he did say that they're trying to figure out content delivery, but not specifically that's why it's not open source, just an educated guess based on that statement.

2025-02-23 21:54:30 UTC

- reply

I think he's trying to figure out content delivery so it doesn't overload the storage of other instances, therefore he can't open source it yet because it would come with the unfinished content delivery which could be devastating for Fedi.

no that's a universally agreed "point" to the way they're allowing people to remove their posts from the quote post feature they're building...🤨
If someone wants their post removed from the quote post, they'll be able to do that with the new feature.
Not with how the apps have it.

okay, it seems like I am doing good for the most part.
I do sometimes do the emoji thing when I'm very emotional about the topic I'm discussing, but now that you said that, I'll try to keep those to a minimum.
How about normal punctuations like dashes or hyphens, semi-colons, bullet points that are visually just a dot, and numbered lists?

2025-02-14 19:10:22 UTC

I follow and engage with lots of different people. Of which, some have various disabilities.
Sometimes I tend to forget which people I interact with are visually impaired.
It tends to make me feel bad when someone's interacting with my posts and I don't know or remembed if they're visually impaired and it worries me that some of my posts aren't screen reader friendly.
That being said, what are some things that screen readers have issues with, that might not be very obvious to a sighted person?
I'm thinking like emojis because of the way Fediverse handles them. Do they annoy you visually impaired people?
Are there other things that are annoying or just generally unpleasant to come across in a post while using a screen reader?
Thanks for any info you can provide.
I want my posts to be as accessible as possible and I'm always doubting that a lot of them are not.

2025-02-14 18:13:02 UTC

- reply

thanks!
I don't generally pick instances based on their intended purpose because I'm almost always interacting with people outside of the instance anyway.
Therefore, if the need arises, I'll think about you as I make my choice.
Much appreciated!😁

2025-02-14 18:09:12 UTC

If I end up shutting down this instance at some point, is there anyone willing to take me in that's familiar with me?
I need:
- At least 1,000 character limit
- Allows AI content.
- Doesn't block Threads or BridgyFed (willing to compromise on threads, given their recent moderation changes)
- Has to at least support the Mastodon API because I almost exclusively use IceCubesApp and Ivory.
- Reliability. I've been on Fedi for almost 2 years and I'd hate to have to move instances multiple times in a short period
Not seriously thinking about it yet.
Just getting a feel for if I have anyone who meets my needs that would be willing to have me, if I need it.
Thanks.🙏

facts. There's still time for clarification and possible correction if they're thinking of this route.
There's also other Fediverse software I can migrate to, that I wouldn't have to put up with that crap.
So there's options, I'm just a bit emotional right now in the moment cause this has been cooking for over a year and I've had the same concerns the whole time.
This has been on my mind since Threads came into existence because that's how threads does Quote Posts. If you want to link to another threads post on threads, it's automatically a quote post. Someone limits their quote posts?
Well then, you're not linking to it.

2025-02-14 16:25:21 UTC

Well...I think the writing is on the wall now for the end of my Fediverse journey.
Mastodon will implement the ability to stop someone from linking to your post.
Want someone to stop calling you out for being a shithead?
Just stop everyone from being able to link to your post!🤦‍♂️
Want to stop someone from showing evidence that your an asshole?
Yep. When this is implemented, I'm officially out.😒
Too many assholes on here to be able to feel comfortable not being able to call them out.

2025-02-14 15:26:26 UTC

Act like Mastodon is the only thing here and don't acknowledge that you made a mistake?
Easy block.🤦‍♂️
There's many of other platforms here and I bet those devs would like to see their software represented. Their users probably wouldn't mind feeling represented as well.🙃

2025-02-14 10:30:07 UTC

Is it just me or is reddit not as active as it used to be?
I mean, I actually don't even go there beyond 1 subreddit since the third party app debacle.
However, I hadn't noticed a drop off on that subreddit till recently and it's a decently popular meme related subreddit.
Maybe people finally realizing how shitty that company is and how it's literally built on user content and the users get no benefit.

There's already sufficient things in place to do that though. Just opt out of discovery features, turn on follow requests, and posts to "followers only"

Every Fediverse project that gets announced that has any sort of discovery features gets replies of harassment and threats to shut it down.
This has happened infamously to BridgyFed which caused the dev to make it "opt-in" only, which is why it's so useless right now. Then, FediOnFire which was just an aggregated public timeline made by Roni. And now more recently, Fedicate which was harassed and threatened till they changed the entire purpose of the project.

Hashtags don't relay content, just make content that is relayed more noticeable and in my experience, there's not enough relays to cover the network sufficiently.
I have to keep a mastodon.social account if I want to sufficiently keep up with things and that has to be done manually.

I just wish there was more discussion on certain topics and even if there was discussion of those topics, it'd be difficult to find because I'm on my own instance and there's barely any discovery features.

I hope you can find some answers though. The dev actually follows me, but he has been MIA for awhile unfortunately.

One thing I notice from Corporate social media, is I don't regularly come across random people that I've never interacted with, that have me blocked.😂
This is unique to Fediverse.
I regularly come across profiles I've never interacted with that have blocked me.
Stay offended, Fedi. I will continue to advocate for Fediverse and will fight against harassment of Fedi devs trying to build on an open platform.

I thoroughly enjoy Fediverse, I just REALLY wish I could get a closer experience to corporate social media and be able to follow game dev companies and such for game update info.
Don't think that'll ever happen at this point though, cause the Fedi mafia keeps making it hard to build anything useful here.😩

sorry, didn't mention I'm on iPhone and the only one they have is Sora and the UI just doesn't vibe with me.🤷‍♂️

Sharkey basically has no good active phone apps.

I wish I could host my own version of BridgyFed that's actually usable instead of this broken "opt-in" crap that was forced onto us by the Fedi Mafia.🙄
If you want to talk to people on Bluesky and they aren't bridged, just make a Bluesky account cause getting someone to bridge across platforms is next to impossible.

well..that's misinformation if I ever seen it...there's 30,000+ instances here. There's no "not allowing" posts about abortion pills. Unless mastodon.social is banning people based on Eugen's personal beliefs again...🤦‍♂️

so it's a bit janky, but you can post to Lemmy communities by mentioning them and formatting your post so it shows up correctly.
The first line is the title
The next lines are the body. I recommend mentioning the community and adding tags at the end so it doesn't get in the way.
To interact with Lemmy posts, you can follow the community, then all posts and comments will get boosted to your timeline. Posts only show up as a link, but you can open the link and read the post, then come back to mastodon to comment or interact with it. Remember to mention the community in your reply or it won't show up in the thread on Lemmy.
Hope this helps.🫡

at least you're honest "your time would be spent better elsewhere" . That's also what most devs say l when they start building on Fedi and start to get harassed by the Fedi mafia.🤦‍♂️
See: FediOnFire, the BlueSky bridge, and many more.
It's really not fun being here and hoping for a usable platform eventually and seeing every dev that's trying to help get harassed and threatened.
Fedi is so fractured because discoverability is non-existent and with the Fedi Mafia in tow, will continue to be non-existent.

They could have just served null stats instead of the hostile fake stats scheme.
Morals are out the window once the first hostile encounter happens. In this case, the hostility came from GTS devs.🤦‍♂️

facts. At this point, I feel like I'm on the verge of shutting down this instance and going back to BlueSky and Twitter.
The good people here keep getting fucked over by the assholes that keep harassing developers trying to build on an OPEN protocol.🤬

This has been happening for YEARS on this site.
Just last month @npub1zdf…6u9l got bullied into shutting down FediOnFire, which was just an aggregated "public timeline".
Starting to REALLY resent this place.

Fedi Mafia strikes again?!? What the fuck!
People really need to fuck off and let devs build on this platform. 🤬

Am I the only one that tends to use the same hashtags from time to time?
If not, do you type them out every single time? It's what I do and it's getting tiresome.
I've been begging Fedi app devs for a feature I call a "hashtag drawer" where individual hashtags with CamelCase can be saved in the composer for re-use.
The closest I've gotten is Ivory saving CamelCase hashtags that are "featured" on your profile.
I've been begging for this kind of feature for over a year now and still haven't found a suitable solution.
Is it REALLY not possible?🤨😩

I signed up a few days ago, but have yet to receive my email.

not based on the reply I got from the Fedica admin.
Apparently people like me, who don't wanna see corporate shilling on Fedi, are the reason why so many people flocked to Bluesky🙄🤦‍♂️
Their words, not mine.

2025-02-05 17:42:15 UTC

Like, if you're on BlueSky instead of Fedi after coming from another corporate platform and don't see the writing on the wall from your previous experience, I genuinely feel embarrassed for you.😳

it doesn't work for Fediverse. There's 30,000+ servers. Good luck to them.😂
However, if they start harassing Fediverse admins for this, most will just move their server outside of the US and a LOT have already started doing so preemptively.🤷‍♂️

For awhile, I was able to put my emotions and creativity to use with the help of AI.
But now that pretty much everyone labels everything with AI as "slop", I feel I have very little ways to express my emotions and creativity now.
I guess my emotions are just "slop".😔

absolutely! Welcome to learning about Pleroma MRF policies that don't give a fuck about your "privacy" :kek: they even have a policy to ignore delete requests from other servers.
"Oh? You thought you deleted that embarrassing post? Heh, NOPE!"
Yet people are worried about public timelines that every fucking instance has.
Give me a break.🤦‍♂️
