I really hope they don't introduce new handle semantics tho at I see from the demo they are using &[email protected] as opposed to [email protected] that lemmy is already using and @[email protected] that most of the rest of the fediverse already supports to some extent

NodeBB v4.11.0 Release Notes

Hi everybody — late last week we released v4.11.0, which contains the following changes:

ActivityPub Specific Fixes

New pages have been added to the control panel to display analytics (send/receive counts) and error counts. There is also a new error page that will show error received within the last 24 hours, and their respective payloads. This will aid in debugging federation issues.

I am thrilled to announce that I’ve contributed a chapter to the new book, Digital Accessibility Ethics: Disability Inclusion in All Things Tech. Published earlier today!

This book explores the intersection of disability rights & the evolving tech landscape, and I’m honored to be included alongside so many brilliant voices in the field. If you are passionate about building a more inclusive digital world, this is a must-read!

By now you've all probably heard about the latest shenanigans from Google and their love for in-browser AI features (if you don't, this is the story: https://www.theverge.com/tech/924933/google-chrome-4gb-gemini-nano-ai-features).

Our team has been inspecting the Chromium code and disabling stuff from the very first version of Vivaldi (we have some posts about this in our blog, such as https://vivaldi.com/blog/news/alert-no-google-topics-in-vivaldi/ or https://vivaldi.com/blog/no-google-vivaldi-users-will-not-get-floced/).

We've also been very outspoken about our dislike of the built-in AI trend in the browser industry, but in case there's still any doubts: yes, we disable all Gemini-related features, and we've been doing it for a while.

It's less that atom/RSS is "dead", and more that its "done".

The protocol is finished. It works well. It's stable and unremarkable as opposed to trendy.

And to capitalists, that's "dead".

Nothing to hype, no wealth to extract.

Our @[email protected] demo is up! 🔥

We showed off Bonfire Mosaic and our ongoing work on federated groups and new publisher tools we’ve been co-designing with jacobin.de, including federated discussion threads that can be embedded on their existing website.

Built on our modular framework for community-governed digital spaces.
