Oh man did I just steal this thing or what!? Assuming this store is honest in the ad and all is good.

I'm having trouble deciding if I should put it to work as the new node/redis server for Misskey, or flip it for profit. What do ya think?

Have there been any statements from fediverse admins on how they'd handle certain people, organizations, or government agencies that have generated controversy on Bluesky in the past, or, say, today?

#FediAdmins #MastoAdmins #fediverse

Mal eine Frage an die Mastodon Instanzbetreiber. Was habt Ihr so als Serverausstattung und wie viele Nutzer habt Ihr so im Schnitt auf euren Instanzen?

Wieso taucht dieses 3 Jahre alte PeerTube Video bei mir in der Timeline auf? Sowas hatte ich neulich schon mal und @ivory meinte es wäre bestimmt weil ich einem hashtag folgen würde, welches wohl auf der original Plattform wäre, Mastodon aber nicht anzeigen […]

FediIndex Detailed Fediverse statistics

🦉 PSA - with earthstream.social disappearing I almost lost Owls in Towels, but they are reconstituted at @owlsintowels

Recommend #FediAdmins / #MastoAdmins purge the earthstream.social domain, no self-destruct was sent as far as I can tell.

@AlsoPaisleyCat Maybe it would be helpful if instances manually approve new accounts (or use another form of verification — on our site, for example, you have to provide an account number before it gets activated). Yes, that might mean you’ll soon no longer be “one of the largest instances in […]

Screenshot of Bluesky. A moderation list that allowed users to label (and thus avoid) transphobic accounts has been administratively hidden for supposedly violating terms of service

It was always bound to happen, but it appears that Bluesky’s CEO is currently pulling an elon and targeting users who call her out or who label others as transphobes.

Attached is an example of the latter.

#fediadmins , there are a lot of scared queers on […]

@blog Wer selbst einen Mastodon-Server betreibt und mal nachsehen will, wie die Verteilung der lokalen Konten ist:

select discoverable, count(*) from accounts WHERE domain is null group by discoverable;

What the #fediverse really needs is a mailing list (out-of-band) for all #instance #admins and operators. Something like #NANOG for network operators.

And no, Discord is not acceptable. Discord has HUGE privacy, trust, security, and safety issues.

Is a 24 MiB video file too large to share on fedi? Not technically but trying to be polite. #FediMeta #FediAdmins

🐘 Hi #FediAdmins & #SelfHosting folks!
I'm considering migrating my single-user #Mastodon instance (Docker-based) to #GoToSocial for lower resource usage and a more minimal backend.

One big question: Is there any way to transfer my old posts (toots)?
GoToSocial - like many Fediverse platforms - […]

Hi Fedi, I have an opportunity to create a new social community, but for people that are not "libre-savvy". Most of them are skilled professionals, artists in their 30s, but also lively people that might want to share family anecdotes or funny stories.

What software would you recommend? I was […]

Hallo ihr lieben,

für ein ehrenamtliches Festival suche ich nach etwas Netzwerkhardware.
Vor allem 2-3 100+ Meter lange Strecken Glasfaserkabel (LC Duplex OM1/2 reicht vollkommen) sowie evtl. 2-3 1Gb/s Switche mit SFP+ Modulen für 1Gb/s

Wie wir letztes Jahr festgestellt haben überlastet das […]

We seriously need the equivalent of the #NANOG for #FediAdmins and #InstanceOperators. Anybody working on that? We're happy to host and manage (under our BOFH umbrella) if people want. An out-of-bands communication channel for all #instance operators is grossly needed. #MastoAdmin #LemmyAdmin […]
