Can we just start publicly shaming people who are on speaker in public? No one wants to hear your conversation and no one wants to hear your music.

Damn I probably have about 2-3 more hours of editing for this video talking about #Bluesky #Mastodon and #Threads! This whole video is gonna be close to an hour and I will have it on #YouTube. So if you haven’t already please subscribe https://youtube.com/@chiefgyk3d?si=isOiodpMm8i8fHLM

With all the issues Meta has had over the years there are still people licking their boots and favoring Threads. Personally I still prefer and plan to stay on #Mastodon and #Bluesky. #Threads was just kind of… there

Well this is F'd. Looks like #Bitwarden may not really be open source anymore... Bummer that was a huge reason I supported it. https://github.com/bitwarden/clients/issues/11611

Stop saving passwords in your browser! It is a security issue no matter what you think! Use a proper password manager and then just use an extension to use them in your password manager!

If you are behind these spam attacks on the fediverse... Your mom's a ho!

#fediverse #Mastodon

I really think there needs to be an implemention of shared blocklisting where we can federate blocks from sources we choose. Apparently Bluesky has some features related to this, and I think it needs to be revisited to help for some of these spam attacks. This is the second wave of spam attacks. It's still small, but it may amplify and become as problematic as a few months ago.

Setup a filter to deal with the new wave of spam attacks by just filtering the domain they repeatedly use.

This worked well with the last spam wave as well.

Would be really nice if we had some kind of a shared blocklisting/filtering feature similar to what Bluesky has rolled out as I can't keep blocking domains so fast as I am the sole Admin/Moderator for my server .

Diddy was arrested? Man I was really hoping for this generations slow chase in a Ford Bronco just like OJ did.

Some users need to really stop being so pushy and entitled. You put a ticket in on a Friday late in the afternoon, it's Monday morning. You probably should have planned better than late on a Friday.

Lack of preparation on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine.

@MastodonEngineering @EC_NGI this is pretty cool, and means it will be even easier to use Mastodon and such over time. As a small server for just me and a few friends this will be fantastic. I am already pretty well federated but this will make it by far easier in the future.

I am tinkering with Twitter/X on a dummy account to see how enshittified it has become. Wow, I literally only follow one account and have it set to notify from that account, and yet I get 5-6 notifications a day for accounts I never knew existed. All of them are Twitter verified. So that's how they are pushing more engagement and that waters down the whole point of notifications.

I’m close to fediblocking momostr.pink because there is one annoying person making reply guy bots just cloning messages and they’ve made multiple accounts to do it #fediblockmeta #mastoadmin

@BeAware nope that’s basically what I’ve been understanding too myself

So here’s the unfortunate reality:
Threads has about 130M users, they are planning to support ActivityPub it’s just in beta which will allow interoperability with Mastodon and etc.
Bluesky is 8.4M last I checked

Yes some fedi servers don’t want to federate with Meta but it’s an uphill battle RN for Bluesky

I feel like a lot of people hating on Mastodon in Bluesky don’t even know much about Bluesky sometimes 🙃

#bluesky #mastodon

@BeAware just sent the email, made sure to be super nice and just notate the offending email account.

You are certainly most welcome, as I do like the project and the idea of a Nostr bridge, and wouldn't want to see it get shut down for being associated as being spammy

@BeAware I am reaching out to them now, but it wouldn't help if more admins politely reach out.

@BeAware @npub1mw39wkkpdv07l3sp9vs22y80vrukpwxtykn07g7c58wf5py88nxqsaqyqj also seems like there may be an admin we can reach out to as well they have a gmail listed at the bottom https://momostr.pink/
