So on the official #matrix page it says there are no bridges for #activitypub is this the case or is it there’s no official ones. Would love to hear from anyone with experience.

@npub1tcc…4342 I just tried emailing you from he link on your site "contact-sales@element.io" and it bounces back can you advice please?

@npub12r3…zz58 @npub1fh7…ee83 I’ve written an open source super light weight Pages server for forgejo based on traefik with loads of extra features not on “other” sites/forges/hubs/labs.I know you are looking at building your v3 pages server and thought this might be useful it scales and is capable of a distributed deployment. https://bovine.squarecows.com let me know what you think 🙏

Is it me or is this font slightly familiar? and both names starting with Z, my brain can't unlink these things.

by far the best newsletter I’ve read recently is https://selfh.st I’m not using rss but I’m sure they must.

@npub1fh7…ee83 it says in the documentation to reach out to you folks if we are thinking of deploying codeberg pages. So here I am reaching out 🙋‍♂️ . I'm going to attempt to dockerise it also!

Are #framework computers an American company?

Hmm my neighbours are drilling into my garage wall, and I’m ok with putting up trellis or whatever but also pissed off they didn’t ask and are just drilling my property without consideration of electrics or the water integrity of the building as it’s only single brick. What do I do! #AskFedi

@npub13fk…z5hw @npub1ytc…gytl i so wish you had an API so I could push content urls to my magazine from a central managed tool! What would it take to consider opening your API to developers?

I was thinking about clustering the other day. It’s there anything special you need to do apart from some form of load balancer.

2025-01-22 16:35:59 UTC

does this automatically train on your files or collect other data? Wondering how it can be free without ms making a loss.

2024-12-10 23:16:08 UTC

@npub15wd…rte4 do you have any plans to let people request to join a starter pack and then allow the owner of that list to say yes or no? Just thought it would be a killer feature!

2024-12-09 14:14:07 UTC

I pushed a new version of the #docker image for #mastodon with @npub1zdf…6u9l updated version of bird-ui and it's looking good: https://hub.docker.com/r/richarvey/mastodon-bird-ui/tags

2024-12-04 09:57:47 UTC

If you want to run #mastodon in a container and would like to use @npub1zdf…6u9l excellent bird-ui the new v4.3.2 image has just dropped! Go get it #docker #mastoadmin https://hub.docker.com/repository/docker/richarvey/mastodon-bird-ui/general

the pi400 imho should have a swappable cm 4/5 inside. Reduces on e waste also!

2024-10-29 22:45:52 UTC

@npub1rfc…7tmz in theory would it be possible to build a plugin that would let a user to export all pages in a design to html/css and upload directly to object storage like S3 or minio? I'm thinking that way penpot could publish static websites!

2024-10-29 14:37:00 UTC

@npub1zq8…44y6 any updates on the next release with openID login support. I'm eagerly waiting :) (and actively support)

may I suggest sticking a redirect in for people who will miss this post if possible?

2024-10-22 19:02:34 UTC

All using compose and a traefik reverse proxy. I'll write it up and share soon. #mastoadmin #foss

take a look at bird-ui from @npub1zdf…6u9l who’s included some high contrast features to help his partner. I’ve included it in this docker image of it helps: https://hub.docker.com/r/richarvey/mastodon-bird-ui

hello @npub1xse…lgk3 So I've found your awesome #fediverse icons. Now I do have a question, I hope you don't mind. I would like to import them into custom icons for a font awesome kit. But when doing so it throws an error about "strokes" I'm gessing i have to flatten??? the object, will that make them importable?

2024-08-20 14:28:23 UTC

Version 4.2.12 is now available on docker hub including @npub1zdf…6u9l bird-ui enhancements. Go pull it and update! #mastoadmin

2024-08-03 21:26:17 UTC

@npub1zdf…6u9l with your knowledge of mastodon CSS when using your awesome theme is there an easy way to override the mastodon logo???? #pleasehelp
