(🤍 Nova) Dear fellow Misskey / Sharkey admins: I made a script to use in the Scratchpad in case you need or want to salvage cached files on the behalf of a particular user on a dead instance. I need to see if I can release it publicly, but I will gladly offer it upon request, as long as it is used to only salvage cached archives with the consent of the user in question.

Hi!

Can you please help this gay robot to federate their instance?

We are a tiny queer antifascist latin mastodon instance based in Argentina 

You can help by boosting and following (I post little)

#queer #antifa #latina #argentina #fediverse #fediadmin

Is there any sort of protocol on how to gracefully terminate a fediverse instance or do I just shut it down and go "we're offline now lol" and ¯\_(ツ)_/¯?

I'm asking because I set up a Pixelfed instance for my gf a while back and the software seems pretty awful and so we haven't really used it and we decided it's better to drop it than to sink money and time and effort into the hosting.

edit: fixed

#fediadmin do yall know of a good way of debugging why a GTS instance (fedi.cuties.zip) would be “invisible” to a Mastodon instance? the GTS instance sees the masto instance(s) i have tested, but not the other way around. meanwhile, akkoma, iceshrimp and many others have no problems whatsoever. it may be related to the instance not being reachable on v4 originally, but that should be resolved now. both masto instances report a 404 when queried very explicitly for a user on the GTS instance.

A fedi instance for cuties!

My friend rsync and I moved my little #snac to a different #hetzner Cloudserver with no downtime. The secret is: Prepare the move by setting the TTL for the DNS record to a few minutes a few days before the move. #snacyadmin #fediadmin

Wer könnte diese #guteIdee passend aufnehmen und weiter geben? Die #fediadmin #fediadmins ?

Für fedisocial.de habe ich ja die Idee, dass man sich z.B. per Mastodon registriert (mit Bestaetigung) und dann n8n daher geht und die zum Approval stehende Registrierung nutzt, um den User im LDAP-Backend einzurichten.

Das wuerde aber bedeuten, dass sich alle ueber Mastodon registrieren muessten, um einen Account im LDAP zu haben, auch wenn sie gar kein Mastodon nutzen wollen.

Hat sonst noch jemand eine Idee? Gibt es vielleicht ein Open Source Tool, was Registrierungen macht und den Account dann im LDAP provisionieren kann, z.B. per Script?

The Glitch-soc fork is cool but need some accessibility enhancements.
One of them is a setting to either show remaining character limit or type charactre count on the edit box, or even both.
this enhancement will be particularly helpful for instances that have higher character limit, and people often struggle to do the math to know how much they have typed.
and it'd be nice to have the quote post outside the more dialog.
also, number system to navigate to various sections of mastodon e.g. home, notification, search, profile, etc, will allow for faster switch.
the autocomplete dialog for usernames are quite sluggish to come up and and it's hard to access them with #screenReader.

We need more Blind people using the direct UI of the instance so that we can give constructive feedback to the dev to improve the experience further.

And now the question is: are the services still federating? Given it was basically a whole day offline (not really, but) some other services I'm subscribed to might have deleted my connection...
Only one way to find out: shout into the void and hope for the best.
