Still trying to understand #Mastodon better, not because it's confusing, but rather every #instance / community / server feels different.

Fediverse Sustainability Survey

As part of the work on Fediverse sustainability announced earlier this year, the Social Web Foundation is running our first Fediverse Sustainability Survey . We're seeking operators, moderators and administrators of Fediverse sites, from the smallest to the largest, to fill out the anonymous survey and share information about how their instances work. If you help run an instance, please take the 10-15 minutes needed to fill out the survey. We need a lot of responses (hundreds!) to get […]

Az "eltűnésem" oka az, hogy #publikus #Mastodon szervert is készítettem, ahol saját beállítások vannak .
Például magasabb karakterlimit.

Remélhetőleg a #szerver minél tovább tud publikusan üzemelni.

Aki szeretne, (ott is) bekövethet. :)

Természetesen, ha a szerver valamiért ismét #privát lenne, akkor, marad ez a fiók a #random dolgaim megosztására.

There's "communities" for nearly everything on the #Fediverse. It is a strange misconception that a server software like Mastodon was something like a centralized #server #instance that was required to "allow" for anything, or could "prohibit" it, for everybody.

On the Fediverse, your server instance can allow or prohibit anything, just like any other instance. When your topic is hated on most other instances, there might be good reasons for that, though.

Still you can even run your very own instance fully dedicated to ShittyTopic™. It's just that nobody is obliged to listen to you, or to say friendly things about it, or to never block your instance.

norden.social steht bei mir auf der Abschussliste. Es fehlt echt nicht mehr viel bis zum Block.

Hey guys, you read my troubles with developing an ActivityPub / Mastodon multibot instance yesterday? Well, I got it working in the end and have already migrated four bots and added another two to it.

And here is the code that I open source now:

To those who’ve set up #followRequests: Don’t be surprised if you’re currently receiving lots of requests from accounts that appear empty or look familiar.

There’s a major wave of users #migrating, particularly away from mstdn.ca (hashtag). The admin 🧵 : https://mastodon.online/@[email protected]/116278549283984096
When someone migrates, the request is sent again and it takes a while for the #followers to appear on the new profile. It takes also time that you can see content. https://fedi.tips/transferring-your-mastodon-account-to-another-server/

🤣🤣🤣

They create an account on a #server for every single #hashtag in the #fediverse just so they can #boost every single hashtag that is tooted. 🤣🤣🤣

I don't manage an #instance (I ran a #BBS back in the day and that was enough for me) but I have to think this takes up server or processing resources.

Also, apologies to folks reading these toots with a #screenreader. I understand that it pronounces the word "hashtag" every single time a hashtag is used. I will eventually behave.

How do you #Mastodon #instance owners handle losing customization at the server file level after updating to the latest version? I'm currently using custom #sidekiq jobs to do this and keeping a record of what file goes where, and copies of them after the update completes that I've had to edit.
