@apps Is there a way to disable the in-app release notes? While it's cool to follow the Fedilab development, I feel I see that little pop-up a bit (too) often.

@kiwa @reboot Backblaze upload speeds are still crap, but imo that's not a big issue for backup -- it's cheap, there's no rush to get everything on there in 1 night and I think it's otherwise pretty solid

New #blog: Tightening #security control over #mastodon public #api endpoints

The concern in fediblock around @cloy's #fedisearch plans earlier in the week prompted me to put my #infosec hat on and look into ways to make it harder for external #scrapers to hit Mastodon's API feeds.

Additionally (at least a few months ago) the "stock" apps didn't match the quality of some Mastodon-apps made by others.

"Mastodon: A Social Media Platform Dominated By Pedophiles & Childporn"

The #disinformation in this article is quite well done: The article gives itself an #investigative veneer, there are many links, alleged evidence and screenshots. Everything seems somehow conclusive - if you read too fast....

A71 downsides:
- My A71 is 4G only, no 5G.
- Having to wait for apps to load for a second or two when launching them. Doesn't feel snappy.
- Samsung's Android modifications are a bit hacky and bloated sometimes.
- Android 13 is the last major release for this device.

A71 upsides:
- Fewer opportunities for scratches vs. the aluminum camera bump on the Pixel 7 Pro.
- Still gets security updates for a while.
- Battery life is quite good.
- Happy with the screen & camera.

I've been wanting to buy a #GooglePixel 7 Pro all day today.

But after watching and reading through countless reviews, I think I might stick with my current daily driver: a Samsung Galaxy A71 from late 2019.

Help me decide!
