My mother got this book.

Hello Fediverse admins/mods,

I need help to collate some Nicole data. I've noticed they're exclusively using outlook.com emails so far, and I want to make a big list of known emails to send to microsoft

Please DM me with any emails from disabled Nicole accounts

master-don? Am I saying it wrong?

Posted an update on the @pixelfed kickstarter... 50~ hours left

"Final Stretch - A massive thank you and an update on our progress so far"

@psychpsyo @dalias "Why do people hate being called nazi lovers but don't have a problem with nazis?"

@psychpsyo @dalias "leave their Nazi stuff at the door" lol... what's your address for your delivery of large clown shoes

10 instances... wonderful federation
9 instances... horrible centralisation

10,000 instances with 10,000 S3 buckets.. gods perfect federation
10,000 instances with 5,000 S3 Buckets... absolute evil

There are a cohort of fediverse fans that think any change to the fediverse that doesn't grow the number is evil...

Building some kind of shared services, multi-tenanted instances or any kind of de-duplication to lower the total cost of ownership or limiting wasted resources (power, storage, bandwidth, etc) will get you yelled at for "centralising the fediverse".

Touch Grass.

As a @mikrotik fan, and somebody who was planning to build their own storage solution soon... I guess this release solved that problem.... one please! (and $2K USD?!)

Also thanks for the #Pixelfed shoutout!

John Oliver's Last Week Tonight mentions #Mastodon and #PixelFed as alternatives that are "not as desperate to fall in line with trump".

As somebody who isn't a coder, I cannot thank @dansup enough for taking the time to listen and work with me on a "akismet for the fediverse" concept today.

I wrote a short pitch for "FediThreat: Federated Threat Intelligence Service - IP/Email/URL reputation service"

and Dan has completed a POC. This concept has been in my head for 7 years but I just didn't have the ability to code it.... So this is something I'm looking forward to maintaining once it's online operationally to try and help our mods from dealing with spam.....

My pitch documents are here:
https://github.com/pixelfed/FediThreat/issues/1
https://github.com/pixelfed/FediThreat/issues/2
https://github.com/pixelfed/FediThreat/issues/3

This isn't an original idea so I'd love feedback on any prior art or any written history around this concept...

@cwebber Are the slides for your talks public? :annoyingdog:

International April/May:

Home -> Phuket (Wedding) -> Tokyo (Holiday with Partner) -> LA (Friends) -> NY (GREATEST CITY IN THE WORLD BABY) -> Boston (Charity Fundraising at PAX East) -> Atlanta (Friends) -> Sydney (Friends) -> Home

@dansup @ansuz @jonny that feature is stupid, but they really should pick a random number lower than their actual number to not inflate it at best.

Nobody understands threat modals... this is what's called "security theatre"... doesn't fucking do anything but makes people feel like they're helping with privacy or some shit.

Laughing at telling regular people to use matrix…. Are you fucking kidding me?

@dansup https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/issues/5652 :awesome:

People need to stop reporting porn that is behind a Sensitive Content warning.... sir, you need to click the prompt to show the porn

Stop clicking the "please show me this porn" button.

@atomicpoet I love that somehow haven't followed a single person who has that kind of mindset.

I know it exists but I never see that discourse.

"The crisis consists precisely in the fact that the old is dying and the new cannot be born; in this interregnum a great variety of morbid symptoms appear." - Antonio Gramsci (maybe)

Welcome to the cool zone.

@dansup this is actually one of those things that we can offer to the ecosystem as a whole as well.
