What's easier to read on blogs?

black on white or white on black?

#AskFedi #Blogs


Apparently editing a post on #Mastodon disconnects it from it's replies. Is this by accident (aka a bug) or by design (to make sure the replies always fit or something)? Asking @FediTips and everyone else

In my contacts on FB¹ there is now a serious move toward other platforms. The movement is akin to people leaving the birdsite when the apartheid oligarch bought it.

Unfortunately, many seem to opt for BlueSky. (I always recommend the #Fediverse, but something in the BS UI is perceived easier.)

I haven't paid attention to #BlueSky. It's apparently #opensource and can apparently be bridged over to here. But there is something in it that I don't trust. Or like, some red flags of possible enshitification and oligarch takeover sometimes down the line. But this is just me being suspicious.

Has anyone here anyone here actual info on it? Not planning to move there, but interested in what's up with it and would lile to know what the fedi thinks of it. Especially from a security and #democracy perspective.

I want to expand the contents of my feed with more LGBTQ+-diverse authors. Can anyone recommend some good blogs - not necessarily about queer topics, but from queer sources talking about life, their interests, whatever. Preferably with an available Atom/RSS feed 🙏

@alice, @luna , I feel like you'd have some good reqs :)

I follow mostly programming and retrocomputing blogs/feeds right now. But I'd like to support more queer voices, even if it's just by listening to what they have to say.

#askfedi #askmastodon #feed #blog #atom #rss


Wohoo, welcome to the #Fediverse, now get #KapitänPlatte to join as well 😉
Anyway, if You have questions about how all this works, just ask with the #AskFedi tag and/or follow @FediTips


Hi to those who use #GhostOrg for your website! Does anyone know of any themes that just make a bunch of #Fediverse (not just #Mastodon) social icons available for the menu, out of the box? #AskMastodon #AskFedi #Ghost


Ich würde schrecklich gerne unseren lokalen Fussballclub ins Fedi bringen. Habt ihr Beispiele für andere Clubs und Sportvereine, die hier aktiv sind, die ich als Beispiel hernehmen könnte?

#AskFedi I wish to improve the search results / discoverability of interesting content for my self-hosted #Pixelfed instance.

I set it up earlier this week via #YunoHost and I'm having issues finding content when I look up hashtags.

As a photographer, I wanted to actively look for photos tagged with camera brand names (Canon, Nikon, Fujifilm) but so far I'm finding very few results (see screenshot). I wonder if you have any recommendations as to how to tweak my settings? Thanks in advance! ✨

Does anyone have experience with switching calendars from @protonprivacy to @Tutanota? I'm wondering how easy it is to export/import. Thanks in advance! #AskFedi #AskMastodon #calendar

I kinda like the sound of Mastodon.nu is that any good?

#AskFedi #Mastodon


Is Tux.social any good? That seems like a smartly dressed, #Linux approving kind of instance.

#AskFedi #Mastodon


Anyone else use the to specific sound of the water from the tap to identify the temperature?

#AskFedi


Is there a good 'pick an instance - decision tree' image I could hand to a fediverse novice to get them over the initial hurdle of figuring out the first step of getting started on mastodon?

🇨🇵 Who do we know in the Fediverse based in or near #Paris #France and working on #OpenSource strategy, policy, etc.? Bonus points if a funder or if in government of some kind.

Does anybody know a tutorial for debugging a crash in your desktop environment on Linux? I am mostly interested as an exercise in actually using the “source” part of open source. Like I imagine it requires:
1) identifying the exact DE version being run
2) fetching the source of that DE version from somewhere and building it in debug configuration
3) running that DE with a debugger attached then triggering the crash

The DE aspect makes it weird, like I would have to run it in a VM maybe so the crash doesn’t take down whatever program I’m using to run the debugger too.

I have a literal bucket of USB cables, up to and including #USBC cables.

Does anyone in Australia need cables? I'll go you halves on postage at least. I would rather these go to someone who can use them rather than landfill.

Specify type you need in replies - people <=2 away from me in my networks will have priority.

#AskFedi

(Is there some kind of swap or trade hashtag I can use?)


People with personal websites and #blogs, especially using something like GitHub pages or Netlify + GitHub or similar systems:

how do you host your media?

Do you clutter your repository with it? Do you use a separate host? S3 buckets?

Boost for reach!

Ramy Awny Sultan is a self-taught electronics engineer from #Gaza. His brother was killed, and 7 months ago the IDF destroyed his home and workshop and he lost most evidence of his projects. He refuses to help Hamas and wants to escape Gaza. He is not asking for money, but is looking for assistance to flee, find a job, contact a foreign embassy, anything. Please let me know if you know of anything that can help him. :boosts_appreciated: 1/

Does anyone know what it means exactly that #DeutschlandTicket is no longer accepted in paper form?

Does e-paper count as paper?

Weiß jemand, was es eigentlich heißt, dass der #Deutschlandticket nicht mehr auf Papier gültig wird?

Can anyone tell me what this #IPTables entry related to #DNS is?

#Asus has "helpfully" added this to my parents' router.

Where do the members of East17 live nowadays?

And should their band name reflect their current postcodes? 🤔

Is masto.nu a good instance?

It looks like a good 'un.

#AskFedi


You know, if you leave one instance and migrate to another, can you go back and restart your closed account?

Or will it be dormant forever?

If one is to get into blogging these days and would like to use a blogging system with Fediverse/ActivityPub integration (including commenting via Mastodon account for example)…

Which one do people currently recommended to use?

I have found Plume, which looks nicest and has quite a few instances available. but is currently not developed very actively.

There is also WriteFreely, which is similar but lacks in public instances.

Maybe Lemmy?

Is octodon.social any good?

Looks like a good instance.

On an unrelated topic, where in the UK could I find fake, display sushi?

You know, like those wax ones or something?

I want some. Hopefully, convincing ones too.

Greetings and good evening! I need help down here in #Georgia. My #trans (adult) child is trying to change their name, and we aren't sure whether the #petition needs to be #notarized or not. The clerk won't answer any questions. The form itself doesn't appear to have space for a notary stamp. Can anyone with #legal knowledge or who has done a #NameChange here let us know? We really don't want to have to re-file after January 😬 thank you!! #askFedi #fediHelp #law #lawyer #question :boost_ok:


Serious question.

You have the internet.

Is there an outernet?

What if we make January the month where we all delete as many #corporate #apps as possible from our smartphones?

#FediSolidarityMonth or something.

Build a solidarity movement to encourage people to boycott corporate services.
