jrollans.com is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.
It would be pretty cool to have a fediverse version of ResearchGate. Someone should look into that. Someone with a lot more free time than me.

#Mastodon 4.6 is here! It's been a long time in the works, but it's finally ready. In this release, we're introducing Collections—a way to share curated collections of profiles to help old and new users discover more of the #Fediverse. We're also updating the look of profiles, alongside many quality of life and accessibility improvements. Read more here:
Hamza cut his finger on broken glass from a house, and we had to take him to the hospital where they stitched it. He now needs treatment. I haven't received any help for 10 days, and my husband is an amputee and can't work. Please, don't leave us alone… Help Hamza in any way you can. @Oftentimesjack @imp3tuz @neutrinoceros @Shibanarchiste

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.

Things to note as you explore today’s version 2 release:
- Be sure to update to 2.0 across ALL of your devices where you use the app (iPhone, iPad & Mac) so connectors stay in sync. Otherwise you’ll see errors when refreshing.
- Speaking of errors, Mastodon.social is having a moment today, throwing 503 errors when taking action like faving, boosting, replying & posting. Please be patient.
Hang in there & have fun!
Hamza suffered a deep cut to his finger from broken glass, and we had to go to the hospital where his finger was stitched. Now he needs treatment and follow-up care, which I am unable to afford I haven't received any donations in 10 days, and with my husband's leg amputated and he unable to work, the responsibility has become too much for us to bear

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🤷♀️

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.

Matt W [https://pronouns.cc/@mattwebbdev] » 🌐
@mattwebbdev@veganism.social
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.
If the Fediverse were a town, what role(s) would you play in that community?
I’d hope to work in a back room of the library organizing stuff and planning community events. 📚

Hey #Fediverse and #hnom , I'm new to #nhl hockey and I'm wondering if you lose two preseason games on the same night, you don't make it to the regular season, right??
Asking for #Leafs fans who have very low expectations for this year and it would save us a lot of pain.

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?

After my children grew up I was so very thankful the 6:30 a.m. pre-work ritual of dealing with irrational preschool or elementary school aged children, who were having a complete meltdown, while refusing to wear snowpants in -20 degree weather , was in the distant and forgetable past.
I was positive it was smooth sailing ahead
Adulting was in my future I was sure😊
Then I went on social media .....
