I'm thinking *a lot* about "Implicit Feudalism" these days - the idea that mods and admins (in the #Fediverse and elsewhere) are like feudal lords, wielding the only true power in online spaces - the power to silence other's voices.

That leaves regular users to be like serfs - bound to the land with no real power to make change besides 1) petitioning their lord, or 2) maybe leaving the lord's estate (if that's even possible).

#ScreenshotSunday! here are all the #iOS #Fediverse apps I have found to install and play with!

Well, this is happening. 😃

For the first time, littleFedi is going to meet the public.

Hello world!
We just shipped our first release, and opened the gates to our two instances, cookifed.net and cuisine.social !

https://cookifed.dev/blog/hello-world/

#cookifed #cuisine #fediverse

I've got to make a decision in my writing (microblogs, Mastodon, the fediverse).

Do I focus on posting only what I'm building and what others are building.

Or do I add in posts about the dangers of some things - namely AI, Tech/FOSS projects becoming co-opted, political pressures on various tech projects.

I want to focus on what I'm building and the problems and successes around that.

I don't want to focus on warnings or callouts anymore.
- I feel like others do a good enough job on it.
- My voice and perspective on those, while I stand by them, doesn't seem to prevent their occurrence or give or contribute to solutions to similar projects moving forward.
- I feel like those callouts and warnings add to an environment of rage bait and dopamine hits.
- I don't feel like I have a big enough picture or understanding to lend enough consideration to knock on effects and unintended consequences of discussing them.

For this microblog, I think I'm going to focus on the small areas that I'm building. Namely:
- Community Building
- Mutual Aid Projects and Initiatives around Food production and distribution
- Solarpunk Ethos, Art, Music, Aesthetics, and Initiatives
- Buddhism and Engaged Buddhism, including applying Buddhism to community and solarpunk initiatives

While I personally am mindful of generalized threats and trends, I don't think I can continue to spend effort and energy on calling them out.

I think we have enough of a solid information ecosystem here that I can leave that to others and focus my efforts on the above.

#solarPunk #buddhism #fediverse

This affects the Fediverse.

This affects the Internet.

This is the equivalent of the "rubber hose method" of decryption.

All technical solutions (read: all technology) is subject to politics. To political power. To political interactions.

You cannot rely on purely technical approaches. You have to have social approaches, too. Like. Actual policy and procedure geared around social and political group dynamics.

Like. How will we react when the US Govt requires that @jerry to shut off infosec.exchange servers.

Or how we'll react when a specific Mastodon server is declared part of a terrorist infrastructure. Will federating with it mean any other Mastodon server is now part of the officially designated terrorist network (what then of people that federate with a server that federates with a server that is classified as part of a terrorist network. And so on)

You cannot carry the conceit that tech alone or a purely technical approach will save you.

Backup activist, or data hoarder as people would call it now. Folders going back to 2005, 2 TB of them sitting in S3 Glacier Deep Archive for about $20 a year.

Getting anything back out of S3 costs $0.09 per GB. For 2 TB that is the price of a new hard drive, and I had made my peace with that.

Turns out AWS will hand the same bytes to CloudFront for free. And CloudFront has had a flat-rate plan since November 2025, $15 a month with 50 TB included. So the egress line item is now $15.

The restore itself still takes its time, about thirty hours for my 194 objects. Bulk tier, $5.12. Cyberduck cannot browse it, CloudFront has no listing, so a curl loop it was.

Full write-up, commands included

Отлично. База предпочтений готова: 2309 постов × 384 измерения.

Теперь начинается самое интересное — собственно рекомендация. Предлагаю сначала сделать офлайн-тест на уже известных данных, не трогая Mastodon:

• взять один лайк;
• найти среди остальных лайков наиболее похожие посты;
• вывести, что модель считает похожим;
• посмотреть глазами, насколько это вообще соответствует твоему вкусу.

Это важно сделать до подключения глобальной ленты: если семантическая модель понимает твои лайки плохо, сначала поправим методику.

Следующим шагом сделаем find_similar.py, который позволит указывать номер понравившегося поста и получать, например, 10 наиболее похожих лайков с процентом сходства.

Ну вот как всегда — «на самом интересном месте» 😢 Ну ниче, приду с работы — бум допиливать 😉

Всем доброе утро, на связи козленок, который вас считает 😆

hi devs, i am trying to develop a server for fediverse to use in my laravel blog (newly migrated to) but i am having issue testing and verifying it actually works in real life.
anyone know any tool to use to debug it easily? for now i only managed to run "activitypub-testing" but looking for other options ideally that do not imply running my own mastodon instance and checking its logs. #php #laravel #federation #programmer #fediverse #testing #developer

When _YOU_ look at _YOUR_ profile picture on the screen, it [FACES] (looks)...

EDIT: you guys are going to give me a stroke - if there is a face in your profile picture, is it facing right or left.. dont think too much about it. dont worry about the eyes. just generally... my profile picture looks to the right, for example. OK COOL

EDIT7: OK, how about this - where does the NOSE / BEAK / SNOUT / ? point to.

EDIT8: I wish I never made this poll.

EDIT9: If you have an ANIMATED avatar, then judge it on the 1st frame.

EDIT10: If there are both a MIRROR REFLECTION as well as a FACE, decide on the direction the FACE is facing, not the reflection.

EDIT11/12: By STRAIGHT AHEAD I mean looking DIRECTLY at you!

#introduction

Hello (again), after a brief posting hiatus and a search for somewhere to migrate to, I am back on Mastodon! I've been on the fediverse since 2023 but grew tired of the mastodon.social experience and felt like it was time to spread my wings.

A bit about me: I'm a 30-something fellow living in midwestern USA who works two jobs and takes care of two pets at home. I love #retrocomputing #retrogaming #writing #webdesign #electronicmusic #nature and many more things I can't think to list at the moment.

I manage a community for PC gaming on 4:3 displays that has gained a significant following in recent times, you can check us out on #neocities here: https://doesit4by3.neocities.org/

Sometimes when I have free time and feel motivated (lol) I will write a few thousand words on tech and tech-adjacent subjects. You can read my work here: https://read-only.net/

All other relevant things I've shared on the web can be found on various parts of my website: https://rootcompute.neocities.org/

Glad to have found somewhere to land on my feet and I hope I'll be able to call c.im home on the fediverse for many years to come!

#FAO has 12 social media icons on their pages and none is in the #Fediverse. They have, or someone has for them, an account here with no posts in it that I can see. I wrote to them to at least fill it with their content from Bluesky via rss, bot or bridgy (mind you, I'm not sure how these work) and put up a Masto icon , how hard can that be? If you're not doing anything atm, consider piling on. We'd maybe be their most appreciative audience, considering how captive those 12 sites are to private equity that actually hates the FAO and all it stands for.

Pixelix is now free!

After two and a half years of developing Pixelix and having it as a paid app, we've decided to switch things up and make Pixelix free for everyone.

We’re really excited to see where this takes Pixelix, and we’re incredibly grateful to everyone who has supported us so far.

I assumed that Fediverse could really be an open, progressive environment where to discuss ideas and grow up, with different points of view. But what I'm finding lately, is something different. Narration going from "pro AI / glasses" to "no AI / glasses" so if you don't maintain a position, you are just in favor of fascists or perverts.
The last one I had a discussion with, called me "a waste of time" because I made him realize that a sighted pervert can use his own eyes, without glasses, while I fasten my shoes strings, bent over. Instead of joining me, thinking of a proposal to satisfy blind people's needs while protecting privacy, no. The problem is me.

Same for github/codeberg stuff: do AI-built pull-requests ruin open source software? Yes.
Is AI-generated code dirty and unreliable? Yes.
Have hand made coders the right to prohibit automated code? Yes, of course.
But same coders, went on for years saying "I'm an independant coder, a small company, I have no resources to make it accessible to blind, if you need it, make it yourself".
Now, thanks to assisted coding, many of us blind are doing exactly this: trying to solve their gaps by having the bots fix the issue. Then, to help other users (and the coder himself), they place the fix in form of pull request, into the repository. And it's often refused.
But, would the original coder ever solve accessibility? No. I'm alone, it's a small company, you're the first blind user I hear, and similar bullshit.
What, the fuck, should, we, do?

From far-right, I know what to expect: they're racist, ableists, and all the worst. They don't hide it. But I couldn't definitely expect such behaviours from people caring for freedom, ethics, open technologies, etc. I'm fed up of being considered an object who can gladly be sacrificed for purity of something or someone.

#introduction time! My name is Matt, I'm new to veganism.social, but not new to the #Fediverse. I first joined in 2018 on a #mastodon instance that's probably gone by now. I've been leaving and coming back over the years due to health and life circumstances, but I've been consistently back on for a while.

Anyways, I'm an #opensource web developer (#php/#vue), #punk/#metal musician, #anarchist, #antifascist as hell, #feminist, #ally, and hater of #bigtech and what #ai is doing to our planet. Speaking of our planet, I am a #vegan for health and ethical reasons, but I am not going to be shitty towards people if they're not.

I'm in the process of building out my own little spot on the #indieweb/#smallweb so I can return to running my mouth on a blog.

If I followed you, it's probably because we have common interests, or I enjoy your brand of #shitposting. Or you've activated my inner-geek with #startrek and #videogames.

Anyways, thanks for reading all of this. I hope the attached picture of Marvin the Mushroom has brightened your feed in some way.

@LordCaramac @cmconseils haha true #fediverse moment here.

The only place on the internet where under a random post-modern architecture concept meme abstractly looking like the twin towers collapsing there are deep struggles to be found between anarchism and communism in posts longer than the average workday <3

🌟 Friendica Plausch am Samstag, 05.09.2026 🌟

Du nutzt Friendica schon eine Weile – oder bist gerade erst dabei, die vielen Möglichkeiten zu entdecken? Dann schau doch beim wöchentlichen Friendica Plausch vorbei! 😊

Jeden Samstag um 14 Uhr lädt @feb zu einer lockeren Online-Runde rund um Friendica ein.

💬 Was kann Friendica eigentlich alles?
🔎 Wo verstecken sich praktische Funktionen?
💡 Welche Tipps haben andere Nutzerinnen und Nutzer?
❓ Und wie funktioniert dieses oder jenes überhaupt?

Beim Friendica Plausch gibt es kein festes Programm und keine „dummen Fragen“. Es geht ums gemeinsame Entdecken, Ausprobieren, Fragenstellen und Erfahrungen austauschen.

Und wie es sich für einen echten Plausch gehört: Manchmal schweifen wir dabei auch ganz entspannt in völlig andere Themen ab. 😉 Genau das macht die Runde oft besonders unterhaltsam und abwechslungsreich.

Egal, ob du #neuhier bist, schon länger Friendica nutzt oder einfach neugierig bist – komm gern dazu. Gerade die unterschiedlichen Erfahrungen und Gespräche machen den Plausch spannend. 🌐✨

📅 Samstag, 05.09.2026
🕑 14:00 Uhr
💻 Online

Den Link zur Veranstaltung findet ihr im Kalendereintrag von Matthias.

Vielleicht entdeckt ihr dabei ja eine Friendica-Funktion, die ihr bisher noch gar nicht kanntet – oder landet am Ende bei einem Thema, mit dem vorher niemand gerechnet hat. 😄

Wir freuen uns auf euch! 😊

Okay, I'm going to ask. It's been a hell of a week and today has been especially difficult. I'm deeply unwell with disability and chronic illness and meds side effects and cannot cook anything currently. Would anyone be able to help me(disabled and under the poverty line trans guy) so I can get takeaway/things that are already cooked that just needs heating and actually eat today and this weekend? It would be greatly appreciated. My goal is $65 to cover a few nutritious meals for today and the weekend. Thank you♥️

#Fediverse

Hello #Fediverse! #Introduction.

I'm Chas, I'm 65, and I've been married to the love of my life for 45 years. We have four awesome fur babies and two great daughters. We're from the US, but we're joyful vagabonds, having spent 30 years abroad in the UK or South Korea. We'll spend our remaining years in the Philippines. We're both long-time English teachers, avid readers, and aspiring novelists.

When people ask how I am, I say good, thanks.

That answer costs nothing to give and nothing to hear, which is exactly why I keep giving it.

Most days it is not true. Most days there is a version of me running underneath that one, doing the actual work of getting through the day, and the version that answers the door is just the part I trust people with.

I do not know a better system yet. I am not sure good, thanks has an honest replacement that fits in a hallway conversation.

My first review by an editorial reviewer, and I was quite pleased. I might have liked a bit more emphasis on the immersive Appalachian culture of southern slang, smothered pork chops, and rural mountain life, but overall, I liked it.

I've opened up the first 20 slots for users on the ouo.sh #Mastodon instance.

Application only for now to make sure the server can scale well so expect a short wait for me to approve.

There's a #Matrix homeserver and webmail @ouo.sh available for the first users too. - Just ping me once your account is approved if you'd like either.

Still to come: #Minecraft server, and #Linux ISO mirror.
