I still can't for the life of me get #Friendica to tell me why it's throwing 500s all over the place. The post-upgrade tasks are all done and if I turn on display_errors anywhere, I get blank pages with 200s instead. I can't get anything to go to any of the logs, either. #PHP
Os que uso com frequência (tem outros que instalei só para testar):
Connectbot - Um cliente ssh para fazer manutenções rápidas em serviços em servidores remotos. Costumo atualizar muito o #Friendica por ele (é só rodar sudo git pull e a mágica acontece).
Notas do Nextcloud - A versão para #Android do editor de notas em texto puro, com suporte a markdown, que sincroniza as notas com todas as instalações do #Nextcloud (notebook, servidor e celular).
If you manage several Fediverse accounts, you're constantly juggling browser tabs, losing track of which input field belongs to which platform, and at some point you no longer know what you've already posted. #FediSuite brings everything together in one place.
Connect accounts from 19(+) #Fediverse platforms: #Mastodon, #Pixelfed, #Misskey, #Friendica, #PeerTube, #Loops, #Wordpress, #Vernissage and more. The app detects your instance type automatically, loads the correct character limit and media rules straight from your instance, and sets up the composer accordingly. No manual configuration needed.
The analytics go way beyond plain follower counts: daily engagement charts, follower growth, your best posting times as a heatmap, hashtag performance, and a tips engine that evaluates your actual data and gives you concrete suggestions based on your own numbers.
Schedule posts down to the minute in your own time zone. Background workers handle publishing reliably, with resume handling for rate limits and atomic delivery.
FediSuite is free and #OpenSource under the GPL-3.0. Anyone can host their own FediSuite #instance and get it added to the official list automatically.
If you find a bug, especially in the #SelfHosting setup, feel free to report it. The project is being actively developed, and real-world bug reports are among the most valuable contributions right now. The CONTRIBUTING.md explains how it works.
The project lives on donations. Donations guarantee and make it possible for FediSuite to keep going and keep being developed. To support FediSuite, click the yellow button on the website.
@Phantasm One that happened quite early on was Mastodon's hijack of the summary field for content warnings which wasn't used for that previously. And everyone on Mastodon believes that Eugen Rochko has invented this field from scratch as a CW field. It's deeply engrained into Mastodon's culture now. It got to the point at which non-Mastodon users use the summary field as such, and they're attacked by Mastodon users for allegedly misusing the CW field.
Worse yet: Friendica has had a much more elegant way of handling content warnings since its inception, about seven years before Mastodon introduced the CW field: Have them created by a keyword filter on the reader's side. The advantage is that you have your own individual CWs, and other users who don't need these specific CWs don't have them. All its descendants have inherited it. But if you add the appropriate keywords as hashtags, Mastodon users might scold and/or mute/block you for hashtag spam.
Even worse: Mastodon itself has introduced essentially the same functionality with version 4.0 in October, 2022, just shortly before Elon Musk took over Twitter. But this has never entered Mastodon's culture which is mostly built around Mastodon 3.x. Or maybe it's because filters are the one thing where Friendica and its family are much easier to handle than Mastodon. Or it's simply because Mastodon users were promised to be babied and pampered and coddled all over, so they don't want to take care of their own CWs.
Now their "hijacks" are more on the side of centralizing moderation and overall working on features that aim to reduce the social aspect of the network and increase witch hunting. Like the new "follow packs" or whatever they called them which will definitely never turn into "block packs" that will inevitably end up maintained by heavily opinionated people like on BlueSky. Mastodon already relies heavily on importing or subscribing to automatically generated filter lists. For some admins, the filter lists can't be too extensive. Of course, hardly any admins really curate these lists.
At least the times of absolutely monstrous lists consisting of multiple other monster lists compiled by overzealous snowflakes are over. There used to be a time where it took two or three server admins with lists of their own to have one server blocked on hundreds of servers.
Lemmy only recently figured out how to properly federate posts instead of just sending a post link along with a title to instances not running Lemmy. I guess the two Lemmy devs have finally understood that they can't develop Lemmy as its own enclosed network anymore, now that a lot of traffic on Lemmy comes from and goes to Mbin and PieFed. They've lost a lot of users to these two, and I guess they know they can't afford to lose the traffic from these users as well.
They still don't really care for compatibility with Mastodon, probably also because of how much Mastodon's culture clashes with Lemmy's. And Friendica and its family just happen to be sufficiently compatible by mere chance, I guess.
Coincidentally looking at Fedilist I can see that there are approximately 450 running Friendica instances, approx 100 Hubzilla instances, and apparently 2 Forte instances which doesn't seem right. Streams isn't on the list. That list is acquired by crawling through the various peers endpoints on Fedi servers. For Friendica and Hubzilla, I think it isn't too far off.
(streams) is intentionally kept away from stats sites. Also, its nodeinfo code was intentionally removed almost entirely. This was done to keep (streams) out of that rat race for server popularity and to make it uninteresting for commercial actors that might want to sell it as allegedly their own original creation. Then again, it isn't like (streams) has many servers, much less public servers with open registration. (I'm still waiting for another server to clone my two (streams) channels to.)
Forte has quite a bunch of private, single-user servers, but to my best knowledge, there's only one with open registrations. But while Forte does have nodeinfo implemented again, it's set up to not send any actual numbers. Besides, these tiny Forte servers are quite difficult to crawl, also due to Mastodon users' tendency to block everything that's too disturbingly far off Mastodon in behaviour.
I've shared mine as an image b/c tagging doesn't work the same way across platforms. Please use an image or put spaces in the account handles -otherwise your post could show up as a topic on a discussion board!
Anläßlich der morgen beginnenden #republica legen wir noch eine Schippe drauf in unserem Einsatz für #Mastodon und das #Fediverse 🌐. Gemeinsam mit #Wikimedia und den uns unterstützenden Organisationen* haben wir ein Tutorial erstellt. Es soll öffentlichen Einrichtungen dabei helfen, eigene Accounts oder Instanzen einzurichten und mitzumachen bei der Nutzung sozialer Medien, die dem #Gemeinwohl verpflichtet sind. 🌅
Bezieht die Broschüre digital von hier 👉 https://cloud.wechange.de/s/K46GejqGn48PSrf QRcode ⬇️ (zurzeit noch nicht barrierefrei, Aktualisierung folgt) oder besorgt sie Euch am Stand von Wikimedia auf der re:publica #rp26.
Ich probiere das gerade mal mit den Gruppen aus und habe auch selber mal eine erstellt (ob da andere teilnehmen wir man sehen 😁)
Jetzt habe ich als Umsteiger mal kleine Fragen, da der Weg ja ein anderer ist als bei der großen bösen Plattform. Hoffe, sie sind nicht zu peinlich. ;)
Verstehe ich das richtig, dass: - ich alles, wo ich !Beispielgruppe in den Beitrag schreibe, diese dort in die Gruppe geteilt werden? - wenn ich ausschließlich der Gruppe was mitteilen will, ich dieses unter Berechtigungen entsprechend anpassen muss (Begrenzt/Privat), und wenn ich das mache, muss ich dann !Beispielgruppe trotzdem in den Beitrag schreiben, damit der in der Gruppe angezeigt wird?
Ideally, #Fediverse platforms should be able to interoperate at a deeper level. I should be able to browse a #Lemmy#PeerTube or #PixelFed instance with my #Mastodon account, or vice versa.
My understanding is that (some of) the platforms ideated by Mike Macgirvin (#HubZilla and #streams in particular, not sure about #Friendica) have this kind of integration (as well as other nifty features such as nomadic identities). Can we expand support for this to all Fedi platforms, I wonder?
A parte de não achar mensagens ou receber notificações, estávamos tendo uns problemas assim com outros protocolos (como o Zot), mas não sei se é exatamente disso que você está falando. Quando começava a mencionar alguém, aparecia um menu de opções pra você selecionar a pessoa? Porque é assim que funciona aqui.
A timeline, na verdade é a "Conversa dos seus amigos" (que, na URL, é um "/network" depois do nome da sua instância). E lá só aparecem coisas que as pessoas que você acompanha postam ou interagem. Mas aí entra uma coisa legal na Friendica que são os Círculos (Circles). Quando você cadastra um contato novo, você pode adicioná-lo a um ou vários círculos (inclusive pode criá-los na hora de adicionar a pessoa). Dessa forma, você tem um filtro rápido quando quiser ver somente mensagens de contas específicas.
Em relação ao Threads, a culpa é da Meta e não da Friendica. 😀 Agora, há algum tempo eu fiz uns testes e a foto da pessoa aparecia. Será que mudaram alguma coisa do lado de lá?
Em resumo, a Friendica não é perfeita. Eu mesmo sinto falta de algumas coisas que tinha na Hubzilla e não tem aqui. Mas, como disse na outra mensagem, ela se adequa bem ao uso que eu faço, é fácil de instalar e de manter, então continuo por aqui. 🙂
Habe nach dem Friendicaupdate gestern mal wieder meine Instanzinterne Föderationsstatistiken angeschaut, die #Friendica standardmäßig so fein aufbereitet. Dabei fällt auf, dass inzwischen Mastodon keine soooo riesige Dominanz mehr hat, wie das früher der Fall war. Aber es gab noch mehr Überraschungen, die ich nicht alle verstehe:
Könnt Ihr mir sagen, was es mit diesem riesigen, hier im Tortendiagramm in Giftgrün dargestellten Anteil der "#Ghost" Server auf sich hat? Was ist Ghost im Fedikontext? Gab es bei mir auf der Instanz früher nicht in der Form.
PS.: Der hellblaue Teilring unten ist Mastodon, der dunkelblaue oben links ist Wordpress, dessen Aanteil hat sich auch signifikant erhöht hat, was ich gut finde, aber auch nachvollziehen kann; wohl dank der Arbeit von @pfefferle.
