#Tusky also... ;-)

@copdeb

#Tusky is using the #Mastodon client #API. So maybe #Pixelfed isn't 100% compatible here...

@EUCommission @EDPS

What is the difference between the old and the new instance?

And why do you decide to create a new one?

@apps

Could this be also related to this effect?

@libreoffice @tdforg

Do we have some way to get a real version number somewhere?

@damtux
@erAck

Thanks for the #URL.

I'm aware of the change from major.minor to year.month, but this means, #LibreOffice will not provide a real version number in the future, as a release date doesn't tell anything about major.minor or what to expect from a release.

And it looks like they discussed between 24.02 and 24.2...

But is 24.2 a version like 7.7 or a next generation like 8.0?
And what about 24.8?

@damtux @erAck @libreoffice @tdforg @italovignoli

Already had some conversation in the past with #LibreOffice via #Fediverse.

I miss real versions numbers, that are useful on technical level.

That's why i asked, if there is somewhere one... hidden under the hood... ;-)

Advertising should maybe be separated from engineering... :-)

But i don't wanted to start a heavy or intense discussion... :-)

@Gargron

Which "ad-free, privacy-friendly platform" do you have in mind, if and when #Meta would control the majority of the users?

Some of my thoughts (in German):

@libreoffice @nick@hhmx.de

Funny... for me you start now with arbitrary numbers... 😉

What about using something like "Edition 2023, Version 7.6"?

And btw. i assume, it is possible to develop add-ons for #LibreOffice... how do they check a matching version? As something like "works with 7.x" (checking on major version 7 in the source code) would be no longer possible, right?

And are you sure, that end users will recognize 24.2 as February 2024? 😉

@libreoffice @nick@hhmx.de

Two new generations a year? ;-)

This is a valid point... information to end users... but what about information to engineers and administrators? Something to offer both?

And hopefully, the version number was never "arbitrary"... it should tell me, that for example 7.6 is the seventh generation as seventh minor update (including six minor updates). Indicates also some maturity... :-)

Btw.: I still have 6.4.x here... on a Linux LTS...

@libreoffice @nick@hhmx.de

Thanks for replying.

I like to have version numbers, that includes information to an engineer.

I don't like version numbers, that are just used for advertising purposes.

https://semver.org/

And btw. "mature"... does that mean, you will now switch to maintenance only?

@libreoffice @nick@hhmx.de

It's not the same... it is major.minor compared to year.month... the date of the release is telling nothing about the version.

Is 24.2 just a minor update (like 7.7) or a new major generation (like 8.0)?

@feditips

Not using #Wordpress, but hosting own projects.

What are the suggestions of your hosting provider?

Any details about your hosting and the attack?

@quoidian @feditips

You login to your instance... any app will then just get a token to authorize access to your account. So an app will not know your credentials...

So logging in to your instance should be independent from any app.

@spacewizard

This feature was introduced with #Mastodon 4.2.0. Your instance is running v4.2.1, so you should find an option to make a list exclusive.

@feditips

@spacewizard

Yes, should be. An option for a list to not show on your home timeline.

@feditips

@spacewizard

Good question!

Didn't try that yet... :-)

@feditips

@PatrickEmmick

On the website of your instance check out the about section.

E.g. https://norden.social/about

At least, if your instance is running #Mastodon.

The bookmark feature allows you to mark selected posts for yourself.
