The network of Mastodon servers is the Mastoverse.
(The Mastoverse is a subset of the Fediverse. The Fediverse is made up of more than just Mastodon servers.)
A person on the Mastoverse is a Mastonaut.

This is pretty what many (including myself) suspected would happen with these LLM SaaS services — that they would become spyware.
And, not just that, but — that they would take spyware to another level.

I used a custom Internet-domain for a Codeberg Pages (static) website, but am getting an error.
The DNS (CNAME) we set up seems to work fine.
Also, Codeberg Pages seems to successfully redirect from HTTP to HTTPS.
But, when I go to the HTTPS version of the website, I get that error.
...
Has anyone else seen this Codeberg Pages error before?

I want a way to have a user-experience over a Fediverse "Group" that looks more like a Signal or Telegram group chat.
I know it is doable. Someone just needs to implement it.
(Maybe I will if no one else does it by the time I "finish" my current Fediverse projects.)

1/
In some ways it is unfortunate that the word 'Decentralization' has become a short-hand for the three ideas:
Decentralization, Federation, Localization
Some know that all the ideas are important — and that 'Decentralization' is a short-hand for all three.
But, many don't!

That seems to be mostly true.
But, there does seem to have been some progress made with Bluesky, with respect to this
For example, Blacksky — which, as I understand it — has its own mobile app, AppView, relay, and PDSes.

Will stories show up in the user's ActivityPub outbox?
I.e., could someone not using Pixelfed potentially see someone else's story, too?
(Which, I think would be cool.)

Paraphrasing:
Twitter's home-feed was great back when it was recommended posts just outside of you social-network.
Ex: showing things people you follow Interneted with — favorited, commented to, etc.

What I mean is —
WAFRN didn't have to have its own back-end, and could have just plugged into any back-end that supported the ActivityPub client-server API, or the Mastodon client-server API.
If that was the case, you could continue to use your Firefish, Mastodon, or whatever account.

Yeah. I brought my family with me on this trip, too.

Would you prefer that YOU ARE HIDDEN on the Fediverse?
That nobody (new) ever follows you?
That nobody (new) ever sees your posts?
I KNOW THIS QUESTION SEEMS WEIRD, BUT — THERE IS A SMALL GROUP THAT IS CURRENTLY ARGUING MOST PEOPLE ON THE FEDIVERSE WANT TO BE HIDDEN IN THIS WAY
They don't represent me. And I don't think they should (even implicitly) speak for me
IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE HIDDEN LIKE THIS — PLEASE VOTE "NO"
Please boost for reach.

I should mention that there are other criticisms of Bluesky not being decentralized yet.
• https://plc.directory/ DID-PLC resolution,
• bsky.app AppView,
• etc.

In Bluesky, each user's data is stored in something called a PDS — personal data server.
A Relay receives new content from all or some subset of PDSes, and aggregates them into a single stream.
Applications then connect to a Relay to get new Bluesky data (rather than connecting to the individual PDSes).
...
Relays are important to how Applications are created on Bluesky.
...
The Fediverse does have something called a "relay", too. But it works differently and is used for different things.

2024-11-28 04:41:22 UTC

One of the criticisms against Bluesky as a (potential) decentralized social-media (DeSo) network is — regarding Relays.
That, although there technically could be many different Relays provided by many different (separate) people and groups —
In practice, there is only one provided by the Bluesky team. (Thus, Bluesky not decentralized)
That doesn't seem to be true anymore. There is now a 2nd person providing a Relay.
