Sailfish Community News, 14th December, Nix

Sailfish OS update from Jolla It is that time of year again! On behalf of Jolla, let me extend warm and heartfelt greetings to each and every member of the Sailfish OS Community.

There is no rational reason for Mastodon to limit posts to 500 characters by default.

If the limit was 100s of KB, people who still wanted to divide every thought up into a thread still could; nothing stopping them.

But if someone wanted to post a gigantic essay, they also could, and I'd see a little "More >>" link and I could ignore them faster.

We have decades of history proving that length limits do not make people concise: they just make people post threads.

Projects like Spritely and Veilid point to a future of the DWeb beyond blockchain and federation.

Spritely and Veilid: Exciting Projects Building the Peer-to-Peer Web

While there is a surge in federated social media sites, like Bluesky and Mastodon, some technologists are hoping to take things further than this model of decentralization with fully peer-to-peer applications. Two leading projects, Spritely and Veilid, hint at what this could look like.There are...

Begging instance admins not to defederate with Threads, at least not YET. If you want to grow the Fediverse, you have to start somewhere, even if it's with Meta.
