Welcome!

Can you imagine, years ago how the internet was before? We know Facebook, Twitter, Tiktok, Youtube. We knew blogger, Tumblr, Skyrock... and long before, it was the forum era as phpBB..and mail-lists.

And now with ActivityPub, we are reshaping the web, and achieving much with lots of freedom. So thank you all, and welcome 🤟😁

Hey 👋,

I got frustrated with the friction for users from direct links to all the different instances they don't have accounts for and built https://lemsha.re/

It's inspired by matrix.to - but built for Lemmy content.

If a user clicks a lemsha.re link the user will be presented with two options:

  • visit the original link, or
  • view the same content - but on their preferred instance

Hope you find it useful.

I know, it has been a while :D. However, we are happy to release v1.8.1! > > Mainly a lot of bug fixes / improvements. Composer package dependency updates. Lot of documentation and language improvements (we also got Catalan now fully translated, thanks!). Feel free to upgrade to PHP v8.4 as well. > > A noticeable fronted difference to point out is that we now put thumbnails in a lightbox by default. Although this can be changed by the end-user at: ⚙ Settings -> Under "Threads" section -> "Thread thumbnails opens full screen" option. > > See full release notes: https://github.com/MbinOrg/mbin/releases/tag/v1.8.1

Although this is a talk an ATProto-related conference, this has direct applicability to Mastodon and Lemmy instances.

About 2 months ago, I set up a #Mobilizon server to give people a decentralized, ActivityPub connected, alternative to #FacebookEvents, https://my-group.events/

It really pleases me to see that people are discovering it and using it to manage events instead of using big-tech owned centralized corporate controlled solutions. We need to keep making these alternatives available to people.

Public events scheduled on my-group.events

By using the various fediverse software, you may have discovered an unique/cool feature. Or a nice UI.

Which one and why ? :)

Nutomic:

This is implemented in the main branch now. If you want to develop a plugin for Lemmy, have a look at the RFC and the examples. If you have questions about plugin development, feel free to post in the Matrix dev chat, !lemmy@lemmy.ml or open an issue.

https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/3562#issuecomment-2760779122

Examples in multiple languages: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-plugins#lemmy-plugins (only a few examples currently, more languages are possible including Python)

Anyone planning to start working on a plugin?

Repost of a previous thread on !ask@lemm.ee: https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/33116369?scrollToComments=true

Just came out of a discussion when someone was arguing that “if everyone here would pay $10-20 per year, the whole platform would be completely different”, but that seemed quite unrealistic to me.

What do you think?

Through their seven theses, Aymeric Mansoux and Roel Roscam Abbing scrutinize federated networks as one of the most significant recent developments in alternative network cultures. The authors discuss how, in what they call the ‘latest episode of the never-ending saga of net and computational culture’, the emergence of federated network initiatives is challenging the established working methodologies of FLOSS (Free/Libre and Open-Source Software).

This concerns critical questions on selective online presence, precarious communities, platform independent and co-developed platform infrastructures, and environmental sustainability. For Mansoux and Roscam Abbing, this opens up new ways to accomplish crucial links between independent media and the structures of owning, building, and maintaining networks.

[...]

The current popularity of the Fediverse can be seen to be driven by two parallel tendencies. First, an interest in engaging with specific technical choices and concerns about closed protocols and proprietary platforms. Second, a wider willingness to recover agency as users of social media infrastructures. More specifically, while corporate social media platforms have allowed many to publish content online, the biggest impact of Web 2.0 has been the apparent decoupling of matters of infrastructure from matters of social organization.

The mix of operating systems and social systems from which net culture first emerged, has been replaced by a system of limited user permissions and privileges. Those who engage with the Fediverse work to undo this decoupling. They want to contribute to network infrastructures that are more honest about their underlying ideologies. These infrastructures do not hide behind manipulative or delusional exploits of ideas like openness, universal access, or apolitical engineering.

Although today it is too early to tell whether or not the Fediverse will live up to the expectations of its inhabitants, and how it will impact FLOSS in the long run, it is already possible to map current transformations, as well as the challenges faced in this latest episode of the never-ending saga of net and computational culture. To do so, we present seven theses on the Fediverse and the becoming of FLOSS, in the hope of opening up discussions around some of their most pressing issues.

Hi and welcome !

I haven't finished sidebar links and we are just starting. Here is the ideas box ! I have some ideas for this community. And i would like to listen to your idea. :)

As you already know, there are already plenty "fediverse" communities. So let's try to create something else. It will be very hard but i would like to give a try.

It could be :

  • your user experience, how you arrived on the fediverse, what changed in your interraction.
  • some guide to help news users
  • Maybe some essay about moderation. What can we change. Maybe we could remove completly the voting system and imagine a new one based on tags ?
  • how can we setup a system where we can help each others between sysadmins, or funding.,.for example there is the french NGO Chatons. It's a collective of hoster.

If the text above inspire you, then join the mod team and lets explore and animate this community together. :)

So what do you want so see here ? 🤓
