Wenn ihr in Berlin seid: kommt da gerne mal rum, mein Vortrag wird hoffentlich unterhaltsam. Und provokant. Aber auch konstruktiv! Also das Übliche. #fediverse #Fediday @digiges https://chaos.social/@digiges/115292634610884739

I'm sad to see IFTAS Connect shutting down. #IFTAS offered a community platform for server admins and moderators, committed to keeping the #fediverse safe.

Thanks everyone at @iftas for your hard work. 🫶

Loops already has powerful data controls, allowing you to export and even set data retention limits!

Full account migration between Loops servers is coming later this year ✨

While others build walled gardens, we're preparing to tear down walls.

As TikTok creates separate US and global apps, we're putting the finishing touches on ActivityPub integration in Loops.

Soon you'll share your loops across the entire fediverse - no borders, no corporate silos.

The future is federated. 🌐

https://joinloops.org

#Loops #Fediverse #ActivityPub

I've been doing this for 7+ years now and https://pixelfed.org, https://pubkit.net, https://fediverse.info, https://fedidb.com, https://joinloops.org, https://respectfulplatforms.org and https://socialweb.network are proof that one can manage more than one thing at a time.

Now it's our time to shine ✨

#fediverse #peopleNotPlatforms

Building personalized feeds for ActivityPub is hard.

Small Loops instances don't have enough signals to power recommendations effectively.

That's why I'm developing @activityrank to store cross-instance engagement patterns and serve video recommendations via open APIs.

Think BlueSky's PDS but for algorithmic discovery.

Open source, of course.

You can use our ActivityRank service or run your own ✨

Loops v1.0.0-alpha.2 is now available 🥳

https://github.com/joinloops/loops-server/releases/tag/v1.0.0-alpha.2

#loops #loopsDev #tikTok #fediverse

Revolutionary idea: What if social media platforms actually let you control your data?

@loops does, with full data exports, retention controls & opt-in analytics.

The future of social is open-source ❤️

(and federated 🚀)

Announcing Gaza Verified

https://gaza-verified.org

I’ve been having video conversations over Signal with people from Gaza who have Mastodon accounts on the fediverse in an effort to vouch for their authenticity.

This week, I whipped up a site to formalise this and to enable them to add a verified link to their Mastodon bios. Hopefully this will cut down on the amount of time they need to spend proving that their accounts genuinely belong to a person suffering through genocide and famine in Gaza and help them with their fundraisers.

The first four accounts belong to:

• @Aseelsehwel
• @NouranKhaledGh
• @joynewacc
• @mohshbair

If you want to get on the site, please contact me. See the guide for more information: https://gaza-verified.org/guide

Please share and donate to their fundraisers if you can.

Thank you!

💕

Fortunately, @voron 's site on snac themes still has this screenshot, which I'm happy to share.

This response from the author of snac motivated me to continue, study, and appreciate this fantastic software for the Fediverse.
Snac is an example of true internet democracy: it runs everywhere and allows anyone to have their own autonomous, personal space in the Fediverse.

"Don't despair or quit", says an author who cares. And the Fediverse cares about them.

For today's #ThankYouTuesday, I want to thank grunfink - @grunfink - for the excellent work they do, quietly and with passion. I suggest that if you think snac is a good idea and you have the means, you offer them at least a coffee.

A screenshot of a social media thread. The first post is by "Stefano BSD Cafe" and describes a problem where threads hang when boosting, liking, and posting messages in a short amount of time. The reply is from "The Real Grunfink", who says they have a vague idea of the issue and will push a fix soon.

Someone casually dropped a URL for a place where some wonderful shell based goodies are discussed

I went to the URL and I got a few beautiful fantastic and sexy programs purely for *sh

So whether you like csh ksh zsh tksh fish sh or any shell which I may or may not have heard of, these programs will run in them

httping horst

These two are making my day

Check their man pages on the internet.

httping looks gorgeous with the -K switch

I will update this toot with an output of the commands. I shall make the screen caps on my Linux machine

horst outputs sensitive data on the first page so I chose another innocent output

The image shows a terminal window displaying network performance metrics and HTTP request details. The top section of the window contains a table with columns labeled "latest," "min," "avg," "max," "sd," "mc-a," "cur," "cafe," and "RemAD." The table includes data such as "resolve," "connect," "ssl," "send," "headers," "close," and "ok" with numerical values. The "HTTP rc" column shows "200 OK," and the "SSL fp" is "n/a." The "graph" section displays a histogram with orange bars, indicating data distribution, and a green bar at the bottom. The "Server" field shows "Apache/2.4.63 (Unix)," and the "Last Modified" date is "Thu, 04 Aug 2025 15:18:21 GMT." The "Content-Type" is "text/html; charset=UTF-8." The bottom section lists timestamps, IP addresses, and response times for HTTP requests, all marked as "200 OK." The terminal also includes a message "ctrl + c to stop" and a timestamp "Mon Aug 25 03:18:23 GMT 2025." Provided by @altbot, generated privately and locally using Ovis2-8B 🌱 Energy used: 0.946 Wh

The image shows a computer screen displaying a spectrum analyzer software interface. The main part of the screen features a graphical representation of signal strength, with vertical bars indicating the intensity of signals across different channels. The left side of the screen shows a vertical scale labeled "dBm" ranging from -30 to -90, and a horizontal scale labeled "CHA" from 01 to 40, with some channels highlighted in green, indicating active signals. The background of the screen displays a sunset over a body of water, adding a serene visual element to the technical interface. At the bottom of the screen, there are several buttons and text fields, including "Quit," "Pause," "Reset," "Hist," "ESSID," "Stats," "Spec," "Filt," "Chan," "2 Nodes," and a timestamp "horst00:01:17:57." In the top right corner, there is a smaller window with additional data, labeled "Lin-SDY-RAI-TRANSMITTER," showing numerical values. The overall layout is typical of software used for network analysis or monitoring, with a focus on spectrum analysis.

My friends, I'm so excited and happy to introduce a new project: the illumos Cafe!

The positive and constructive spirit of the BSD Cafe, created and maintained by all the friends who participated from day one in building a strong and friendly community, deserves to spread to other operating systems. Because there are other OSes that deserve attention, certainly more than they're getting right now.

Operating systems based on illumos (like SmartOS, OmniOS, Tribblix, OpenIndiana, etc.) are mature, stable, secure, and perfectly usable for a wide range of tasks. ZFS is native, zones are an excellent method for containerization, and bhyve and kvm coexist beautifully - and so much more, too much to list in a single post.

So from today, the illumos Cafe will stand alongside the BSD Cafe in creating a positive, respectful, and growth-oriented (but also relaxing!) environment, starting right here in the Fediverse with a Mastodon instance and a snac one.

I've written an introductory article about the project, including some technical details. I invite everyone interested to read it: https://it-notes.dragas.net/2025/08/18/introducing-the-illumos-cafe/

Choose your table, take a seat and enjoy your time at the illumos Cafe!
