Welcome to this week’s The Programmer’s Fulcrum.

It’s your weekly review of the essential news in the Open Media Network and Fediverse development communities with a focus on devastating big tech via Techno Anarchism. We aim to provide actionable content you can use to destroy Techno Feudalism each week. It has the additional benefit of weakening authoritarianism.

IMHO, the best way to do […]

Prepping local and broad #hashtags for covering our town's #NoKings event. Is there anyone coordinating or #media who wants to be tagged in updates?

I'll be putting primary tags on top for the Bsky #bridgyfed bridge so they are not truncated, the rest below.
Will try to to do alt tags on photos, but its difficult to stop and tag in real time at a protest, so some may be added later, sorry.

Any other advice for protest coverage on fedi?

a #fediverse platform that deserve some love is #NeoDB for tracking media consumption

works nice, produce some cool web user profiles, integrate also with #bluesky and can even be bridged with #bridgyfed

If you're more active on #Bluesky than you are here and would like to follow me there, I have an account, but I've also re-enabled the #BridgyFed bridge to mirror my Mastodon posts over there, because a lot of what I post here exceeds the Bluesky character limit and it's annoying to try and manage both accounts with different rules. This mirrors to Bluesky, with a link to the original post.

This seems to be a week for new weird projects. I followed the thing that enables this and also enabled it for my #FediBridge version of my blog. We'll see how it goes. Since the webmentions and boosts go back to the website that might be busy. I might have to figure out if #BridgyFed can mute a user.

通知が来なかった時のために、DM通知にあるリンク以外にも直接Bridgy Fedのリアクション用ページを開くことができる機能があるといいなぁ。

うーん、Bridgy Fedでブリッジ先の投稿にブリッジしていないアカウントから返信があるとDM通知してくれる機能、不安定なのかな〜。
来たり来なかったりする…というか、来てないことに気がついて改めて通知を有効にするコマンドを送るとまた来るんだけど、またいつの間にか来なくなる…という繰り返し。
一定期間経つと勝手に通知ミュートになってしまう…？
もしくはFedibird特有の現象なのかなぁ…。
