Si parla di #AirpodsPro 2, Robot per lavare pavimenti e dell'aperitivo a Cupertino tra #ElonMusk e #TimCook. Che cosa ci sarà di nuovo con i nuovi processori M2 di fascia professionale? La nostra esperienza su #Mastodon a distanza di quasi 2 settimane.
Pensieri e voli di fantasia sul futuro dei social network e la libertà di parola. Buon divertimento!

I just graphed Mastodon's MONTHLY ACTIVE USERS each day for the month of November.
At the end of October there were 496K active users, and at the end of November there are 2.6M -- that's 424% growth.
This is just ACTIVE users; there are millions more non-active accounts.
(For comparison, Twitter allegedly has 396.5M monthly active users, or about 152x the active userbase of Mastodon.)
Warning: Do not use Hive Social ⚠️🐝
We found multiple critical security vulnerabilities in the App, leaking private messages, posts, images and user data like phone numbers, emails and birthdates.
Dieser Artikel ist auch auf deutsch erschienen. Update: The vulnerabilities are currently no longer exploitable because Hive deactivated their servers. More details Following the Twitter takeover, a number of services promising to be an alternative gained traction. One of those is “Hive Social”, which reached more than a million users in the last weeks. Of course, we were interested and took a look at Hive from a security standpoint. We found a number of critical vulnerabilities, which we confidentially reported to the company. After multiple attempts to contact the company we finally reached them by phone and they acknowledged the report. After multiple days and multiple reminders by us, they claimed to fix them within the next two days. However after those two days, multiple vulnerabilities we reported were not fixed and still existed at the time of writing. ⚠️ We strongly advise against using Hive in any form in the current state.
Ever wished it was easier to view posts or profiles from another Mastodon instance on *your* instance, without any manual copy & paste?
I made Masto-Redirect, a shortcut that can redirect both account pages and individual posts to your own Mastodon instance.
Takes 1 minute to set up, can run on all Apple platforms. Free to download. Hope you'll find this useful: https://www.macstories.net/ios/masto-redirect-a-mastodon-shortcut-to-redirect-profiles-and-posts-to-your-own-instance/
Like many others over the past month, I’ve been thinking deeply about my experience with Twitter and whether I want to align my social media usage with the kind of platform Twitter is rapidly becoming. It’s a complex discussion (if my readers are still on Twitter, am I doing them a disservice by not using
Unfortunately I have to stop actively working on #Metatext for a while due to health issues. I really wish I could implement Mastodon 4 features and squash every bug, but it's not possible for me to do so right now.
I know the app has become important to a lot people, so I'm open to a new maintainer who can carry on its values of privacy and accessibility taking it over if there's interest and a fit. Email [email protected] if you (or your organization) are interested
