                    Now that I've dug my hands deep into the Mastodon core, it looks like it's definitely possible to get the original home instance counts for federated posts, not just your own server's local tally.

                    For boosts and favourites, recent versions of Mastodon already fetch the origin's reported totals when retrieving a post and store them as "untrusted counts" (untrusted because the remote server self-reports them). So a remote post carries the home server's actual numbers.

                    Replies are trickier, as they only federate to subscribed servers, so the local count tends to lag. However, you can fetch the full reply tree from the origin on demand.

                    I'm basing our algorithmic home feed exactly on that: boosts and favourites from the origin counts, and comments from a backfilled reply tree.

                                                                          Summary:

                                                                          The crafted file contains malformed MPEG-2 TS structures, including broken PMT descriptors and invalid PID metadata. While MP4Box processes the file with `-info`, the filter core performs PID instance cleanup. During this cleanup path, a PID instance is freed and later accessed again by `gf_filter_pid_inst_swap_delete_task()`.

                                                                          CWE:

                                                                              Processing a crafted media file with MP4Box `-info` can trigger a NULL pointer dereference in `gf_filter_in_parent_chain()`, causing a Denial of Service.

                                                                              Summary:
                                                                              The `gf_filter_in_parent_chain()` function in `filter_core/filter_pid.c` does not sufficiently validate a parent filter pointer before dereferencing it. When MP4Box processes a specially crafted media file with malformed MPEG-2 TS data and a corrupted PID/filter chain, the vulnerable path can attempt to read from address `0x000000000008` (`NULL + 8`).

                                                                              CWE:

Builds before the fix commit `b8d80b44718de10b101e1d7fc17c84d69feb092e` should be considered affected if they contain the vulnerable filter parent-chain validation path.

The local MITRE/BDU data also notes potential arbitrary code execution, although the available ASAN evidence shows a NULL pointer dereference crash.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        A bafflingly large amount of people genuinely only act on a gut feeling telling them that only commercial products with fancy marketing owned by a for-profit corporation can be trustworthy, 'official' and 'legal', for the lack of a better word.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        If something is a commercial offering by a competent-looking, rich family man in a suit, it's clearly an official, legal, trustworthy product. You can be proud of using such a fancy-looking service.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        When they see a community-run open-source project or a grassroots initiative, their first instinct is that it must be shady, illegal, complicated, broken or predatory in some way. It's probably some aftermarket grey area bootleg made by weird tech nerds, political groups with an ulterior motive, conspiracy theorists or some naive teenage hackers. They'd also be embarrassed for using it in front of their peers and neighbours; who uses some free back-alley software, are you poor or something?

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        The same people are the reason why Google is using the word 'sideloading', why scammers love wearing fancy suits, why people suddenly act childishly helpless in front of LibreOffice, or why DIY HRT is so demonised.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        They trust any kind of 'official approval' over their own senses. If someone does something that isn't 'approved', they're a bad person or clearly endangering themselves and others. No idea why exactly, but psh, it must be wrong somehow, or everyone would do it, right?

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        If people on the Fediverse understood that the whole "it's all so complicated and clunky" thing is just a thinly veiled excuse for a general disdain for non-commercial software, we could finally stop making all our software imitate their corporate equivalents in a futile attempt to appease people who never gave us a chance in the first place.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        You'll never convince them to treat it in good faith no matter how much effort or money you put into UX or 'ease of use'. All you're doing is making the software worse, e. g. through things like dot-social, verified accounts or begging brands, corporations and politicians to join and give your product some kind of 'official' validation.
