dogmom to a dog with special emotional and psychological needs.

🐕 I am never alone. Like I literally can't even pee by myself, lol 😂 and when I use the bathroom, suddenly he *also* must "go", so I never have to worry about not getting enough sun, because Jaxon will sniff every square inch of the backyard until he finds that one that's the perfect spot to drop his little bomb.

🐕 I am never afraid of being caught at home alone, because Jaxon would gladly gut any strangers like a fish. This is kind of a big deal because I wanted a dog for protection at home. On the other paw, Jaxon has been formally uninvited to the big family Christmas.

🐕 I never have to worry about having cold feet at night. Jaxon sleeps on the bed and puts off so much body heat that winter is never an issue. But don't get me started about summer!

A brown, shorthair Chiweenie puppy, weighing only 9 pounds at the time, lays on my unmade bed, with one front paw kicked out in front of him. His puppy collar is made of blue denim. One ear lays flat against his head, and the other is halfway cocked outward. This was a hard moment to capture, because he was a VERY BUSY little man for the first 5 years. Now at 6-years-old, he has finally slowed down enough to regularly ask for snuggles. He's at his happy best on a bed, which is why there are so many photos of him there.

Alt...

Another photo of Jaxon laying on my bed, exposing his soft white underside for a belly scratch. One ear is almost laying flat. One ear is cocked out for maximum reception. He now weighs about 16 pounds, and is almost, but not quite, normal. Most of the time.

• Only notify the banned person about their ban if they previously posted in the community they were banned from. This stops abusive mods from using bans as a form of harassment.
• Modlog: Reason for the action is only shown from trusted instances, so abusive mods won’t have an audience. Admins can still see the reason though. Which instances are trusted is set in the admin UI.
• Instance silencing similar to Mastodon. A silenced instance is not defederated from but their posts do not show in the Popular or All feeds and their communities are not shown in Starter packs aka Topics. Their communities can still be found in the communities list and joined in the normal way. Once joined, posts in there show up in the subscribed feed as usual.
• Per-user number of posts per page. Previously this was an admin setting but now individuals can override this to be a lesser number if they wish.
• Spinning “loading” animations on slow forms.

This here is the sort of colored person loser #whitesupremacy loves to flaunt around as an example to emulate 🤮

Wie können Fediverse und Eurosky voneinander profitieren und offene Netze stärken? - Der Plattform-Gipfel

#Fediverse #Eurosky

Und jetzt mal ein Downer, damit's nicht zu schön wird:

Das #Fediverse ist quasi auch eine Künstler:innen-Kolonie. Ein Ort der Schönheit… und der fehlenden Relevanz.

Ehrlich gesagt: weil sich hier viele nicht trauen, selbst Politik zu machen. Ich habe knapp 5200 Follower:innen.

Eine Bundesdelegiertenkonferenz (BDK) hat ~800-900 Delegierte. D.h. ein 12tel von Euch = #Fediverse/FLOSS-affine Mehrheit auf einer BDK.

Just saying.

Frage mich, ob der Marktanteil der Fediverse-Dienste höher wäre, wenn man statt von #Fediverse von #Föderation sprechen würde.

Good Morning #fediverse #tzag
