gnusocial.net, un servidor #GNUSocial dels més veterans del fedivers, tanca el proper 31 de desembre.
Una feina excel·lent dels seus administradors durant tots aquests anys que mereixen tot el reconeixement. Gràcies! 👏

Me on this day 13 years ago:Note to self: find the time to compare #elgg, #friendika, #gnusocial and #diaspora.web.archive.org/web/20120324231257/http://identi.ca/tag/elgg

( identi.ca/notice/78531519 but that's a broken link now -- somewhere on identi.ca this post still lives, if you can figure out the URL )

@devil I think if #gnuSocial is presenting people's fediverse activity to the web in ways that allows it to be indexed by major search engines like Google and without honouring the privacy settings those fediverse users have specified, in a way no other fediverse instances seem to be doing, that's something that could use being addressed.

Anyone know why this is showing up as a top google search result for my #fediverse handle when my profile is set not to be shown in search engines? Does #gnuSocial just ignore that?

I've written a bit of an extensive guide on navigating ActivityPub and its many apps, and instances, along with some initial questions new users might have, and links to mobile apps.

@stgiga@blahaj.zone Even #Mastodon is not the original #Fedi software. That title belongs to an extinct software that’s even older than #GNUSocial & #Hubzilla (which both are older than Mastodon). For more details on Fedi history, check this timeline compiled by @youronlyone@c.im/@youronlyone@catodon.social who corrected some of my own misconceptions & wrong thoughts about Fedi stuff.

If you haven't heard, sadly, #ChirpSocial, one of the popular #ActivityPub “groups” platform, is shutting down “probably” on February 29th.

In an email they sent to admins, the owner and developer can no longer support https://chirp.social financially as they failed to find a new job after they were laid off by #Google last year.

So, if you have a Chirp.Social groups, either move to #Guppe (https://a.gup.pe) (as suggested by Chirp.Social), or if I may, to #FediaIO (https://fedia.io), an #Mbin [flagship] instance.

This reminds us the importance of having a built-in groups feature, and one where the groups feature actually federates.

Back in 2008, when the #Fediverse was born, we did have a built-in federated groups in #Laconica / #StatusNet (today known as #GNUsocial). We used bang (!) instead of at (@). A built-in groups feature is more stable as established instances can host them.

Today, we have #Friendica and #Hubzilla (as well as #Streams-based instances) to fill in that, as groups is a built-in feature in those software products. It's just a matter of finding an instance that's open to hosting groups for any topic for the ActivityPub protocol.

That said, any Friendica, Hubzilla, Streams-based instances you suggest for groups?

Just read an amazing in depth article on @lain on @wedistribute about her development of #Pleroma
