Why is Mastodon struggling to survive? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 weeks ago

How is mastodon healthier? Please provide examples. Healthier for whom? As there’s an extensive list of people harmed that absolutely do not find mastodon “healthy” let alone “healthier” particularly Black and Brown folks. Bluesky defaults to the same way feeds are presented as Mastodon does, so your statement is false

Mastodon 4.3 released in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 0 points 3 weeks ago

That’s actually a misconception. This blogpost touches on that https://privacy.thenexus.today/black-twitter-quoting-and-white-toxicity-on-mastodon/ This discusses studies https://absolutelymaybe.plos.org/2023/01/12/quote-tweeting-over-30-studies-dispel-some-myths/?ref=privacy.thenexus.today Also, the Fediverse largely has already have this feature on other platforms and there’s been no mention of toxicity levels increasing. In fact Mastodon has a feature that is actually a known tool for toxicity and harassment which is the PM (Private Mention) feature. I’ve yet to see people call for it to be removed but that’s mostly due to only Black and Brown folks complaining about how they’re harassed via PMs. Others typically dismiss their claims.

Lemmy total number of users last month (very close to 1.5 M users) in c/[email protected]

The statement about comment history is inconsiderate. People absolutely care about their content. I don’t have to know nor care for their reasons why but it is important to users.

ActivityPods 2.0 is out! in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 weeks ago

Correct. You have access controls to your POD thus the data within it. As long as there’s an app built for a platform compatible with the protocols ActivityPods is compatible with, which are currently ActivityPub and Solid protocols it will work. It’s not just microblogging and not only compatible with Mastodon. So you can host your POD which would be best or even use a provider which you still have access controls. It’s like renting a locker or storage pod

ActivityPods 2.0 is out! in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

All it would require is someone making an app on top of it the same way the devs built Mastopod. They built it on top of SemApps which makes it relatively easy to built apps on top of ActivityPods

ActivityPods 2.0 is out! in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

That’s not true it’s compatible with anything running ActivityPub. It currently has build a Mastodon client as a demo that’s why right now you can use it with Mastodon. They built Mastopod in a week. Part of the pitch it showing devs how relatively simple it is to build apps on top of it. So if someone builds a Pixelfed, Lemmy etc app then you absolutely can use it

Beyond technical features: why we need to talk about the values of the Fediverse (part 1) in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 month ago

It’s because of how people people on mastodon freak out over privacy and consent. That’s why he wrote that article as the expectations and views of a large number of users are fundamentally against what actually happens

It’s not just for mastodon users, that’s selling it short

What made everyone move to Bluesky or Threads instead of Mastodon? in c/[email protected]

Do you always make up bullshit without confirming if you’re right or wrong?

What made everyone move to Bluesky or Threads instead of Mastodon? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago

It’s multiple factors but boils down to them being easier for non-techie people to access. It’s also a culture issue. Bluesky culture is more like Mastodon than not but it is more diverse and shifts younger. Lots of gatekeepers and harassers ruined it for would be mastodon users particularly Black and Brown folk that were harassed out of the space. One of the biggest minority ran instances was shut down due to overwhelming harassment. People also don’t want to be preached to nor want to be told how to use their own damn social account and be told they’re using it wrong. Most people legit just wanted Twitter without Musk.

This is weird on multiple levels, Bluesky code is Open Source, it’s federated and no one gives a damn about it being a PBC. It’s mostly about culture why people have gone to Bluesky and Threads

Reddit mirrors (lemmy.ml)

I know it’s not popular and I’m typically against it but I was listening to a podcast and it made me think there are absolutely important communities that shouldn’t be on a centralised platform like Reddit. The contents of them are so important that it should be on the Open Social Web. I’m wondering if there is someone or a community that mirrors subreddits as I would love for the contents of these communities to be preserved. Such as Preservation

Legal Liabilities (lemmy.ml)

If you are an admin and or instance operator are you protecting yourself legally? A great deal of people have simply spun up instances and treat them like Discord servers and subreddits, but Discord and Reddit are the ones that assume legal liability. Here are some good reads to assist by lawyers and experts that are on the fedi

Hey guys, with all of your help I would like to get a running list of apps for Fediverse platforms. In such a short time we’ve had so many apps develop and they’ve provided some incredible experiences. For those that have been on Fedi for some time, newer and those that will come, these client apps will play major roles in our experience. Please help me and join me in listing apps. Thanks in advance.

Any alternatives for Artifact users? Ideally, Fediverse integrated (lemmy.ml)

submitted 9 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

0 comments fedilink

For those that were #Artifact users I will share some alternatives in the meantime. This app is not prime time ready just yet but has HUGE potential. You can simply log in with your Mastodon account. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/nuggets-news-conversation/id6462796101

There’s also the feeds & Fediverse app: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/newsbite/id1478566472

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/perplexity-ask-anything/id1668000334 This is mostly for search but they’ve added a news like feature.

If you guys have any other suggestions please share

Fediverse sustainability (lemmy.ml)

submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

28 comments fedilink

I prefer good faith discussions please. I love the Fediverse and love what it can be long term. The problem is that parts of the culture want nothing to do with financial aspect. Many are opposed to ads, memberships, sponsorships etc The “small instances” response does nothing to positively contribute to the conversation. There are already massive instances and not everyone wants to self host. People are concerned with larger companies coming to the Fedi but these beliefs will drive everyday users to those instances. People don’t like feeling disposable and when you hamstring admins who then ultimately shut down their instances that’s exactly how people end up feeling. There has to be an ethical way of going about this. So many people were too hard just to be told “too bad” “small instances” I don’t want to end up with a Fediverse ran by corporations because they can provide stability.
