   several #Fediverse platforms have had a "flagship" instance, has GNU Social (now or in the past) had one? !sns

     like mastodon.social, lemmy.ml, kbin.social, gleasonator.com Usually the largest and certainly supported by the developers of the project. !sns !gjp

     以前はloadverage.orgやgnusocial.se?などいくつかありました。今はサーバー数が少ないので、一般登録可能なgnusocial.netが最大になっています。将来的にはgnusocial.jpを代表サーバーにします。

     The first was Laconica which became Statusnet which became #Identica (2008).
     
     Later (2016), after the merger of Statusnet and GNU Social (after Identica forked to stop using OStatus and went for Pump.io as protocol), several instances became famous: Quitter.se (and derivates like Quitter.es, Quitter.no, Quitter.is), Loadaverage.org, Gnusocial.de, micro.fragdev.com.
     
     The main reason why Quitter.se in particular stood out in 2016 was that its admins and developers Hannes Mannerheim and @3mp0 created a UI resembling features of Twitter (which is why it was called Qvitter), with the goal to help Twitter users move to the Fediverse.
     
     Today, with ActivityPub the main protocol and Mastodon the main platform software in the fediverse, gnusocial is a niche project. Gnusocial.net seems to be the largest one.

     @simsa03 OK, but  it never had an instance that was maintained by the developers (not that the current developers of GNU Social actually maintain ANYTHING, which is why I agree with @Gnusocialjp that this instance will one day be the flagship instance). https://gnusocial.jp/url/26239 is still the flagship instance of lemmy and https://gnusocial.jp/url/1199585 of soapbox, even though neither is currently the largest of either community. (lemmy only recently lost that spot thanks to the #RedditMigration and the OG instance not being particularly welcoming of anyone outside their particular political persuasion).

     @simsa03 @gnusocialjp was this post supposed to have images attached to it? Both "classic gnusocialjp" and Qvitter show what appears to be a number of "empty images" (untitled attachment links going nowhere) but on Pleroma nothing shows at all.

     @simsa03 yeah, https://gnusocial.jp/url/1199661 still exists, though now it's a Friendica instance. I also recall not long ago reading through some Pleroma documentation that referenced @lain as @lain@quitter.se I missed #EternalSeptember and the original quitter as I had been absent from the 'verse for like 9 years after I thought https://gnusocial.jp/url/200195 had closed up shot. I was incredibly surprised to learn that not only does it still exist but the OG @evan is working on bringing it back by integrating ActivityPub. He had said sometime this summer, so I hope its soon ;-)

     I saw that and it's the first time I see such empty boxes on any instance. They seem to appear because I inserted links. With the exception oy youtube video, all links on gnusocial.jp seem to show empty boxes at first (which to me feels intended like some form of CW). When you change to the pleroma backend for gnusocial.fp, the content of the links is shown immediately.

     That would be interesting! Still have an account there. Checking in every several months or so.

     @simsa03 @gnu2 Qvitterのサイドメニューに書いているとおりです。Embedプラグインを無効にしているので、URLのOGP/oEmbedサムネイル画像が非表示になっているだけです。

     Hmm, I'm not sure I understand this correctly.
     
     Is it possible for you to enable the plugin? Or would you consider doing this?
     
     I ask because when I look to other gnusocial instances, I see that there thumbnails are enabled. They don't run the Qvitter interface though.
     
     And if you cannot enable the plugin in Qvitter, could you perhaps enable it in the classical interface?
     
     うーん、これを正しく理解できているかどうかわかりません。
     
     プラグインを有効にすることは可能でしょうか？ それとも、これを行うことを検討しますか?
     
     他の gnusocial インスタンスを見ると、サムネイルが有効になっていることがわかるので質問しました。 ただし、Qvitter インターフェイスは実行されません。
     
     また、Qvitter でプラグインを有効にできない場合は、従来のインターフェイスでプラグインを有効にできますか?

     @simsa03 oEmbedプラグインを有効にしたくありません。URLが登場するたびにサムネイル画像が自動生成されて、ストレージを消費するからです。
     URLのサムネイル画像はおまけです。必須ではありません。リソースを消費してまでする価値があると思いません。それよりも安いことのほうが今は重要です。
     Qvitterでサムネイル画像が表示されないのは別のバグも原因に絡んでいます。

     Thank you for the explanation. The storage- and cost factors are very good reasons. You are right: Thumbnails are a bonus, not a requirement. And should people want to have thumbnails in the previews, they can always choose the Pleroma frontend.
     
     ご説明ありがとうございます。 ストレージとコストの要因は十分な理由です。 おっしゃる通りです。サムネイルはおまけであり、必須ではありません。 また、プレビューにサムネイルを表示したい場合は、いつでも Pleroma フロントエンドを選択できます。
