how to kill decentralized networks (by ploum) — i just read this article, very interesting. i never thought meta's involvement with fediverse could be this dangerous. and i never knew this details about google and xmpp.

tootik communities — I've been working on support for 'communities' in tootik. [https link] tootik is currently more like Mastodon, it's based on the idea of users that follow specific users and see a feed of activities by these followed users. Unlike Mastodon, tootik has some special handling for special "Group" users, like Lemmy or kbin communities: when you view the profile of such a user, tootik displays threads and sorts threads by last activity, instead of displaying all posts (...

Has anyone built a Gemini Fediverse server? — I just discovered Gemini today, and it is a fascinating approach to the Internet. One possibility that seems interesting is to build a Fediverse server with a Gemini front-end. It would have the following properties: Identity would be a Gemini certificate. The identity would be communicated in ActivePub as a hash/fingerprint of the public key. For example as @uyzwisfenxq3ydha@gemini.social Posts would be just Gemini input (10) requests with all the...

If I wiped my instance database (so all users, posts and follows are lost), then re-created my user, is there any mechanism (a FEP?) to make all of my followers re-follow me? Otherwise, the rebuilt instance doesn't know who's following me and won't send my posts.

Re: Notes on Running Mastodon [🐻] — I think if you're going to import a block list you should do your own research on it, but block lists are easy enough to find with some searching. I must say I agree wholehearteldly. You can use tooot.im's for reference as for the reasons (without actual evidence, we don't save these)

Sup — TLDR: annoucnment of a new fedi based (and Signal protocol based) IM: "sup. is an open source encrypted fediverse instant messenger, similar to whatsapp, made by pixelfed. The beta will be launching later this month, and btw most fediverse accounts will work, not just Pixelfed 😉" It will be Signal protocol based [https link]

is the fedi instance identified by some cryptographic key pair? what if one replaces fedi software on the same domain? let's say i find a way to figure out and migrate the database of socialhome i host to tootik or gotosocial. or i just replace socialhome with gotosocial on the same domain. does each fedi instance also have some keypair that also has to be migrated, so that new instance on the same domain would be accepted by other fedi instances that already established connection with...

Fedi update and thoughts: sloth.run now runs on Firefish 1.0.4 . Everything's fine and dandy. I'll probably put a stop to free registration soon, though. I can't handle too much moderation/admin and I don't want people to get the feeling that I'm not there for them. Somehow I am now an admin or moderator in 3 different fedi communities. I'm curious about the lesser known fedi software like Hubzilla, Takahe, Ocelot. By my counting I have 8 different Fediverse accounts. The fediverse is...
