JWZ: "I prefer to meet people where they are" says reasonable-sounding white dude holding court at a table in the back of a Nazi Bar, redux.

  • Loops is not open source lmao, its just Dansup promising that he'll opensource it in an eventual future.

    Saying "this platform is not actually open because the people running it are bad, come to these actually open platforms", and then proceed to list a closed-source platform is incredibly funny

    • Free Our Feeds: "it will take independent funding and governance to turn Bluesky’s underlying tech—the AT Protocol—into something more powerful than a single app"

  • There are multiple other relays running, and its pretty cheap nowadays, lowest I've seen is someone running a full network non-archive relay for 23usd/month

    • Is Funkwhale dead?

  • do you have a link by any change to where the dev is saying that? it seems very likely considering the lack of activity, but cant find anything on his profile or blog

    • POSTPONED

    Loops by Pixelfed • Public beta launching in 16 hours

    • A post from Mastodon, that's supposed to reach all the Fediverse

  • hello from piefed!

    • To give perspective on the 48k monthly active users on Lemmy, and the 4.5k on kbin+mbin, Discuit has 6787 registered users

  • PieFed represent! Highly recommended, the 'Topics' feature that aggregates multiple community is super valuable to me

    • Bluesky backs a project that would let Mastodon apps, like Ivory, work with its network

  • So confused that skybridge is now getting all the media attention lol. Its been around for over a year and hasnt been updated for 3 months. It works fine, its just that nobody actually bothered to use it. Not really clear how 800 dollars is going to make a difference here.

    They couldve just checked the repo lol.

    • Whats the state of algorithms on Mastodon?

  • Check out Phanpy.social for the Catch-up algorithm, which allows you to fully customise and sort your feed.

    For a real 'For You' algorithm that suggests posts by people you dont follow, check out SoraSNS on iOS. That has a fully customisable algorithm where you can completely customise the topics the algo recommends, as well as how likely each topic is to be recommend.

    • Permanently Deleted

  • Piefed has this, and it's great!

    • What's your take on Bluesky?

  • It is worth noting that what they posted in their business plan in July 23 (1) differs quite a bit from what Jay Graber mentioned as their business plan in an interview with The Verge in Feb 24 (2), which again differs on quite a few points from what Jay Graber mentioned in a podcast with The Verge in March 24 (3).

    • The perfect Lemmy app?

  • piefed has quickly become my main threadiverse driver. its really nice

    • Tear Down Walls, and Build Bridges

  • Threads has implemented both ActivityPub implementations of quote posting: it uses the Misskey quote posting system, and also implemented fep-e232 (which is a better version of quote posting, but not implemented by any major platform), so that they are already immediately compatible with platforms that use the FEP version.

    Mastodon ignores the current implementations of quote posting, and wants to do their own new implementation so that they can add granular control.
