HeriGibt es irgendwo eine gute Übersicht über die Mastodon-Server in der Schweiz?
Oder anders gefragt: Welcher Server in der Schweiz eignet sich für eine politische Organisation? Welcher auch längerfristigen Bestand verspricht?
@mweston has movedWhen I joined Mastodon and mindly.social in November 2022, a US-based server felt right. But political times have changed, and a non-US-based server seems like a better idea. I used https://mastodon.help/instances to search since it allows me to search on server size (I want a medium-sized server) and character limit (I like mindly.social's current 1500 character limit but their original 500 character limit was too restrictive -- this post is way over that). It also lets you see uptime statistics and other things, though it does not let you search on or even see the server country.
I'm considering ieji.de, though I don't currently follow anyone there and their uptime is slightly under 100%. Their privacy and green energy focuses are particularly appealing. kolektiva.social is interesting, but I can't tell where they're located. aus.social runs an alpha version of Mastodon (which isn't ideal) and mastodon.au only has an 98.14% uptime.
Anyone have any input on those particular servers, or changing servers in general?
Wordmark@Kissaki @sigmaklimgrindset it does? Not for long please donate to this #mastodonserver :( or #mastodonserver unleash the advertisement :( (no please not)
AmmiI need an assist. This instance is hosted by Spacebear. I want to move to a host who actually responds. Is there a way I can get a backup of my instance to move to a new server? Without actual server access...
Leonplanetearth.social has been updated to Mastodon 4.5.0.
This release introduces quote posts with a refreshed composer, improved reply updates in the web interface, an updated emoji set with cleaner rendering, and a new Posting Defaults settings page. Lots of polishing and fixes under the hood as well.
Have fun exploring the new features, and let me know if you spot anything unusual.
XAG.info 💻📱⚙️🖥🦣 Es braucht eine Smartphone-App von Mastodon, die als Instanz fungiert.
Das Problem ist Carrier Gerade NAT.
IPv6-Adressen könnten an SIM-Karten gebunden sein.
🖥️ Ein uralter iMac Core Duo dient via #Yunohost (#Debian #Bookworm) als #MastodonServer , beherbergt ein #WordPress und eine #NextCloud , administriert mit #Webmin – leider fehlt bisher eine Steuerung des Bildschirms, so dass ca. 10 Zeilen Linux-Start-Meldungen immer sichtbar sind, wodurch sich diese vermutlich einbrennen werden.
Per DualBoot läuft auch ein Debian #BullsEye, mit dem zur Not das primäre System repariert werden kann.
AdamWould love to join a #foss Mastodon instance? Any recommendations?

Ecologia Digital"I think the key is in its role as a #communityplatform. Every #Mastodonserver is its own #community, with its own norms, settings, standards, and ideals. We should stop calling them instances or servers, and treating them as homogenous nodes in a wider network.
#Mastodon should be the #WordPress of #decentralized #communities.
Each Mastodon-powered community should have its own look and feel—each with its own identity, design, tooling, and norms."
