@dansup I need it for some older scripts that use mysql (not mysqli), but 8.x does the same. The maintainer seems to have deleted all the packages, and their index as well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I'm adding new profile fields to #Smithereen, so I would like to ask the fediverse about what kinds of contact info one would expect to be able to add to their profile. So far I've seen: - Personal website/blog - Matrix - XMPP - Telegram - Signal - Phone number - Twitter - Email
I've not yet seen these in fediverse profiles but they are mainstream enough that won't hurt to add: - Instagram - Facebook - VKontakte - Snapchat - Discord
Since reposts/boosts are now stored as actual posts, albeit with a bunch of special-case handling in many places, they now appear in profiles too.
Smithereen's native type of repost will be the "quote-post", the one that creates its own separate comment thread. All this is specifically for compatibility with the rest of the fediverse predominantly using the Announce activity for reposting.
#Smithereen 0.7 is out, finally making it practical to run a server with open signups.
This release brings too many changes to list here, both internal and external. - All-new moderation tools: role-based permissions, revamped reports, new ways of limiting user accounts, and so much more! - All-new media storage: Smithereen now keeps track of references to files, simplifying the code, and adds support for S3 object storage. - Tens of minor bug fixes and UX improvements.
Is there an #ActivityPub server where I need to parse HTML for <link type="application/activity+json" href="..."/> to get to the JSON representation of an object? I want to add support for this in #Smithereen but I need something to test against.
I like my approach with deactivation period better than what others do. For example, @pixelfed deletes accounts immediately and it turns out people change their minds on this stuff sometimes.
And with it, the complete federation feature parity with Mastodon. New features include: - Direct messages - Privacy settings - Followers-only posts (from other servers)
