appviewappviewappview - after 6 months, I'm running what is, afaik, the first full-network bluesky appview - you can use it at zeppelin.social, query it at bsky.zeppelin.social, read about it at https://whtwnd.com/futur.blue/3ls7sbvpsqc2w, & help me keep it up for more than a few weeks at https://github.com/sponsors/futurGH
Mastodon EngineeringWe just shared our monthly engineering update from May - some big under-the-covers updates as we got ready to ship the first beta of Mastodon 4.4. Plus, a selection of links to cool projects from our community members. https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2025/06/trunk-tidbits-may-2025/
It should be said, and doing this in their free fucking time as a volunteer effort too.

I don't think it's possible to be where we are in #uspol (and in the global authoritarian slide) without our information ecosystems being such a mess. There's a ton of work to do on the distribution side of the problem, but also on the info-making side: Even great newsrooms aren't built to make the kind of knowledge we need in this moment, bc what they make are endless streams of atomized stories. And we ordinary people are all out here in the feeds trying to piece it together in our heads.

Happy to hear where others are migrating! (Self-hosted or not!)

Dan GoodinFolks, there is 0 evidence that Steam passwords have been breached. Unless and until credible evidence occurs, please do NOT urge people to change their login credentials and please do NOT boost other people's toots doing the same. Creating unjustified anxiety about a non event does a disservice to us all.
Please boost for visibility.
