Good morning, all! The server appears to be stable enough that I'm reopening account requests for hcommons.social. I am likely to space out approvals a bit to be sure that things remain stable.

We are still looking into ways of recovering some of the missing data. In the meantime, do alert folks who followed you since 11/17 that they might see you in their following lists but they may want to unfollow and refollow to ensure a proper connection.

More as we know it. And happy Friday, in the meantime!

As the #Fediverse expands it will get increasingly complicated reconciling different terms of service, moderation policies, etc.

I wonder if some clearly defined standards will emerge? Sorta like the way Creative Commons standardized certain #copyright licenses, and that promoted #interoperability.

Is this kind of approach already in the works?

All right, #IIIF community on Mastodon, please boost this post!

I've just set up a list: the International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF) on Mastodon: https://julsraemy.ch/mastodiiif/.

This list and offers an easy method to follow multiple accounts at once. You can can either download the full CSV or decide which account you would like to follow.

You can add your name using this form: https://forms.gle/MxCR4zZrrxfvhKke9. This could also be interesting for #digitalhumanities, #culturalHeritage and #glam folks @iiif @dh

Seven years ago, a fellow named "MIDI_MAN" compiled 130,000 unique MIDI files by browsing a ton of sites, placing them into directories, and generally assembling years of MIDI music.

Now that collection (1gb compressed, 3.5gb uncompressed, 130,000 files for real!) is at the Internet Archive at this URL:
